FIBBR Debuts Design-Friendly HDMI Solution
At CEDIA 2018 in Booth 1206, FIBBR will debut its new Crystal fiber optic active HDMI cable featuring a design-friendly transparent jacket for nearly invisible placement. FIBBR will also showcase its full line of lightweight, extremely flexible HDMI solutions made with the highest-quality glass fibers, available exclusively from YOFC, the world’s largest fiber producer.
Crystal’s unique design combines Data Display Channel (DDC) and Hot Plug Detection (HPD) signals in a single copper wire, using FIBBR’s TransFuture™ technology, two microcontroller units manage the signals, ensuring fail-safe EDID and HDCP2.2 operation. The system includes a firmware update option to easily remedy compatibility issues.
“Integrators now have an efficient solution to reliably pass high bandwidth content for installations where cables can not be concealed,” said Joe Zhang, FIBBR’s Product Manager. “Crystal’s design significantly reduces its appearance, blending with décor, rather then detracting from it.”
Like all HDMI models from FIBBR, Crystal features FIBBR’s proprietary BendRobust™ technology is an industry first, that allows the fiber to be bent 180-degrees for easy management of difficult placements.
Crystal, like all FIBBR models, is designed to meet the needs of today’s data-rich entertainment, reliably carrying uncompressed, native 4K content at 18Gbps up to 165ft (50m) without loss or interference.
Unlike other systems on the market, Crystal and all FIBBR HDMI models feature a true plug-and-play system—FIBBR’s proprietary technology delivers the power direct from AC coupling, eliminating the need for external power on the receiving end.
Additionally, FIBBR Crystal cables are single-directional, so to ensure trouble-free installation, the connectors are labeled Source and Display ends with a SmartLED indicator on the Source connector to quickly and easily confirm proper connection and operation status.
The FIBBR Crystal cables (4K@60Hz 4:4:4) will be available September 2018. Visit FIBBR at CEDIA in Booth 1206 to learn more. For more information visit: www.fibbrtech.com
