Ultra Slim HDMI 2.1 Type A to Type A 1m(3.28ft) Active Optical Cable, 8K@60Hz and 4k@120Hz, 48Gbps, support the eARC version, for Professional AV Installations
Description
This 1 m HDMI 2.1 fiber optic cable brings optical isolation and an ultra-slim cable profile to short, densely packed equipment links. Although active optical technology is usually selected for distance, the short format is valuable inside broadcast racks, medical carts and compact AV furniture where low cable weight, a tight routing envelope and immunity to local electromagnetic noise are more important than reach. The 48Gbps Type A-to-A link supports 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz, while the eARC-capable version can return high-bandwidth audio between a compatible display and receiver. Its slender hybrid construction reduces connector strain and improves cable management around closely spaced ports. Compared with the 7.5 m model, this version is optimized for equipment-level patching and eARC workflows rather than crossing a room or ceiling path.
- 48Gbps HDMI feature support for 8K@60Hz and 4K@120Hz in a compact 1 m assembly
- eARC-capable version for high-bandwidth audio return between compatible equipment
- Ultra-slim hybrid-fiber cable reduces rack congestion and connector strain
- Optical video path provides electrical-noise isolation in dense AV and medical equipment
- Purpose-built for short rack, cart and cabinet links rather than long in-wall routing

FAQs
Active Optical HDMI cables convert electrical signals into optical signals, allowing:rnrnMuch longer transmission distancernrnNo electromagnetic interference (EMI/RFI)rnrnThinner and lighter cable structurernrnMore stable high-bandwidth transmissionrnrnThese features make them ideal for professional AV installations and long-distance connections.
Yes. Most HDMI Active Optical Cables are directional and must be connected correctly:rnrnSource → DisplayrnrnThe “Source” connector should be plugged into devices such as PCs, media players, or game consoles, while the “Display” connector connects to TVs, monitors, or projectors.
No. The cable is typically powered directly through the 5V HDMI interface, so no external power adapter is required.
It is widely used in:rnrnProfessional AV installationsrnrnHome theater systemsrnrnDigital signagernrnBroadcast studiosrnrnMedical imaging systemsrnrnConference rooms and control centersrnrnwhere stable long-distance 8K signal transmission is required.
Depending on the model and construction, HDMI 2.1 Active Optical Cables typically support long-distance transmission up to 100m or more while maintaining full 48Gbps performance.
