HDMI 8K active optical cable is of course a very common audio and video transmission cable. Because the optical fiber is very fragile, under different conditions of use, the optical fiber must be properly processed to ensure that the optical fiber will not be damaged by the outside world during installation, use, and maintenance, so as to ensure the safety of the optical fiber. In order to maximize the physical characteristics of fiber-optic HDMI cables, the research and development of armored HDMI 8K active optical cables has become a reality. The following editor will explain the HDMI 8K active optical cable from multiple dimensions.
What is armored HDMI 8K active optical cable?
Armored HDMI 8K active optical cable, as the name suggests, is a HDMI 8K active optical cable protected by a layer of “armor”. The outer armor of this cable is mainly to prevent the cable from being bitten by animals, moisture erosion or other External damage.
What are the uses of armored HDMI 8K active optical cable?
The appearance of armored HDMI 8K active optical cable is based on a mature application scheme in the fiber optic cable industry. In the past, in order to avoid external force damage, outdoor optical cables were generally laid in solid pipelines. However, the laying method of optical fiber cables is very complicated and requires a lot of manpower and time. So, someone designed a metal sheath called an armored jumper to protect the core of the fiber. The armored jumper has high pressure resistance and tensile strength, which can effectively adapt to harsh outdoor environments and compare with pipelines. At present, armored jumpers have been widely used in the field of optical communication. As a high-end product of the development of the optical communication industry, the HDMI 8K active optical cable naturally inherits the “family gene” of the armored optical cable, effectively solving many possible damage problems in domestic and commercial occasions.
What is the structure design of armored HDMI 8K active optical cable?
1. Outer sheath: The outer sheath of the armored jumper can prevent solvent and abrasion damage, and the outer sheath is generally made of polyethylene and other materials;
2.Armor layer: There is a layer of armor between the shell and the shell, this armor is difficult to cut, chew and burn, and can prevent the cable from stretching when it is laid. As shown in the figure below, the armored HDMI 8K active optical cable consists of 4 fibers + 7 copper wires + armor layer + TPU layer, there is a layer between the inner sheath and the outer sheath, and between the outer layer and the outer layer Aramid yarn layer;
3.Inner layer: is a protective and flame retardant material that can support internal cables and cables. In layman’s terms, in the armored optical cable, the buffer tube is composed of aramid yarn, polyethylene sheath, cable and so on.
What are the types of armored HDMI 8K active optical cable?
Taking SmartAVLink as an example, the armored HDMI 8K active optical cable can be divided into Hybrid Optical Fiber optical copper hybrid armored fiber HDMI 8K cable and Pure Optical Fiber pure fiber armored fiber HDMI version 8K . From the product type, we can divide the armored optical fiber HDMI 8K cable into light armored optical fiber HDMI 8K cable(light armored cable), and heavy armored optical fiber HDMI 8K cable(heavy armored cable). Generally speaking, the cost of light armored wire is lower than that of heavy armored jumper.
In optical fiber communication, any performance damage of optical fiber will bring huge economic and material loss to the optical fiber communication system, so how to protect it effectively is very important in the installation of optical fiber communication system. The armored jumper is wrapped outside the optical fiber to protect the “armor” to achieve the purpose of anti-rat, moisture-proof and tensile resistance, suitable for all kinds of home audio and video, outdoor photography, stage rental, medical system, security monitoring system and other fields.
