Brea, Calif. – January 23, 2017 – KanexPro, an industry‐leading provider of connectivity solutions to the IT and A/V markets, announces the Active Optical Cable (AOC), an HDMI 2.0 cable with Ethernet designed with premium craftsmanship to deliver UltraHD up to 18 Gbps. The Active Optical Cable accepts the same electrical inputs as traditional copper cables and instead utilizes optical fiber between the connectors to extend HDMI signals with zero loss or latency.
