Python AOC-HP2100 HDMI cable 100 m HDMI Type A Standard Black

The Python AOC-HP2100 HDMI cable 100 m HDMI Type A Standard Black is a 100-metre active optical HDMI cable designed for long-distance transmission of high-definition video and audio. It uses HDMI Type A connectors on both ends with gold-plated contacts and supports the HDMI 2.0b specification, enabling a data transfer rate of up to 18 Gbit/s. The cable carries uncompressed video, multi-channel audio, 3D formats and Audio Return Channel (ARC), while the optical construction reduces signal loss over extended runs compared with traditional copper cables.

Advantages

This 100 m HDMI cable provides reliable long-reach connectivity with minimal signal degradation thanks to its active optical design. Gold-plated HDMI Type A connectors improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. Compliance with HDMI 2.0b ensures support for high-definition resolutions and common audio formats, and the cable’s single-cable solution reduces the need for separate audio wiring or additional extenders in many installations.

Suitable for

• Long-distance AV connections between media sources and displays in conference rooms and lecture halls
• Home theater setups where the source device is located far from the screen
• Digital signage and public display installations requiring stable HDMI transmission over 100 m
• Professional AV installations that require support for 3D content and ARC

How to use

Connect one HDMI Type A end of the cable to the HDMI output of the source device and the other end to the HDMI input of the display or receiver. Ensure connectors are fully inserted and that both connected devices support HDMI 2.0b features you intend to use. Route the cable avoiding tight bends and sharp kinks; the optical core requires gentle handling to maintain performance. Power on the source and display, and select the appropriate HDMI input on the display. If audio return functions are required, enable ARC in the device settings where applicable.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage power lines and protect it from excessive mechanical stress. Verify device compatibility with HDMI 2.0b features for highest-resolution and audio formats, and use appropriate cable management to prevent connector strain during long-term installations.
