Exactly. Nowadays it's easy to filter high speed ports, and in the case of shielded cable this is even more easy. One aspect that can be a problem is cable length. USB and HDMI are limited in length, and in large rooms that can be a problem, needing repeaters, that can form a new problem themselves.
About the cable radiating: If the signal arrives correctly at the end in an approved cable, the cable is not radiating. I mean it's not the mere fact that data is running that make the cable radiate. That is why these cable are approved and characterized. A radiating signal cable (if due to the signal) has problems with signal transfer also, especially at this data rates. In the case of HDMI the external screen is not needed to protect the signal as the data internally is grouped and internally screened (3 or 5 groups). I suspect this is just equipment originated CM current, that cannot be cured with a better cable; but needs a better equipment CM design. (Or a bunch of heavy ferrites). Regards, Ing.

If I am qualifying a device that connects through a cable to this TV, but not the TV itself, why would it physically have to be part of the set-up in the test chamber? Why could it not simply be support equipment in an adjacent chamber, providing the proper interface at the end of the cable?
