As SF Tech says, that is the speed the image changes, which is much slower than the bandwidth in Hz needed to transmit the signal, which is specced at up to 340 MHz. That's like saying you need to update your car which has a top speed of 120 mph so it can drive as fast as a snail instead of only as fast as a worm. However, if you want to get good quality inexpensive HDMI cable I recommend Blue Jeans Cable, which is made from Belden cable. Most HDMI cable, probably including Monster, comes from the Far East somewhere.
