Description

The CP-AOCU/CH-66 is an active optical USB-C to HDMI cable engineered to deliver pristine 4K video over long distances. It converts USB-C source signals to HDMI output while preserving EDID and HDCP handshakes for reliable display detection. The cable is plenum rated and designed for installations that require plenum-rated cabling and minimal signal loss.

This cable supports up to 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 color and an 18Gbps data rate, offering full bandwidth for high-resolution content. It carries embedded multi-channel audio including PCM 8-channel and lossless formats such as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. The connectors are 24K gold-plated to ensure low contact resistance and corrosion resistance for stable connections.

Performance-wise the cable maintains signal integrity with polymer optical fiber construction and tinned copper conductors for control lines, minimizing EMI and RFI susceptibility. The thin 4.7mm diameter construction reduces conduit congestion and simplifies routing in tight spaces. The cable supports HDR, EDID transparency, and HDCP 2.2 and 1.4 ensuring content protection and compatibility across displays.

Connectivity is straightforward: a USB-C source end and an HDMI display end provide a direct single-cable link between modern laptops or devices and HDMI displays. The cable preserves standard HDMI signaling and audio formats for compatibility with AV receivers and displays. It is offered in lengths up to 30m (98ft) to accommodate a variety of room layouts and AV installations.

Common applications include digital signage installations, boardroom AV systems, and lecture hall connections where long, reliable HDMI links are required. The plenum-rated jacket makes the cable suitable for in-ceiling and plenum-space deployments that require fire-rated cabling. Its slim profile and reduced EMI susceptibility make it suitable for environments with dense cabling or sensitive equipment.

Installation is simple due to the single-cable design and flexible fiber construction which allows a tight 20mm bending radius during routing. The durable plenum jacket and gold-plated connectors contribute to long-term reliability in professional installations. Overall the CP-AOCU/CH-66 offers a straightforward, high-integrity signal path for USB-C to HDMI applications in regulated building spaces.
