Long-run video link for boardroom projectors, church auditorium screens, and ceiling-mounted displays across Nairobi offices and event venues
Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable is now available at Mascom International for KSh 2,800, supplied in the 10-metre length with a full copper 19+1 conductor build, 24K gold-plated plugs, triple shielding, and 10.2Gbps of signal bandwidth. The cable arrives brand new and sealed in UGREEN retail packaging, terminated male to male at both ends, with two ferrite chokes fitted because the run exceeds eight metres. Buy it over the counter at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, open Monday through Saturday from 9:00 AM to 7:00 PM.
Audio-visual technicians, church media teams, school ICT coordinators, hotel banqueting staff, and conference venue managers all hit the same wall: a 1.5-metre cable forces the laptop or decoder to sit directly under the screen. The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable moves the source device 10 metres away, so the projector stays on its ceiling mount while the operator works from a control table at the back of the hall. Gamers with wall-mounted televisions gain the same freedom, running the console from a side cabinet instead of stacking it on the TV bracket. Security installers use the same run to link a recorder in a locked cupboard to a monitor at the reception desk.
At Mascom International, we're seeing steady repeat orders for the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable from AV contractors who stopped buying unbranded 10-metre cables after repeated signal dropouts mid-presentation. Unlike other electronics retailers in Kenya who stock only 1-metre and 3-metre lengths, our store carries the 10-metre HD101 alongside 5-metre and 15-metre options so installers can measure once and buy the exact run. Users consistently report that the doubled ferrite chokes hold a stable picture in halls where fluorescent lighting and generator wiring sit close to the cable path.
Common Questions About the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable
Does this cable really carry 4K across a full 10 metres?
Treat 1080p at 60Hz as the dependable rating for the 10-metre length. HDMI 1.4 carries 10.2Gbps, which covers 3840x2160 at 30Hz. Signal attenuation rises with distance, so at 10 metres UGREEN rates this length for Full HD rather than 4K. For presentations, security monitor feeds, CCTV displays, and church projection, 1080p is the resolution the equipment actually outputs anyway.
Will it work with my PS5, Xbox Series X, or Chromecast?
Yes, every device with a standard full-size HDMI port connects without an adapter, including PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and S, Chromecast, Apple TV, Zuku and DStv decoders, Roku sticks, and laptops with full-size HDMI output. Console owners should note the resolution ceiling: a PS5 will negotiate down to 1080p on this run rather than pushing 4K at 120Hz. For casual play on a wall-mounted television across a living room, that trade is usually acceptable.
Why does a 10-metre HDMI cable cost KSh 2,800 when a 1-metre costs a few hundred shillings?
Length drives both material cost and construction difficulty. This run uses 28AWG conductors, thicker than the 30AWG wire in UGREEN's 1-metre to 5-metre cables, because thinner wire loses too much signal over distance. Two ferrite chokes are moulded onto the jacket, adding parts and assembly steps. Triple shielding wraps the full copper 19+1 core along all 10 metres. You are paying for roughly seven times the conductor material plus interference control that short cables never need.
What are the two black cylinders moulded near each end?
Those are ferrite chokes, and UGREEN fits them on every HD101 length above eight metres. A ferrite choke is a ring of magnetic ceramic that absorbs high-frequency electrical noise travelling along the cable jacket. In a Kenyan office or hall, that noise comes from fluorescent ballasts, generator changeover panels, air conditioning compressors, and nearby power cabling. Without the chokes, long HDMI runs show sparkles, flickering, or intermittent black frames. With them, the picture holds steady.
Can I run this cable through a wall conduit or ceiling void?
Yes, and installers commonly do. The 7.3mm outer diameter passes through standard 20mm and 25mm conduit, and the round PVC jacket tolerates the bends involved in ceiling routing. Pull the cable connector-first using a draw wire and avoid sharp kinks at corners. Note that the moulded connector heads are wider than the jacket, so size the conduit for the plug, not the cable. Leave a service loop at each end for future repositioning.
Does the cable carry sound as well as picture?
It carries both on one line. HDMI 1.4 transmits uncompressed multichannel audio alongside video, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio bitstreams, so a single cable replaces separate RCA or 3.5mm audio runs. Church sound teams feeding a projector and a house mixer still need a separate audio output from the laptop, since HDMI audio terminates at the display. Audio Return Channel is supported, letting a TV send sound back to a soundbar or receiver.
Will it work with older projectors or televisions that only have VGA or DVI?
Not directly. VGA is an analogue standard and carries no digital signal, so it requires an active converter box, which Mascom International stocks separately. DVI is digital and works with a passive HDMI-to-DVI adapter, though DVI carries no audio, so sound needs a separate feed. Most projectors sold in Kenya since roughly 2012 include at least one HDMI input. Bring your equipment model number to our Kimathi Street store and our team confirms compatibility before you buy.
