  Half of them will print the highest bandwidth regardless of the actual cable’s capabilities so that won’t help.

    The options are to hope the writing is accurate, or to change the connector to break cross-compatibility.

    Buy cables from reputable sources and return anything that doesn’t do what it’s advertised to do, I guess. I like having as few ports as possible! Haha

    I mean, sure, but we’re assuming they’d have to be truthful.

        It is, but I’m just ranting about what I want so I’m allowed to ask for fairy dust and tasty sugar-free candy.

  Sounds like “burdensome regulation” to me.

  Communist.

  They do but probably not in a way that you understand. Instead of the bandwidth which to be honest most people won’t know what that means either, they use

  STANDARD HDMI CABLE STANDARD HDMI CABLE WITH ETHERNEiT HIGH SPEED HDMI CABLE HIGH SPEED HDMI CABLE WITH ETHERNET ULTRA HIGH SPEED HDMI CABLE

  Each one specifies the standard and is almost always printed on the cable. I can’t think of any off the top of my head that wasn’t labeled but I’m sure there are and if you don’t see it printed then throw it out.
