DVI Active Optical Cables

Quick Start Guide

Introduction

DVIGear’s HyperLight

®

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

cutting edge technology to deliver unprecedented resolution, performance and value.  HyperLight DVI 
cables provide robust features in a rugged yet compact and lightweight form factor.  They are fully 
HDCP 1.4 compliant and support signals with data rates up to 4.95 Gbps.  These features enable 
HyperLight cables to support any Single-Link DVI resolution with cable lengths up to 100 meters.

These cables are plenum-rated (UL CMP-OF), compact, lightweight and highly flexible.  Constructed 
using a hybrid design of 4x POF (Polyfluorinated Optical Fiber) and 6x copper wires, they are rugged, 
yet flexible, with a minimum bend radius of just two millimeters.  To minimize cable diameter, two 
removable DVI docking connectors may be detached, revealing a connector cross section that 
measures just 13.9 x 14.2 millimeters.  The docking connectors include fixation screws for added 
security, as do the removable cable pull covers.  These features make the cables easy to install 
even in narrow conduits, as well as in plenum spaces.

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