Apple TV 4K only at 1080p and 100Mbps

Hey folks,

I just picked up 2 Apple TV 4K (2021) for my home. I needed 2 more ATV4K and decided to upgrade from the previous ATV4K (giving them to my mom). I simply plugged these in to the existing connections of my previous ATV4K.

I reused all of the existing cables (network, HDMI and power). My previous ATV4K were set to 4K HDR and would link to my switch at 1Gbps.

Both of these new ones won't even give me an option for 4K and they only link at 100Mbps. I updated the firmware to 15.1.1 and still no dice. I've tried RGB High (and Low) and still had no 4K option.

I tried swapping one of the HDMI cables just in case but that didn't fix anything.

Any help or thoughts would be appreciated?
