Passive HDMI 2.1 Type A to Type A with Ethernet cable

Detailed test template
Each of our test templates is designed in multiple phases. For an item to be recommended, each test in each phase must pass. If an item fails a test in a phase, the tests in the next phases are not performed and the item is discarded. Each phase is organized by complexity and time spend on the tests. For example, phase 1 is considered a screening phase. Phase 1 is fairly fast and helps us discard item that do not pass screening. If an item fails at least one test in phase 1 we never proceed to the next tests and discard the item.
