Eaton P164-000-8K6 Tripp Lite HDMI Coupler F F 8K 60Hz Black
The Eaton P164-000-8K6 is an HDMI female-to-female coupler designed to join two HDMI cables and create one longer HDMI connection. It supports high-resolution HDMI applications up to 8K at 60 Hz while remaining backward compatible with earlier HDMI generations.
8K 60Hz HDMI Connectivity
The P164-000-8K6 supports Ultra HD resolutions up to 7680 x 4320 at 60 Hz with 36-bit Deep Color and 4:4:4 chroma. It also supports HDR and HDCP 1.4/2.2 for compatible high-resolution video applications.
Female-to-Female HDMI Coupler
Both ends of the coupler are HDMI female receptacles, allowing two HDMI male-ended cables to be connected together. This provides a straightforward way to extend an existing HDMI cable installation without replacing the original cable with a longer one.
Key Features
- HDMI female-to-female inline coupler
- Supports up to 8K at 60 Hz
- Supports 4:4:4 chroma and 36-bit Deep Color
- HDR and HDCP 1.4/2.2 support
- Gold-plated connectors and contacts
DC Supplies Product Note
The P164-000-8K6 is useful when an existing HDMI cable run needs additional length without replacing the installed cable. For an 8K/60Hz connection, both connected HDMI cables and the source/display equipment need to support the required bandwidth; the coupler itself does not upgrade a lower-specification cable.
Applications
- Conference room HDMI installations
- Digital signage connections
- Home theater and AV systems
- PC-to-display HDMI connections
