30ft HDMI, any probs?

[AMD6415]

I want to hook my Xbox 360 up to my monitor but they are across the room from each other. My question is will I get poor signal quality with a 30ft HDMI? If there is a signal loss would it be enough to notice?

do you already have the cable? Cause if you don't i'd encourage you to check out prices for a good one as they aren't cheap... and as far as signal loss goes, if you get a good cable, i.e. a monster cable you shouldn't notice it badly.

No signal loss no matter what the cable quality its digital and therefore has checksum within so every 111011010101 is double checked and assured is right before displayng

ok so I found one that is like $30, from what you said that should be ok right?

you might find this useful:
HDMI :: Resources :: FAQ
"... specifies the required performance of a cable but does not specify a maximum cable length."
infact 44, 45 and 48 all seem relevant to your situation

=) go to a cable guy, ask him for a cable


we literally have 100's of these 30-50ft cables laying in our trucks, and (yes they are as good as, if not better than monster.. After all , cable companies dont want customers *****ing about poor signal, like they do EVERY SINGLE DAY ALL DAY LONG lol...)

you'll be fine with your 30$ cable, as long as its the right length,

Go to monoprice.com. I just bought a 35footer so i can play my PC on my 67" tv. It was like 20 bucks plus shipping for a category 2 cable.
