What this cable delivers

The Tripp Lite P568-20M-FBR is an active fiber optic HDMI 2.0 cable rated for 18 Gbps bandwidth. It carries 4K resolution at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling and supports HDCP 2.2 for protected content. Home-theater owners, digital-signage installers and gamers who need a 65 ft link without signal loss are the target users.

Build and daily use

Optical fiber strands replace copper so the 20 m run stays free of EMI and RF interference. The flexible black jacket routes easily through conduit or behind walls while the HDMI male connectors on both ends plug directly into source and display. Power is drawn from the connected devices so no external adapter is required, and CEC plus EDID pass-through keep device control and display handshake working normally.

Check before ordering

Verify that both source and display have full-size HDMI 2.0 ports able to supply enough bus power for the active circuitry. Confirm the 65 ft length matches the exact path distance; excess slack cannot be coiled tightly without risking fiber bend-radius limits. Ensure the installation route can accommodate the connector heads and that no intermediate repeaters or couplers are needed.

Questions about this item

What bandwidth does the HDMI 2.0 interface on this cable actually deliver?

The cable is rated for 18 Gbps, which is the full HDMI 2.0 bandwidth ceiling, so 4K at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 colour reaches the display without compression.

What physical clearance does the 65 ft fibre run need behind a rack or through conduit?

The optical strand is flexible and carries male HDMI plugs on both ends, so it routes like a standard cable but cannot be cut or field-terminated; plan the path for the fixed 65 ft length and the connector heads.

How is the active fibre cable powered, and what is the common mistake?

It draws power from the HDMI source device itself — no external adapter is required. The frequent error is plugging the ends backwards; the connectors are marked source and display and must match the gear.
