The FX-I380-007 from PureLink is an HDMI 2.1 hybrid fibre cable designed for professional AV installations. It combines fibre optic lines for audio and video signal transmission with copper conductors for power and data transmission in a compact cable with an outer diameter of 4.5 mm. The cable is designed for transmitting high-resolution signals over long distances and is particularly suitable for fixed installations in conference rooms, control centres, digital signage applications, and hybrid work environments where reliable signal integrity and installation safety are required.

Applications
This cable is designed for use in professional environments where high requirements exist for signal quality and connection reliability. It is mounted in racks, podiums, or wall plates where a permanent, mechanically stable connection is required. Application areas include conference rooms, control centres, information displays, and other facilities where high-resolution video transmission over long distances is necessary.

Functions and Equipment in Detail
The FX-I380-007 supports the HDMI 2.1 specification with a bandwidth of 48 Gbps, enabling resolutions up to 8K UltraHD-2 at 60 Hz. This ensures the transmission of uncompressed video signals at high frame rates, which are required for modern AV systems. The use of gold-plated precision contacts ensures a stable electrical connection and minimizes signal loss and contact resistance. This property is particularly important for permanent installations where high mechanical and electrical reliability is required.

Technology Explained Simply
The hybrid construction of the cable combines the advantages of fibre optic and copper. The fibre optic lines handle the transmission of high-frequency AV signals, achieving high bandwidth and low signal attenuation. The integrated copper conductors enable power and data transmission, reducing the need for additional cables. The cable is designed for electromagnetic interference resistance (EMI resistance) to ensure consistent signal fidelity in electrically noisy environments such as device clusters or control rooms.

Compatibility and Accessories
The cable is compatible with devices supporting the HDMI 2.1 specification, including modern source devices and professional displays. Support for resolutions up to 8K/60 Hz and 4K/120 Hz makes it suitable for demanding applications. The use of HDMI Type A connectors ensures standard compatibility with common connection options.

Installation and Mounting
The cable is designed for fixed installations and can be routed in racks, podiums, or wall plates. The full metal housing increases mechanical durability and protects the internal conductors from mechanical stress. The compact design with an outer diameter of 4.5 mm facilitates routing in confined spaces or existing installations.

Operational Advantages
The halogen-free (LSZH) outer jacket reduces smoke development and toxic emissions in case of fire, supporting compliance with building safety standards. This property is particularly relevant for public facilities, meeting rooms, and control environments where fire safety regulations apply. The combination of high bandwidth, low attenuation, and EMI resistance ensures reliable and stable signal transmission even under demanding conditions.
