HDMI cable requirements for 4K HDR IPTV:

Cable Type Bandwidth 4K@30fps HDR 4K@60fps HDR10+
HDMI 1.4 High Speed 10.2 Gbps Limited No
HDMI 2.0 High Speed 18 Gbps Yes Yes (HDR10)
HDMI 2.1 Ultra High Speed 48 Gbps Yes Yes (all HDR)

An HDMI 2.0 certified cable is sufficient for most IPTV setups running 4K HDR10 at 60fps. Only upgrade to HDMI 2.1 if both your box and TV support it for HDR10+ or uncompressed 4K@120fps. Avoid cheap uncertified cables — they cause signal dropouts and macroblocking.
