The ACT AOC 8K DisplayPort 2.1 DP40 UHBR10 cable is made of copper and fiber to connect different devices over long distances up to 100 meters without the loss of data. The Active Optical Cable has a bandwidth of 40Gbps 4:4:4 to handle the resolution of 7680x4320 (8K) @ 60Hz. Additionally, the cable supports: HDR, HDCP 2.2, EDID, Multi-channel audio, Dolby True HD and DTS-HD Master Audio.

AOC: copper and glass for longer distances and the best video and audio quality
The AOC (Active Optical Cable) cable is made of copper and fiber for transferring 8K @ 60Hz over long distances up to 100m without data loss. It has a bandwidth of 40Gbps 4:4:4, also called UHBR10 DP 40.

The cable has a Kevlar protected fiber, an aluminium foiled shielding and is suitable for sensitive applications due to low RFI/EMI. The cable is supplied in a box.

No additional power is needed. The cable supports 3.3V over the full length.

Resolution of 8K @ 60Hz
This 8K DisplayPort cable supports a resolution of 7680x4320 @ 60Hz. Furthermore, the cable supports High Dynamic Range (HDR) video for expansive contrast ratio and color accuracy, HDCP 2.2, EDID, Multi-channel audio, Dolby True HD, and DTS-HD Master Audio.

LSZH
The cable has a LSZH (Low Smoke Zero Halogen) cable jacket that reduces the risk of high concentrations of toxic gases in case the cable is damaged due to fire or short circuit.

Additional features
It is important that the cable is connected correctly. The ACT AOC DisplayPort 2.1 cable is marked to ensure easy identification of the source and display connector. The snap-in connector ensures a reliable connection without the risk of accidental disconnection.

User scenarios
Medical applications: High-resolution imaging is critical in radiology for detailed diagnosis. The 8K DisplayPort 2.1 DP40 UHBR10 cable is used to connect imaging equipment to large displays. The low RFI/EMI minimizes interference with sensitive medical devices.

Nautical applications: The vessel's bridge uses high-definition displays for navigation, radar, and other critical systems. Facilitates connections between equipment located in different parts of the vessel without signal loss. The Kevlar protected fiber offers durability and reliability in harsh marine environments.

Data center applications: Data centers require high-resolution displays for monitoring system performance and security. The LSZH jacket ensures safety by reducing toxic gas emissions in case of a fire.

Educational applications in lecture halls and auditoriums: Provides clear and detailed visuals for large audiences. Long Distance Capability: Enables connection from the control room to displays across large spaces.

Corporate applications in meeting rooms and conference centers: Executive meeting rooms and conference centers require high-definition displays for video conferencing, presentations, and collaborative work.

How to use

Connect one DisplayPort straight male connector to the source device and the other to the display device, ensuring the connectors are oriented according to the markings for source and display. Push until the snap-in latch engages to secure the connection. Use the full 40 m length as required, and avoid tight bends or crushing to protect the fiber core and Kevlar reinforcement. No external power supply is needed; normal DisplayPort source power (3.3 V) is supported across the cable.

Recommendations

For reliable 8K@60Hz operation, use the ACT AK4174 in installations with stable DisplayPort 2.1 sources and displays, avoid tight bends and mechanical stress on the cable, and follow connector markings to prevent reversed connections. The LSZH jacket makes it suitable for enclosed public and professional spaces where reduced smoke and halogen emissions are required.
