HDMI cable VivoLink PROHDMIOP8K100-DRUM — high-speed HDMI connection, model PROHDMIOP8K100-DRUM

VivoLink PROHDMIOP8K100-DRUM is a high-speed HDMI cable on a 100-meter drum designed for long-distance digital audio and video transmission between compatible devices. The cable uses fiber optic technology to deliver lossless signals over extended runs, reducing signal degradation and providing immunity to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference. The drum has an extra-high outer flange and an integrated connector compartment that secures the HDMI head during reeling, simplifying transport, storage and installation on site.

Advantages

The fiber optic construction enables reliable 8K and 4K video transmission at long distances while maintaining audio fidelity and HDMI 2.1 features. Kevlar reinforcement inside the cable increases tensile strength and protects the fiber during pulls through ceilings, walls or cable trays. The drum design protects the connector and allows smooth, even reeling for efficient handling by installers. Low power consumption and gold-plated connector pins support stable electrical contact and reduced corrosion.

Suitable for

• Long-distance AV links between sources and displays in professional installations
• Home cinema systems requiring 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz signal delivery
• Conference rooms, auditoriums and venues with ceiling or wall cable runs
• Environments with EMI/RFI where optical transmission improves reliability

Key specifications

• Interface: HDMI 2.1 compatible
• Maximum supported resolution: up to 7680 x 4320 @ 60Hz
• Bandwidth: up to 48 Gbps
• Supports HDCP 2.2
• Supports ARC and HDMI Ethernet Channel
• 3D signal support
• Power consumption: approximately 0.7 W
• Connector plating: gold-plated pins
• Cable reinforcement: internal Kevlar fibers
• Tensile strength (pull resistance): 20 kg
• Length: 100 meters on a protective drum with integrated connector compartment

How to use

Mount or place the drum near the run path and unspool the required cable length while keeping the connector secured in the drum compartment until final connection. Insert the HDMI connector into the source and display ports firmly until seated. Ensure both devices support the target resolution and HDMI features (for example 8K@60Hz) and enable any required settings such as ARC or Ethernet on the connected equipment. Avoid sharp bends and excessive compression of the cable around corners; use appropriate grommets or strain relief where the cable passes through walls or panels.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance, check that connected devices support HDMI 2.1 features and configure display settings to match the desired resolution and refresh rate. Use gentle, steady pulls when routing the cable and secure the cable with cable ties or clamps at transition points to avoid sudden strain on the connectors. Keep the connector stored in the drum compartment while transporting or reeling to protect the head and prevent rotation. In installations exposed to EMI/RFI, the optical transmission will provide improved signal integrity compared with traditional copper HDMI cabling.
