The cable was supplied in a plastic bag, without further blister. That was ever good. The cable connectors snap into good and safe. The entire cable makes an impression of quality and worked well with no problems. I use it as a connection of a monitor (Samsung S24D300H) with HDMI input and PC graphics card (NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GT with DVI-D output, single-link, 18 + 1 Pins, max. 1920x1200 pixels at 60 heart). For full marks.
