Black Box AOC-HL-H2-30M-R2 HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable 30M
Overview
The Black Box AOC-HL-H2-30M-R2 is a 30-meter active optical cable designed to transmit uncompressed HDMI 2.0 signals over long distances without signal degradation. This cable is crucial for applications requiring high-bandwidth video distribution, such as digital signage, command centers, and high-definition AV installations where maintaining signal integrity over 30 meters is paramount. It bypasses the signal loss and interference common with passive copper cables at this length, ensuring a clean 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 video stream.
Compatibility
This AOC cable is engineered for HDMI 2.0 sources and displays. It is compatible with any device supporting the HDMI 2.0 standard, including 4K Ultra HD displays, projectors, AV receivers, Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and professional video matrices. For optimal performance, ensure both the source and display devices support 4K resolution at 60Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling. It is also backward compatible with earlier HDMI versions, though it will operate at the highest common standard supported by all connected devices.
Installation Notes
Active optical cables require careful handling. The AOC-HL-H2-30M-R2 features distinct source (TX) and display (RX) ends, clearly marked on the connectors. Ensure the correct end is connected to the source device and the other to the display or sink device. Avoid excessive bending or kinking, as the fiber optic core is delicate. The minimum bend radius is 20mm. The cable draws power from the HDMI port of the connected source device; ensure the source device's HDMI port can supply sufficient power (typically 250mA).
