Manufacturing of HDMI Cables

Manufacturing of HDMI Cables

For quality reasons, many customers are now looking for HDMI cables manufactured in the US as opposed to HDMI cables manufactured in China. Our observation, however, is just the contrary. This short article explains why a customer won't find a US-based manufacturer for this important product.

The term HDMI is an acronym for High-Definition Multimedia Interface. An HDMI cable is used to connect high-definition audio and video sources to displays like HDTVs. Often, HDMI cable has terminals at the end for ease of connection.

The manufacturing of HDMI cable is quite complex. Although a handful of U.S. manufacturers have the capability to produce such cables, manufacturing of High-Definition Multimedia Interface cable is rarely done on US soil. In fact, nobody actually claims to manufacture HDMI cable in the US. The main reason for this is the high labor cost involved in manufacturing, which is very time intensive. Therefore, any US manufacturer - attempting to manufacture this - would have faced prohibitive production costs. On the contrary, the labor cost is comparatively cheap in China and that is why manufacturing of this particular type cable is done in China. Moreover, connectors - suitable for the terminating High-Definition Multimedia Interface cable - are also assembled in China for cost reasons. So, Chinese manufacturers are ahead, cost wise, both in the bulk cable and connector market. For a customer, US-manufactured cables probably don't exist, and if they did, the cost would be exorbitant.
