(AOC - Active Optical Cable)
10m USB C Cable with Video support
This USB C cable is an active optical cable (AOC) which supports video transfer via the USB C port (DP Alt Mode), This USB C is an Adaptive Active Optical Cable boasting a maximum data rate of 10Gbps and 60 watts of power at 10 Metre
The Adaptive technology takes action when the cable is being used for video. If you are running video over DP Alt Mode at 8K@30Hz then the adaptive technology in the cable will lower the USB data speed to USB 2.0 to allow for the higher video resolution.
If the resolution is up to 4K@60Hz then the cable is able to simultaneously transfer data at USB 3.1 speed of 10Gbps.
The USB C port will need to support DP Alt Mode for video use.
AOC is short for Active Optical Cable which is the latest in cabling technology. AOC removes the copper conductors and replaces them with fibre optical cores and a small transmitter and receiver in the connectors. Copper cores still remain to carry power along the cable.
The use of fibre optical cores allows the cable to be thinner and lighter
The barriers of cable length is no longer a problem
By using fibre optical cores, EMC interference from power cables and lighting is no longer an issue. The cables also produce much less EMC themselves
No signal loss over long distances
No extenders, boosters or runs of CAT5e needed. These simply connect to your host and device like a standard cable
Our AOC comes in frustration free packaging
