Stupid question, but is there any physical differences in a cable labeled HDMI 2 compatible and an ordinary HDMI 1 cable? I was led to believe that the port on the device was what actually made the output HDMI 2.0, not the cable. There's so much marketing buzzword nonsense around this subject and I want to get to the bottom of this. I know the difference between a HDMI 2.0 port and 1.0 port, just not what could be different about the cable itself.

The difference is in the hardware. You can use any HDMI cable for 2.0.

I did have to upgrade my HDMI cables at one point two cables that supported 1.4 spec or Arc are Soundbars and certain TVs that support it the arc HDMI port

Normal HDMI cables will work but you'll need HDMI 2.0 spec cables for HDMI 2.0 functions (4k @ 60 hz for example)

You need HDMI 2.0 cables for HDMI 2.0 unlike display port cables
>>
so how do I know if my HDMI cable is 2.0?

There is no such thing as HDMI 2.0 cable. Any existing "High Speed" HDMI cable will do.
