Is this cable rated for in-wall use?

I can't talk about ratings per se, although I believe it is so rated. I can tell you that I am using it in the wall and in the roof crawl space and it is working fine. It is a heavy cable and is well-shielded, in my opinion.

No the cable is adquately sheilded . Unless the building code where you live requires the use of conduit . If you want to not see the cable you can use the hdmi recepticle plate and run the excess cable in the wall.

I think so. I used it for exterior and am sure it will hold up for a long time. In wall is much easier on the life of a cable because it doesn't have any outdoor elements that mess with it. It's also reasonably rigid so i think it will feed through walls nicely.

Cable was run in wall with no problems. Ends are secure and well manufactured. Routing is easy with reasonable carewhile routing cable. if thats what your asking.

Unfortunately, they are not rated for in-wall installation.I contacted Twisted Vein, and they relayed that their cords were not Fire Rated.The outer, braided, cover on the cords protects the cords from damage...(A feature I like, by the way.) ...but this material does not have a CL2 or CL3 rating, for in-wall installation.---

I am not sure of your installation method for in wall use, however, I can speak to the quality of the cable. It is excellent in the quality of this product. I have not had any problems with either video or sound while using it out of my computer to my TV. It is from a Dell laptop to a Panasonic flat screen. I have used it to play video from You Tube mainly of Andre Rieu concerts from all over the world. In this there is a large variety of costumes, musical numbers, and talking from Andre as he conducts the JSO. Not one problem has been had using this cable. Excellent quality.

It would be a very tight fit. Odds are if you're trying to run a cord through the wall you would have to use in-wall rated methods (i.e. set up a new outlet) to be code-compliant which would render this plate irrelevant.

No, this cable is not useful for any application. I am not sure why it is even for sale.

I havne't purchased one of each but it appears that the white braided cable is not CL2 Rated for In-Wall-Installations while the other one is.

I would say that one can purchase as high a quality cable as this one without the braided jacket for a lot less. It seems to me to be overkill to use this in the walls. The key feature of the braided casing is that it lies flat, doesn't bunch up, and looks neat.

I use this cable in a portable charger plugged into the wall and it works fine for me.

It isn't in wall certified but yes you can. Cl2 and 3 rated cables are for in wall. The difference is in the cable's jacket and shielding.

Yes and no. If you put it in conduit, then it's protected enough you should be fine. It is not an outdoor rated cable, however.

This response is directly from Mediabridge support:"In-Wall certified means that the cable has been submitted to "Underwriters Laboratories", a for-profit testing center that submits the cable to a vertical flame test to see how the cable performs while in a fire.We see no value in the test so we do not participate. Our raw materials manufacturer that makes the body of our 50ft HDMI cable has already had the material tested so we keep that rating but all other cables we sell are not submitted by choice."Hope this helps you out!James

Yes it can be used for in-wall installation. Make sure to test the signal quality before installing it and it is recommended to use cable conduits and avoid cable ties in case something happens and there is a need to remove the cable! (damaged ends, nailed cable, AV setup relocation.. etc)

You need to check what your local housing/construction codes say. Generally speaking it's best to put plenum grade cables in walls because they give off less toxic fumes in the event of a fire. I personally wouldn't use this cable for that purpose.
