The UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable in the 5m length is available at Mascom International for KSh 1,600, brand new and sealed in its UGREEN retail box. This black male to male lead carries 4K pictures at 30Hz and Full HD video, along with Dolby and DTS sound, between two HDMI ports up to five metres apart. Inside, tin-plated copper conductors sit under three layers of shielding: aluminium foil, a braid and a ground wire. Both plugs on the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable are 24K gold-plated to resist corrosion. Pick one up at Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, in Nairobi CBD.
Built for families, home cinema fans and church media volunteers across Kenya, the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable fixes a common room-layout problem. The DStv or GOtv decoder sits on the TV stand, yet the projector hangs from the ceiling or the television is mounted on the opposite wall. The short lead packed with most decoders cannot cover that gap. Five metres can run up a wall, across part of a ceiling and down to a projector in a typical sitting room. In a small church, the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable links the front-table laptop to an overhead projector with no joints to work loose mid-service.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unmarked cables with no stated rating, Mascom International stocks the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable with a clear resolution rating for every length. Customers across Nairobi tell us the 5m run is the size they choose once a 3m lead falls a metre short. For 4K at 60Hz from a PS5 or Xbox Series X, a 3m or shorter run stays the safer pick, and we will say so at the counter.

Common Questions About the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable
How much is the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m in Kenya?
The UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m costs KSh 1,600 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That price covers the sealed cable in UGREEN packaging, a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery across Kenya. It sits KSh 700 above the 3m version at KSh 900 and KSh 1,200 below the 10m version at KSh 2,800. Measure your run first, then add half a metre of slack so the plugs never hang under strain.
Will the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m reach a ceiling-mounted projector?
In most Kenyan sitting rooms, the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m reaches a ceiling projector from a decoder or laptop placed near the wall. Add the distance up the wall, across the ceiling and down to the projector bracket. A room with a 2.7-metre ceiling and a projector two metres out from the wall uses close to the full five metres. If your total passes about 4.5 metres, step up to the 10m UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable, which adds a built-in signal amplifier.
Does the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m support 4K at 60Hz for a PS5?
Mascom International rates the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m for 4K at 30Hz, not 60Hz, so treat it as a 4K film and decoder cable. UGREEN's own tables disagree on the 5m figure, and we only promise what we can stand behind. A PS5 or Xbox Series X running 4K at 60Hz is better served by the HD104 in 3m or shorter, rated HDMI 2.0 at 18Gbps. For Netflix, Showmax and DStv viewing, 30Hz is plenty, because films and broadcasts use lower frame rates.
UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m or UGREEN ED015 HDMI Flat Cable 5m: which should I buy?
The UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m costs KSh 1,600, while the UGREEN ED015 HDMI Flat Cable 5m costs KSh 2,000 at Mascom International. Both carry 4K at 30Hz at this length. The ED015 is a flat ribbon, 4.0 by 11.5mm, that lies under a rug or along skirting boards without a bump. The round HD104 saves KSh 400 and suits runs hidden in trunking, above a ceiling board or behind furniture. Pick the flat ED015 only when the cable stays visible along a floor or wall.
Is the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m safe with KPLC power surges and Nairobi dust?
The UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m needs no power supply of its own, and its triple shielding blocks interference from nearby power cables. Surges after a KPLC outage usually harm the HDMI ports on the decoder or TV rather than the cable, so plug both devices into a surge protector. Dust is the bigger threat to the plugs, and the 24K gold plating resists the corrosion that dusty, humid air causes. Unplug and blow out the ports every few months for a clean picture.
Does the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m carry sound to a soundbar?
The UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m supports ARC, the Audio Return Channel, which sends TV sound back to a soundbar or home theatre receiver over the same cable. It also passes Dolby and DTS surround audio from a decoder or Blu-ray player. That helps when the soundbar sits under a wall-mounted TV and the receiver sits across the room. Turn on ARC in the TV's sound settings, then choose the soundbar as the audio output, and the extra optical cable disappears.
