  • Compatible with all DisplayPort A-Type connector devices

30-metre DisplayPort 1.4 active optical cable

This 30-metre active optical cable carries DisplayPort 1.4 signals over fibre instead of copper. It suits installers who need long runs for 8K displays in home theatres, conference rooms or digital-signage setups where standard cables fall short.

Bandwidth and resolution limits

The link supports up to 32.4 Gbps, enabling 7680 × 4320 at 60 Hz or 4K at 120 Hz. Signal integrity is maintained across the full 30-metre length, but the cable cannot exceed the DisplayPort 1.4 specification, so higher refresh rates at 8K or features requiring later revisions are not possible.

Installation notes

The cable uses standard DisplayPort A-type connectors at both ends, so it plugs directly into compatible sources and sinks without adapters. Because the optical engine draws power from the DisplayPort port, a source that cannot supply sufficient current may fail to initialise the link; verify the host port meets the DisplayPort power requirement before deploying.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 30 metre length or a shorter version for my 8K display?

The 30 metre active optical cable is built for long runs; if your source and display are closer, a shorter cable will work but this model guarantees the full 32.4G bps bandwidth at the full distance.

What does the 32.4G bps bandwidth deliver on a real 8K monitor?

It carries 7680×4320 at 60Hz with HDR, or 4K at 120Hz, so you get the full 8K@60Hz experience the display supports.

How does the DisplayPort 1.4 interface limit what I can run over this fibre cable?

DisplayPort 1.4 caps the link at 32.4G bps, so 8K@60Hz is the maximum resolution and refresh rate this cable can transmit.
