Calrad 55-658-s-0.5 Ultra Slim Hdmi Patch Cord 1.5 Feet

Product Description

The CALRAD 55-658-s-0.5 is an ultra slim high speed HDMI patch cord with Ethernet, designed for low-profile cable management in tight spaces. The slim form factor reduces bulk behind displays, racks, and AV equipment while maintaining full high speed HDMI signal integrity. This cord is suited for A/V integrators, systems installers, and electricians routing cables in finished walls, shallow raceways, or densely packed equipment bays where standard-diameter HDMI cables create clearance problems. At 1.5 feet in length, it is intended for short panel-to-device connections.

This patch cord is applicable in residential and light commercial AV installations where source devices, switches, or distribution equipment are mounted in close proximity to displays or input panels. The built-in Ethernet channel supports HDMI networking features where both connected devices are HDMI with Ethernet compatible. Typical use cases include rack-mounted AV systems, behind-display installs, and short interconnects between HDMI distribution hardware and displays.

Key Features

• Ultra slim cable body for tight-space routing and low-profile installations
• High speed HDMI specification with Ethernet channel support
• 1.5-foot length suited for short panel-to-device connections
• Reduces cable bulk in shallow raceways, wall cavities, and equipment bays

Compatibility

Designed as a standard HDMI replacement or extension patch cord for use with any HDMI-equipped source device, display, switch, or distribution component that accepts a full-size HDMI connector.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by A/V integrators or low-voltage technicians. Power down connected displays and source devices before connecting or disconnecting HDMI cables to avoid signal faults. Avoid sharp bends along the cable run, as slim-profile cables have a reduced bend radius tolerance compared to standard HDMI cables. Low-voltage cable installations in walls may require compliance with local codes regarding plenum or riser-rated cabling.
