Active Optical HDMI Cable DELOCK 8K 60 Hz 50 m, HDMI Type A male–male, 48 Gbit/s, metal armouring

Active Optical HDMI Cable DELOCK 8K 60 Hz 50 m is an HDMI Type A male–male cable designed for long-distance transmission of high-resolution video and audio. The cable supports up to 48 Gbit/s bandwidth and 8K Ultra HD resolution at 60 Hz. Constructed as an active optical cable, it uses optical fiber for signal transmission, which reduces signal loss over long runs compared with traditional copper HDMI cables. Gold-plated contacts and metal armouring provide reliable contact and improved mechanical protection for installations in home theaters, studios, conference rooms and professional AV setups.

Advantages

The active optical design enables stable transmission over 50 m with minimal attenuation while maintaining full HDMI feature compatibility at high bandwidths. Metal armouring adds mechanical protection against external damage and increases tensile strength while retaining flexibility for routing and installation. Gold-plated HDMI Type A connectors ensure secure contact and corrosion resistance, and the lightweight, thin optical construction reduces cable bulk compared with equivalent long copper cables.

Suitable for

• Connecting source devices (Blu-ray players, media players, PCs) to distant TVs or projectors
• Fixed AV installations in conference rooms and lecture halls
• Studio and production environments that require high-resolution monitoring
• Home theater setups with long cable runs between AV receiver and display

• Maximum data rate: 48 Gbit/s
• Cable type: Active optical cable (optical fiber core)
• Outer protection: Metal armouring for mechanical protection
• Contacts: Gold-plated
• Flexibility: Bendable design with increased tensile strength

How to use

Connect one HDMI Type A male connector to the HDMI output of the source device and the other HDMI Type A male connector to the display input. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and secured in the HDMI ports. Route the cable through the installation path, avoiding sharp bends below the cable's minimum bend radius and protecting exposed connectors from mechanical stress. No external power is required beyond standard HDMI power provided by source and sink devices. After connection, set the display and source to appropriate resolution and refresh rate (up to 8K @ 60 Hz) in device settings if needed.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid tight folds and kinks in the cable and protect exposed sections of metal armouring from repeated abrasion. When installing through conduits or cable channels, confirm sufficient space for the 50 m length and follow device firmware or display settings to select the desired resolution and HDR or color subsampling options if supported.
