Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I bought this cable because I was cable managing my desk and my old HDMI cable was too short, so I got the 10ft to reach while being hidden still. The picture seemed fine, but when I shutdown my computer or put it to sleep the monitor was now staying on with a message saying "no HDMI signal". I used to be an electrician so I got my multi-meter out and checked the ends for continuity, and found out the pins 3, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 18 are open (no connection). These pins are responsible for relaying the message for the monitor turning off when you shutdown your computer, along with other important information I'm sure. This HDMI appears to be manufactured this way as I was able to find other people with the same issue and the exact same pins were open on their cables too. When testing my original cable that worked fine, all the pins tested good for continuity, like they should.
