How do cables, like HDMI, get faster when there’s the same number of pins between versions?
In: Technology
They are not always just cables, HDMI cables contain chips, particularly those designed for specific advanced functionalities or to meet the specifications of newer HDMI versions. The presence of chips in HDMI cables is especially common in active HDMI cables.
The speeds and other functions are due to the chip, not the cable/pins themselves.
