StarTech 8K-A-30M-HDMI-CABLE 30m Hybrid AOC HDMI 2.1 Cable
Overview
The StarTech 8K-A-30M-HDMI-CABLE is a 30-meter (98.4 ft) active hybrid optical HDMI cable designed for long-distance transmission of high-resolution video signals. Its construction supports the full 48Gbps bandwidth of the HDMI 2.1 standard, enabling uncompressed 8K 30Hz or 4K 144Hz video, and even higher resolutions up to 10K 60Hz when using Display Stream Compression (DSC). This cable is ideal for connecting high-end displays, projectors, or video walls in commercial installations where signal integrity over extended runs is critical, such as digital signage, conference rooms, or control centers. The CMP rating ensures it meets safety standards for installation in plenum spaces above drop ceilings.
Compatibility
This cable is compliant with the HDMI 2.1 standard, ensuring compatibility with devices supporting this specification. It supports uncompressed resolutions up to 8K 30Hz and 4K 144Hz, and compressed resolutions up to 10K 60Hz and 8K 144Hz. It also supports 32-channel audio over HDMI. The active optical nature means it requires bus power from the connected HDMI source or display, eliminating the need for external power adapters. It is designed for point-to-point connections between HDMI 2.1 sources (e.g., workstations, media players, gaming consoles) and HDMI 2.1 displays or projectors.
Installation Notes
The cable features straight, gold-plated HDMI connectors for reliable signal transfer. Its 4.6mm (0.2 in) outer diameter and PVC jacket offer flexibility for routing, while the aluminum-polyester foil shielding minimizes electromagnetic interference. The operating temperature range is 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F), and storage temperature is -10°C to 70°C (14°F to 158°F). The cable is bus-powered, drawing power from the HDMI port, so ensure the connected devices can supply sufficient power. Avoid sharp bends or kinks to maintain signal integrity.
