Condition: New
Note: price and availability are subject to change without prior notice
UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable, 1.5m long, is in stock at Mascom International, priced at KSh 650, brand new and sealed in its UGREEN box. It follows the HDMI 1.4 standard, carrying 1080p Full HD at 60Hz and 4K at 30Hz with 10.2Gbps of bandwidth. The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable uses full copper conductors, 24K gold-plated plugs and triple shielding with an anti-interference design. Collect it from our shop at Old Mutual Building, First Floor Room 4, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD, or order it for pay-on-arrival delivery.
Designed for households, students and small offices, the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable handles the everyday short connection between a box and a screen. The cable that came with a DStv, GOtv, StarTimes or Zuku decoder often gets lost during a house move, chewed by a pet or bent at the plug. Students at Kenyatta University, JKUAT and the University of Nairobi use a 1.5m lead to send a laptop's picture to a hostel TV for films, lecture videos and group revision. The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable also fits a Full HD TV or an older office desktop and monitor.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops sell unbranded cables that fail within weeks, Mascom International stocks UGREEN, a brand that publishes its ratings. We are honest about the gap too: for KSh 50 more, the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 2m is rated HDMI 2.0 and carries 4K at 60Hz, which suits a PS5 or a 4K TV better. Customers across Nairobi tell us the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable is what they buy for a decoder or Full HD set. Walk in to Kimathi Street or send us a WhatsApp message to order.
Common Questions About the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable
How much is the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable 1.5m in Kenya?
The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable 1.5m sells for KSh 650 at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD, brand new and sealed. That price includes a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects and pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties. It sits KSh 50 below the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 2m at KSh 700, and KSh 250 below the UGREEN VG101 VGA Cable at KSh 900. For a decoder or Full HD TV, it is a low-cost, branded replacement for a lost or damaged lead.
Will the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable work with my DStv, GOtv, StarTimes or Zuku decoder?
Yes, the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable connects any Kenyan decoder with an HDMI output to a TV with an HDMI input. It is HDCP compliant, which is the copy-protection handshake decoders use before they show pay-TV channels. Without HDCP support, some decoders show a blank or error screen. Plug one end into the decoder's HDMI port and the other into the TV, then choose that HDMI input on the TV remote. At 1.5m it suits a decoder on a stand directly below the screen.
Should I buy the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable or the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 2m?
Buy the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 2m at KSh 700 if you own a 4K TV, a PS5 or an Xbox Series X, because it is HDMI 2.0 rated for 4K at 60Hz and 18Gbps. The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable at KSh 650 follows HDMI 1.4, so it handles 1080p at 60Hz and 4K only at 30Hz. That makes the HD101 a sound choice for decoders, Full HD TVs and older laptops. For gaming or 4K streaming, the extra KSh 50 for the HD104 is worth paying.
Can a student connect a laptop to a hostel TV with the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable?
Yes, the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable links any laptop with a full-size HDMI port to a hostel TV, so films, lecture recordings and group study slides appear on the bigger screen. Sound travels through the cable too, so the TV speakers play the audio. Press the Windows key and P to choose duplicate or extend display. Laptops with only USB-C or mini HDMI need a separate adapter. At 1.5m, the laptop can sit on a desk or bed beside the TV stand.
Does the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable carry sound as well as picture?
The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable carries digital audio and video on one lead, so your TV or soundbar receives both from the decoder or laptop. It supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio, the lossless surround formats used on Blu-ray discs and many films. Football fans watching a match through a decoder hear stadium sound through the TV or a connected sound system. There is no need for a separate audio cable between the source and the screen.
How does the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable cope with dust, heat and power surges in Kenya?
The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable has triple shielding and gold-plated connectors, which suit dusty rooms and the humid air found in Mombasa and Kisumu homes. Gold resists the corrosion that greens the plugs on cheap cables left behind a TV for months. A cable cannot stop a KPLC power surge, so protect the TV and decoder with a surge-protected extension. After a blackout, the picture returns over the same cable once the decoder restarts. Wipe dust off the plug when you move it.
Will the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable show 4K pictures?
The UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable carries 4K at 30Hz, which is fine for still photos and slow video but not for fast sport or gaming. Its main strength is 1080p Full HD at 60Hz, the resolution most decoders, many Kenyan TVs and older laptops output. A 4K TV fed by a 4K streaming box looks smoother at 60Hz, which needs an HDMI 2.0 cable such as the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 2m. For a Full HD screen, the HD101 delivers every pixel the TV can show.
Who should buy the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable, and who should skip it?
Buy the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable if you are replacing a decoder lead, linking a laptop to a Full HD TV, or setting up a budget hostel or office screen on a tight budget. Skip it if you game on a PS5 or Xbox Series X or stream 4K at 60Hz; the UGREEN HD104 HDMI Cable 2m suits you better. Skip it as well if your projector or monitor has only a VGA port; the UGREEN VG101 VGA Cable fits those.
Technical Specifications
Core Function and Signal
- HDMI 1.4 standard — the version most decoders, Full HD TVs and older laptops were built to use.
- 1080p Full HD at 60Hz — a sharp, smooth picture for TV channels, football matches, films and lecture videos.
- 4K at 30Hz — fine for photos and slow-moving video on a 4K TV, though fast motion looks less fluid.
- 10.2Gbps bandwidth — the data capacity needed to carry Full HD video with multi-channel sound together.
- Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio — lossless surround sound formats from films and discs reach your speakers unchanged.
- HDCP compliant — the copy-protection handshake pay-TV decoders and streaming services need before showing a picture.
Compatibility
- Full-size HDMI male plug at each end — fits standard HDMI ports on decoders, TVs, laptops, monitors and projectors.
- DStv, GOtv, StarTimes and Zuku decoders with HDMI output — a direct replacement for the lead that came in the box.
- Laptops and desktops with a full-size HDMI port connect to TVs, monitors and projectors without extra software.
- Laptops with only USB-C or mini HDMI need a separate adapter before this cable will connect.
- Better suited to Full HD gear than to PS5 or 4K 60Hz setups, which call for an HDMI 2.0 cable.
Build and Materials
- Full copper conductors — copper carries the signal with low loss across the short 1.5m run.
- 24K gold-plated connectors — gold resists corrosion, so the plug keeps good contact in humid or dusty rooms.
- Triple shielding — three protective layers around the wires help block interference from nearby power cables and Wi-Fi routers.
- Anti-interference design — helps keep the picture free of flicker and sparkles when cables are bundled behind a TV.
- 1.5m length — enough to reach from a TV stand or desk to a wall-mounted screen nearby.
- Black finish — blends in behind the TV and along dark furniture without drawing attention.
Inclusions
- One UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable, 1.5m, black, in UGREEN retail packaging.
- No adapters or extras are included, so check your ports before you order.
- Covered by the 6-month Mascom International warranty set out in full below.

- Available for collection in Nairobi CBD or pay-on-arrival delivery to all 47 counties.
Package Contents
The UGREEN retail box contains one UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable, 1.5 metres long, in black. Nothing else is packed with it: no adapters, no cable ties and no wall mounts. If your laptop has only a USB-C or mini HDMI port, buy a suitable adapter alongside it. Decoder owners need nothing more, because every Kenyan pay-TV decoder with an HDMI port takes this full-size plug directly, as does almost every flat-screen TV sold in Kenya.
Warranty
Mascom International covers the UGREEN HD101 HDMI Cable with a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects under normal use, such as a plug or conductor that stops working without physical damage. Bring the cable and your receipt to our Nairobi CBD service desk for assessment.