How does the HD101 compare to unbranded 10-metre HDMI cables sold around Nairobi?
The difference sits in the conductor and the shielding. Many cheap long cables use copper-clad aluminium, which costs less but resists signal flow more than pure copper, causing dropouts at distance. The HD101 uses a full copper 19+1 core with triple shielding of ground wire, aluminium foil, and braid. Users report replacing failed unbranded cables within months, while branded 10-metre runs typically outlast the display they were bought for.
Technical Specifications
Signal Standard and Bandwidth
- HDMI version 1.4 specification supports uncompressed video and audio over a single connection, removing separate cable runs for sound
- Total bandwidth reaches 10.2Gbps, enough headroom for Full HD video, multichannel audio, and control data simultaneously
- TMDS signalling handles the data transfer, the same method used across all HDMI generations for backward compatibility with older equipment
- HDCP copy-protection compliant, so Netflix, Showmax, DStv, and Blu-ray sources display without the black screen unprotected cables trigger
- HDMI Ethernet Channel support allows compatible devices to share a network connection over the cable without separate LAN wiring
- Consumer Electronics Control passes remote commands between connected devices, letting one remote power both a decoder and a television
Resolution and Refresh Rate Support
- Rated for 1920x1080 at 60Hz over the full 10-metre run, matching the output of most projectors and monitors
- 3840x2160 at 30Hz sits within the 10.2Gbps bandwidth ceiling, though attenuation across 10 metres makes shorter runs the safer choice
- Supports 1440x900, 1680x1050, and other common office monitor resolutions used across Kenyan business display setups
- 3D video formats including frame-packed and side-by-side pass through for older 3D projectors still in classroom service
- Deep Colour support up to 48-bit reproduces smoother gradients on compatible displays than standard 24-bit output
- Automatic resolution negotiation between source and display means no manual configuration when swapping laptops during a meeting
Conductor Material and Cable Gauge
- Full copper 19+1 construction uses 19 signal conductors plus a drain wire, matching the pin count of a full HDMI connector
- 28AWG conductor gauge on 8-metre and 10-metre lengths, thicker than the 30AWG used in UGREEN's 1-metre to 5-metre cables
- Pure copper conducts better than the copper-clad aluminium found in budget cables, cutting signal loss across long installation runs
- 24K gold-plated connector heads resist oxidation and corrosion in humid coastal conditions from Mombasa to Malindi
- Outer diameter measures 7.3mm, slim enough for standard 20mm conduit while keeping the conductor cross-section needed at distance
- Moulded strain relief at both connector heads reduces cable failure at the plug, the most common HDMI breakage point
Shielding and Interference Control
- Triple shielding combines a ground wire, aluminium foil wrap, and braided outer layer against electromagnetic interference
- Two ferrite chokes fitted as standard on lengths above 8 metres, suppressing high-frequency noise picked up along the jacket
- Interference rejection matters in Kenyan halls where fluorescent ballasts, generators, and power cabling often share the same ceiling void
- Braided shield layer also adds mechanical strength, helping the cable survive repeated coiling between events and venue moves
- Foil wrap blocks radio-frequency noise from nearby Wi-Fi routers, radio microphones, and mobile handsets during live presentations
- Shielded construction reduces the sparkle artifacts and momentary black frames that plague unshielded long cables mid-presentation
Device Compatibility and Ports
- Male-to-male standard Type A connectors fit televisions, monitors, projectors, laptops, desktops, decoders, and gaming consoles without adapters
- Works with PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and S, and Nintendo Switch through the dock
- Compatible with DStv Explora, Zuku decoders, Startimes boxes, Chromecast, Apple TV, Roku, and Amazon Fire sticks
- Connects security recorders to wall-mounted monitors, a common requirement in retail shops, petrol stations, and residential estates
- Mini-HDMI and micro-HDMI devices such as cameras and tablets need a separate adapter, stocked at our Kimathi Street counter
- DVI displays work through a passive adapter, while VGA projectors require an active converter because VGA carries analogue signals
Physical Build and Installation
- Round PVC jacket resists bending fatigue and returns to shape after coiling, unlike flat cables that crease permanently
- Black and yellow colour scheme matches UGREEN's standard cable identity, keeping runs identifiable inside crowded equipment racks
- Length of 10 metres suits ceiling-mounted projectors in classrooms, boardrooms, and church halls with high mounting positions
- Cable weight stays manageable for wall-clipping without heavy anchors, reducing installation time on plasterboard and masonry surfaces
- Operating temperature range covers Kenyan conditions from Nairobi's cool nights to Lodwar's daytime heat without jacket softening
- No external power required at either end, so the cable functions in venues with limited socket availability near the display
