How to Shield an HDMI Cable
- 1). Unplug the HDMI cable from any connected devices and place it on a flat surface.
- 2). Wrap the aluminum tape around the circumference of the HDMI cable at the edge of the wire parallel to the connector. Leave the connector element exposed.
- 3). Continue to wrap the tape around the wire section of the HDMI cable so that the entire cable is covered while overlapping the tape as little as possible. Circle around the circumference of the wire at approximately a 30- to 45-degree angle, depending on the width of the aluminum tape.
- 4). Wrap a single layer of aluminum tape around the edge of the wire section so the edge of the tape is parallel and against the connector section.
- 5). Cut the end of the aluminum tape with a pair of scissors. Wrap the excess tape around the wire so it lays flat.
