Universal Video Fiber Optic Cables
Overview
Celerity 4K/8K Universal Fiber Optic Cables
Protect your equipment from damaging surges and enjoy freedom from EMI interference with full 8K/60 4:4:4 bandwidth regardless of length. The same plenum rated cable can be used for HDMI, DVI-D or DisplayPort.
A complete product consists of a transmitter, fiber cable and receiver. The bandwidth of the transmitter and receiver must be matched. The following are the compatible combinations of transmitters and receivers:
- DP Tx / DP Rx
- HDMI Tx / HDMI Rx
- HDMI Tx / DVI Rx
- DVI Tx / DVI Rx
- DVI Tx / HDMI Rx
Universal Fiber Optic Cables:
Passive and bi-directional with an optical connector at each end. Stock lengths are listed below. Other custom lengths are available on request. All cables are rated for up to 8K and 48 GB.

Features
Two Steps, No Tools: Celerity UFO is installed with a simple two-step process "Pre-Wire and Connect". Celerity’s innovation with fiber optics means that fiber terminations, testing and tools are no longer necessary. This ensures reliability and efficient project deployment.
Bi-Directional Cable: The Celerity UFO Cable may be installed from any location between a source and display without the burden of ensuring the cable is in the correct direction. Celerity UFO is designed that each end of the UFO fiber cable acts as a precision optical pathway. Once the Celerity UFO Cable has been installed the UFO Cable is ready for source and display connections. Celerity UFO Cable has received the following certification:
- UL certified as Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Plenum OFNP
UFO Protective Caps: Celerity UFO cables and connectors are terminated with a precision optical lens that must be kept free from dust and debris. Each of these optical lenses are protected by a rubber cap that remains in place until the UFO cables are joined. The UFO Coupler then provides protection for the life of the cable connection.
UFO Couplers: Each Celerity UFO cables include a pair of locking couplers that have been designed to ensure correct optical alignment between the UFO cable and the UFO TX and RX connectors.
5V Power: HDMI source components (TX) supply 5V power. Celerity UFO takes advantage of this feature to draw power for the source UFO TX connector. A blue LED on the HDMI connector confirms power. In rare instances, a source component may not provide this signal. For this condition, Celerity provides a hard- wired USB cable to draw power externally when necessary.
Plenum Rated and Medical Grade: Celerity Fiber Optic Cable is plenum rated and UL certified as Optical Fiber Non-Conductive Plenum (OFNP); and the connectors are certified IEC 60601-1 (and others) for medical use.
HDMI 2.1, HDCP 2.3, and HDR: Celerity Fiber Optic HDMI supports HDMI 2.1, HDCP 2.3 and HDR.
HDMI Data Support: Celerity Fiber Optic HDMI supports Display Data Channel (DDC), High Bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) and Extended Display Information Data (EDID). Hot Plug is also supported.
