HDMI Cable Equip HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable M/M 70m

The Equip 11943x series Active Optical Cable (AOC) is a hybrid HDMI cable that uses optical fibre for high-speed video/data transmission and copper conductors for low-frequency control signals. This Equip HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable M/M 70m features HDMI Type A connectors, supports up to 4K@60Hz, 3D, a data rate of 18 Gbit/s and includes Audio Return Channel (ARC). The cable is designed to provide reliable signal extension up to 70 m without additional power or loss of quality.

Advantages

By combining multimode optical fibres with copper wires, the cable delivers high-bandwidth TMDS signals over long distances while preserving control-channel functionality. The active optical design eliminates signal degradation and latency common to long copper HDMI runs, and the single-cable solution requires no external power source. The black, durable construction is suitable for professional and residential installations where long-reach HDMI connectivity is needed.

Suitable for

• Installing HDMI links between distant displays and sources (up to 70 m)
• 4K@60Hz video distribution and home cinema setups with ARC
• Conference rooms, lecture halls and digital signage requiring long cable runs
