shiverpeaks BASIC-S Active Optical HDMI Cable 4K 30m Armored Tread-proof Black BS30-04485

For installations where standard HDMI cables fail due to distance, interference, or physical stress, this 30-meter active optical HDMI cable from the BASIC-S series delivers reliable 4K signal transmission in a rugged, armored jacket. Unlike copper-only cables that suffer signal degradation over long runs, this cable uses optical fiber conductors to maintain full 18 Gbps bandwidth and HDMI 2.0 compliance across its entire length, while the tread-proof armor protects against crushing, kinking, and foot traffic.

Highlights

• Active Optical Cable (AOC) technology: converts electrical HDMI signals to light for lossless transmission over 30 meters
• Supports 4K Ultra HD resolution at 60 Hz with HDR10 and HLG for vivid, high-contrast images
• HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant, ensuring compatibility with modern sources and displays
• Armored, tread-proof jacket withstands heavy foot traffic and mechanical stress in commercial or event environments
• Bus-powered design: no external power supply needed; draws power from HDMI source
• Directional cable with clearly marked source and display connectors for error-free installation

In daily use

This cable is ideal for connecting a media player, PC, or game console to a distant display or projector in conference rooms, lecture halls, digital signage, or home theater setups. The optical fiber core is immune to electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for routing alongside power lines or in electrically noisy environments. The robust armored jacket resists cuts and abrasions, while the flexible yet durable construction allows for tight bends without signal loss. The HDMI Type A male connectors are gold-plated for corrosion resistance and secure connections.
