    Bending Xbox Series S HDMI cable for cable management


    As you can see in picture I attached, I had to bend the HDMI cable for cable management. Is this ok? I mean the cable was more bent for obvious reasons in the packaging but I've increased the bend radius a bit to lessen the pressure. Is this going to harm the cable in the long run or have an impact on the performance?

    Thanks,

    Sakib

    Thanks everyone! I can rest assure now! 😅 I actually had them a bit tighter (the shape retained after I took them out of the box) but loosened a them a little to allow a more room between the monitor and console.

    Should be fine,

    I've had cables like that for years with no issue.It's a cable,they're designed to bend after all.

    Hi, Md.! thank you for reaching out.

    My name is AJ, I'm an Independent Advisor for the Xbox Community.

    I understand you have some concerns regarding your HDMI cable.

    As you already mentioned, that position is very similar to how HDMI cables come in a console's original packaging, but its radius is not as tight; due to this and the fact that the cable hasn't been bent but "curled" into that position, it shouldn't experience performance issues in the long run.

    Please let me know if you have any other questions.

    Best regards.

    As mentioned above, it should be fine...the cable is curled rather than bent...to be honest, cables are usually curled tighter than that when you open a new package.

    Cables are surprisingly resilient....you ought to see the angles some of my cables are at inside my desktop PC!!
