Product Description
This is a 10m HDMI-A male to male active optical cable (AOC), designed to carry a 4K signal from an NVR (network video recorder) to a monitor over a longer distance than a standard copper HDMI cable can manage reliably.
Why AOC over copper at this length
Passive copper HDMI cables can lose signal quality over long runs. This cable uses a hybrid build — optical fibre plus copper — so it carries 4K@60Hz (3840x2160) at 4:4:4 chroma over the full 10m without needing a booster or repeater.
Key specs
- HDMI 2.0 High Speed certified, 18Gbps bandwidth
- 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 picture, with HDR, ARC and CEC support
- Supports HDCP 2.2 copy protection, plus Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio
- Hybrid OM3 fibre + copper construction, 4.5mm slim outer diameter, Kevlar-reinforced for pulling through conduit or plenum spaces
- Gold-plated connectors with double shielding for EMI/RFI resistance
- No external power supply needed
- Pull-eye connectors rated to withstand 10kg of tension
- Backward compatible with HDMI 1.4 for 1080p sources
Before you buy
The signal only runs one way — install it source-to-display (NVR to monitor), not the other way round. Rated for use between -20°C and 70°C, which suits most rack and wall-mounted installs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this cable carry 4K over the full 10m without dropouts?
Yes — it's built as a hybrid fibre/copper AOC cable specifically to carry 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 reliably at this length, unlike a passive copper cable.
Does it need its own power supply?
No, the cable runs without an external power supply despite being an active optical design.
Can I run this from monitor to NVR instead of NVR to monitor?
No — the signal is unidirectional, so it must be installed source-to-display (NVR to monitor).
Will it work with older 1080p equipment?
Yes, it's backward compatible with HDMI 1.4 for 1080p sources.
