Active Optical DisplayPort cable Secomp 14.01.3501 UHBR13.5 54 Gbps, 15 m, DP 1.4

Secomp active optical DisplayPort cable model 14.01.3501 delivers UHBR13.5 signaling with up to 54 Gbps bandwidth across a 15 m optical run. The cable is engineered for long-distance DisplayPort 1.4 connections where maintaining high-resolution video, HDR metadata and multi-channel audio is required. As an active optical solution, it reduces signal attenuation and electromagnetic interference compared to equivalent copper assemblies, enabling reliable links between graphics sources and displays in professional and residential AV setups.

Advantages

This DisplayPort cable provides UHBR13.5 throughput up to 54 Gbps over a 15 m length, preserving high-bandwidth video and audio signals across extended distances. The active optical construction minimizes signal degradation and is less susceptible to EMI, offering consistent performance for displays that demand high refresh rates and deep color formats. Compatibility with DisplayPort 1.4 features allows transmission of high-resolution content and HDR while keeping physical cable bulk and weight lower than heavy copper counterparts.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop workstations or graphics cards to distant monitors or video walls
• AV installations in conference rooms, lecture halls and control rooms requiring long-reach DP links
• Home theater or gaming setups where high-resolution, high-refresh video must be carried over longer cable runs
• Projector connections in auditoriums and event venues

Key specifications

• Signaling: UHBR13.5 supporting up to 54 Gbps aggregate bandwidth
• Standard support: DisplayPort 1.4 feature set
• Length: 15 meters (active optical cable)
• Transmission medium: optical fiber with active transceivers at cable ends
• Video/audio support: high-resolution video, HDR metadata and multi-channel audio over DisplayPort
• Immunity: reduced susceptibility to electromagnetic interference compared to copper cables

How to use

Insert the DisplayPort connector labeled for the source into the graphics output of your computer, workstation or AV player and connect the opposite DisplayPort connector to the monitor, projector or display device. Ensure both devices support DisplayPort link training and that display input settings match the desired resolution and refresh rate. No external power supply is typically required; the cable draws required power from the connected DP ports. When routing the 15 m cable, avoid excessive bending at the connector ends and maintain a gentle bend radius to preserve optical integrity.

Usage recommendations

For optimal results, verify that both source and sink support DisplayPort 1.4 features and UHBR signaling if you intend to use the full bandwidth. When installing in environments with strong mechanical stress or tight conduits, allow extra slack and protect connector ends with strain relief. If link issues occur, check device DP settings, try a shorter known-good cable to validate hardware, and inspect connectors for contamination.
