Features

USB-C Fiber Optic Cable Combines Data Transfer and 8K/4K Video
This full-function active optical cable (M/M) securely connects the USB-C, Thunderbolt 3 or Thunderbolt 4 port on your desktop, laptop or notebook computer to a USB-C data or audio/video device, such as a storage device, media server or surveillance camera, located up to 7.5 meters (24.6 feet) away. It is ideal for high-end video conferencing, USB camera placement, 3D printers or high-resolution Pro AV devices, such as touchscreen displays, digital signage or travel displays that can be powered via USB-C PD charging.

Supports USB-C DisplayPort Alternate Mode for Converting Audio/Video Signals
By connecting the USB-C end to a source device that supports USB DisplayPort Alt Mode, you can output 8K/4K video and digital audio to a USB-C monitor, television or projector without installing special software drivers.

This cable also supports uncompressed 4:4:4 chroma subsampling for top-level PC gaming or using your HDTV as a PC monitor.
