Armored HDMI 2.0 Micro HDMI (Type D) to Micro HDMI (Type D) 40m (130ft) Active Optical Cable, 4K@60Hz, 18Gbps, Industrial Grade
Description
Built for compact imaging and embedded-display systems that must carry full-bandwidth video through physically demanding routes, this 40 m armored HDMI 2.0 active optical cable uses Micro HDMI Type D connectors at both ends. The hybrid optical architecture transports 18Gbps signals for 4K@60Hz while resisting the attenuation and electromagnetic interference that limit long copper runs. A protective armored structure gives the fiber core added defense against crushing, abrasion and installation stress, making the cable a practical choice for industrial cameras, medical carts, inspection equipment and temporary production rigs. The small Type D interface also fits devices and enclosures where a full-size connector would obstruct access. Compared with the Type A-to-D model in this range, this D-to-D version is purpose-built for two compact endpoints rather than a conventional HDMI source.
- 18Gbps HDMI 2.0 transmission supporting 4K@60Hz over 40 m (130 ft)
- Micro HDMI Type D male connectors at both ends for compact cameras and embedded displays
- Armored hybrid-fiber construction helps protect optical cores from crush, abrasion and installation stress
- Optical signal path provides low attenuation and strong immunity to EMI/RFI
- Directional, plug-and-play design suited to industrial vision, medical imaging and mobile AV systems

No — HDMI 2.0 AOCs are limited to 18 Gbps bandwidth and therefore do not support HDMI 2.1 features like 8K @ 60 Hz, 4K @ 120 Hz, VRR, QFT, eARC full functions, etc. If your design requires HDMI 2.1 bandwidth, you would need a HDMI 2.1 Active Optical Cable variant.
These cables typically support key HDMI features such as:rn✔ HDR (High Dynamic Range)rn✔ HDCP 2.2 copy protectionrn✔ CEC, ARC/eARC and audio formats like Dolby and DTS seriesrn✔ Full EDID communication between devicesrnBroad format support means smoother video and audio compatibility across devices.
Often yes, but compatibility varies. Some switches or adapters don’t supply enough power or proper handshake for active optical cables — this can lead to intermittent signal, no signal, or reduced resolution. Testing with your exact hardware setup is recommended before deployment.
This cable is ideal for:rn✔ Long cable runs beyond typical copper HDMI limitsrn✔ Industrial AV installations, signage and control systemsrn✔ Broadcast studios and staging setupsrn✔ Camera-to-monitor connections at eventsrn✔ Environments with high electrical interference or bendsrnIts rugged design and long-distance support make it practical for both professional and demanding home installations.
