Go further than ever with active optical AV cables
By using optical fibres for the big-bandwidth video link, these cables are longer and more reliable than their copper-only counterparts. With 48Gbps of bandwidth, you can enjoy 8K video, audio, HDR and other HDMI 2.1 features when connecting a HDMI display to a USB-C video output.
Immune to outside interference means a stronger signal, free from flickers and drop-outs regardless of the electronic environment they're installed in. That makes the perfect for critical applications for office, gaming and even light commercial applications.
Compatible in all the same places regular copper cables go, this product will link your USB-C video source (eg: laptop or smartphone) to a standard HDMI display (eg: monitor, tv, projector, video distribution hub) and provide up to 8K60 resolution alongside multi-channel audio and all other available HDMI 2.1 features like HDR and DSC.
Cable Chick Tip: Always test directional cables before permanent installation to ensure correct operation.
