HDMI cables for I2S

Are all HDMI cables compatible for I2S streaming on SACD transports? If not, what do I need to look for in an HDMI cable?

That means I would have to purchase the PS Audio DirectStream DAC for 6k unless the PS Audio Stellar Strata or Gain Cell DAC has I2S compatibility. Since I2S uses gates in the active region for speed instead of saturation mode, I can see why LVDS is the logic level that is required. I vaguely remembered how all the different logic devices mathematically worked in my Digital Integrated Electronics class I took thirty-seven years ago.