Is the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m long enough for a small church projector?
For a small church or fellowship room, the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m covers a laptop on the front table feeding a projector mounted just above the pulpit area. Church media teams in Nakuru, Eldoret and Nairobi estates often start with a 3m lead and find it short once the cable climbs a pillar. Five metres usually covers that climb with room to spare. Where the sound desk sits at the back of the hall, the run grows well past ten metres, and the 15m version suits it better.
Who should buy the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m to bridge a sitting room, feed a ceiling projector or reach a TV mounted across the room from your decoder. It suits DStv, GOtv, StarTimes and Zuku viewers, laptop presenters and home cinema setups. Skip it if you game on a PS5 at 4K 60Hz with the console beside the TV, because the 3m HD104 costs KSh 900 and carries that rating. Runs longer than five metres need the 10m or longer versions instead.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Signal Performance
- 4K at 30Hz support — sharp Ultra HD pictures for films, decoder channels and slide decks across the full five-metre run.
- Full HD 1080p playback — every standard decoder, laptop and projector signal passes through cleanly at this length.
- 48-bit deep colour — smoother shading in skies and skin tones, with less visible banding on a large projected image.
- 3D video support — older 3D Blu-ray players and 3D projectors can send stereoscopic films through the same lead.
- HDMI Ethernet Channel — lets compatible TVs and players share one wired network link through the HDMI cable itself.
- HDCP compliant — HDCP is copy protection, so decoders and streaming boxes show paid channels without a blank-screen error.
Compatibility and Device Support
- Male to male HDMI plugs — full-size connectors fit the standard ports on TVs, projectors, decoders, soundbars and most laptops.
- ARC (Audio Return Channel) — sends TV sound back to a soundbar or receiver, so no separate optical audio cable is needed.
- Dolby and DTS pass-through — surround sound formats travel untouched from a Blu-ray player or decoder to a home theatre amplifier.
- PS5 and Xbox Series X — both connect at 4K 30Hz or 1080p here; pick 3m or shorter for 4K 60Hz gaming.
- Laptops and mini PCs — any machine with a full-size HDMI port can mirror or extend its screen onto a projector.
- Set-top and streaming boxes — satellite decoders and Android TV boxes plug in directly, with no adapter in between.
Build and Shielding
- Tin-plated copper conductors — copper carries the signal, and the tin coating slows the green oxidation that eats into bare copper.
- Triple shielding — aluminium foil, a braid and a ground wire block interference from nearby power cables, routers and phone chargers.
- 24K gold-plated connectors — gold resists rust and tarnish, so the plug keeps firm, clean contact inside the HDMI port.
- PVC jacket — a flexible outer sleeve that bends round furniture corners and can be clipped neatly along walls or trunking.
- Black finish — blends with TV stands, ceiling trunking and dark skirting, so a visible run across the room draws less attention.
Inclusions and Length Planning
- One continuous 5m lead — no coupler joint in the middle to work loose, collect dust or weaken the picture.
- UGREEN retail packaging — the sealed box confirms brand new stock rather than a loose cable pulled from a mixed bin.
- Five metres of reach — covers wall-to-ceiling projector runs in most sitting rooms, with a little slack left for neat routing.
- Sibling lengths on the shelf — 3m for 4K 60Hz gaming, and 10m with a built-in signal amplifier for longer rooms.
- No adapters included — cameras and tablets with micro or mini HDMI ports need a separate adapter, so ask before ordering.
Package Contents
The UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 5m arrives sealed in UGREEN retail packaging, and the box holds the cable only. You get one black, five-metre HDMI male to male lead with 24K gold-plated plugs at both ends. There are no adapters, clips or extras inside, so buyers connecting a camera or tablet with a smaller HDMI port should ask us about a matching adapter. Cable clips and trunking for a ceiling run come separately from any hardware shop.
