As above correctly states, and with more info…


“High Speed” (intended for 1080p, 4K 30 Hz), “Premium High Speed”, and “Ultra High Speed” cables will all work with lower-resolution 1080p connections, yes. Shorter (under 5m) “standard” or “category 1” cables might work.


The higher-spec cables typically cost more, of course.
