DisplayPort 1.4 

Active Optical Cables

Quick Start Guide

Introduction

DVIGear’s HyperLight

®

 Series is a new generation of advanced Active Optical Cables (AOC) that employ 

cutting edge technology to deliver unprecedented resolution, performance and value.  HyperLight cables 
support DisplayPort 1.4 and provide a wide range of features in a compact, lightweight form-factor.  
They are fully HDCP 1.4 / 2.2 compliant and support signals with data rates up to 32.4 Gbps. (HBR3).  
These features enable HyperLight cables to support very high resolution applications at 4K / 60Hz 
(4:4:4) with cable lengths up to 100 meters and 8K / 30Hz (4:4:4) up to 50 meters.

HyperLight cables are plenum rated (UL CMP-OF), compact, lightweight and highly fl exible.  Constructed 
using a hybrid design of 4x POF (Polyfl uorinated Optical Fiber) and 6x copper wires, they are rugged, 
yet fl exible, with a minimum bend radius of just two millimeters.  To minimize cable diameter, two 
removable DisplayPort docking connectors may be detached, revealing a connector cross-section that 
measures just 10 x 12.4 millimeters.  The docking connectors include a locking pin for added security.  
These features make the cables easy to install even in narrow conduits as well as in plenum spaces.

These cables are designed for use in mission critical applications where image quality and 
dependability are paramount.  The video signals are transmitted over four optical fi bers, which make 
them immune to interference from environmental noise.  The optical transmission path provides a very 
low RFI / EMI profi le, which allows the cables to be installed in sensitive applications with strict security 
requirements.  The cables draw power from the connected DisplayPort source, eliminating the need for 
an external power supply.  HyperLight AOC cables are ideally suited for applications that require ultra-
high resolution DisplayPort signals to be extended over long cable runs with fl awless image quality.
