DisplayPort active optical cable Secomp 30 m UHBR13.5 DP80 54 Gbps

Secomp 30 m UHBR13.5 DP80 active optical DisplayPort cable delivers long-distance digital video and audio transmission with support for UHBR13.5 bandwidth and up to 54 Gbps aggregate data rate. The cable is designed to connect computers, monitors and AV equipment across extended runs while minimising signal degradation. Its active optical construction converts electrical signals to optical for the long section of the run, preserving signal integrity and enabling high-resolution, high-refresh-rate output for professional and consumer displays.

Advantages

The active optical design maintains high-bandwidth performance over 30 metres, reducing attenuation and electromagnetic interference compared with copper-only cables. Support for UHBR13.5 and a 54 Gbps throughput enables transmission of high-resolution video, multi-channel audio and complex multi-monitor configurations. The cable is compact and flexible for routing in AV installations and provides plug-and-play connectivity with DisplayPort-equipped devices without requiring additional power sources or signal extenders in typical setups.

Suitable for

• Connecting desktop computers to distant monitors for high-resolution single-screen or multi-monitor setups
• Professional AV installations in conference rooms, control rooms and digital signage
• Workstations requiring stable transmission for CAD, video editing and colour-critical workflows
• Home theatre or media centres where long cable runs are necessary between source and display

Key specifications

• Length: 30 metres
• Interface: DisplayPort (active optical)
• Bandwidth: UHBR13.5
• Maximum aggregate data rate: up to 54 Gbps
• Signal type: digital video and audio over optical transmission
• Use case: long-distance high-bandwidth display connections

How to use

Connect the DisplayPort source (computer, graphics card or media player) to the cable’s source connector and plug the cable’s display connector into the monitor or AV receiver. Most devices recognise the active optical cable automatically; no additional configuration is required beyond setting the display resolution and refresh rate in the host device’s graphics settings. Route the cable along the planned run, avoiding sharp bends and tight pinch points to preserve the optical fibre integrity. If using multiple monitors or adapters, verify that all connected devices support the desired resolution and refresh rate at UHBR13.5 bandwidth.

Usage recommendations

For reliable performance maintain gentle bend radii, secure the cable to prevent strain on the connectors, and keep it away from sources of strong electromagnetic interference despite the optical core. When running through conduits or ceilings, confirm space and bend-radius requirements; test the connection at the intended resolution and refresh rate before final installation.
