Lindy's fiber optic hybrid cables are a professional solution for extending HDMI signals over longer distances. Combining the flexibility and high EMI and RFI resistance of fiber optic cable with standard copper cabling, these hybrid cables are ideal for use in critical AV setups, commercial displays or high-performance residential installations.
The internal technology provides uncompressed amplification of the HDMI signal, allowing long distance extension of HDMI 8K content that is simply not possible with passive cables.
As well as static HDR, HDMI hybrid cables also brings further support for dynamic HDR formats such as Dolby Vision and HDR10+. This provides every moment of content, whether scene by scene or even frame by frame, with a much wider color gamut based on the BT.2020 color space, higher peak brightness and deep blacks for optimum contrasts as well as greater depth of color. This is essential for the transmission of VOD content including TV shows and movies, as well as VR and video games, ideal in eSports, retail setups and superior home cinema installations.
The advance of audio control and formats is also brought forward with HDMI. eARC support further simplifies connectivity with compatible sound systems, amplifiers and soundbars, passing lossless audio from the source to the connected output over the cable. eARC also supports high bitrate audio with a sample rate of up to 192 kHz and up to 32 channels. This allows for the use of object based audio formats such as Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, truly surrounding the viewer in immersive sound to enhance and compliment the video content. This is great for multi-dimension residential setups, cinema installations, or inspiring event distribution.
Whether used with residential gaming setups or premium eSports events, these AOC cables also provide extensive features for enhancing the gaming experience, whilst also benefiting fast moving sports and entertainment content. VRR (Variable Refresh rate) reduces and eliminates lag, judder and frame tearing for a much fluid gameplay experience whether it's for quick reactions in an action game or scoring a last minute winner in sports games. ALLM (Auto Low Latency Mode) further helps this by enabling the ideal latency setting for smooth transitions of content. QFT (Quick Frame Transport) also assists with ensuring low latency, by transporting frames at a higher rate which can prove essential with real time VR gameplay. These features also benefit various other industries such as sports bar distribution, medical facilities, experiential displays or news broadcasting.
