iBirdie 4K Fiber Optic HDMI Cable 50 Feet, 16 Metre, Work on Full 4K 60Hz HDR ARC, HDCP 2.2, 1440p 144Hz, 18Gbps, Directional Active Cord Compatible for Apple-TV Ps4 Xbox

I'm frankly amazed that this works as well as it does. Which is PERFECTLY. I haven't had a single issue whatsoever. This is ten times longer than the recommended length for 4K60 HDR video, yet it works perfectly. I regularly use this to game on my living room TV with my PC in my office. It's long enough to run along the baseboards out my office, around the corner through the hallway, behind the couch, and from the couch to the TV stand under a rug. I've also tripped over the cable hard and stepped on the cable multiple times (before I had run the cable along the baseboards out of the way), and even though it's fiber optic, it did not seem to damage the cable in any way. I game in 4K60 HDR, which is a bandwidth of ~20Gbps and requires a "Premium" or "Ultra" rated HDMI cable. And this cable works perfectly. Highly recommended. Note: The HDMI connector on the TV side has a wire coming off the side for USB (to provide a small amount of power to step up the voltage), so it may block an adjacent HDMI port. My solution to this was to plug this cable into the last HDMI port on my TV. Some older TVs may only accept 4K from certain inputs, so it's potentially possible that you would need a short, cheap HDMI extender in order to not block an adjacent HDMI port, depending on your TV. You may potentially also need a short USB extender if an available USB port is far enough away from the HDMI inputs. You may not run into either issue, but if you do, it's an easy and cheap fix.

This is working great for me, even without the powered adapter. However, don’t make my mistake and run it through your cable way without insuring it’s installed according to the instructions! I had never heard of a directional HDMI cable, and didn’t pay attention. It failed to work, until I noticed its directionality. Had I bothered to read the sheet that came with it, I’d have known right away. So don’t make my mistake!

We ran cameras in our studio and were not sure what the final distances would be. Was not sure how HDMI would look at 50 feet but there is no lag and the picture is crystal clear using these fiber cables. We ran 4 cameras with no issues. Just be sure you plug the correct end in for transmit and receive! Great price too.

The cable worked fine for connecting my computer to my TV. The price was attractive.

This is a very good cable so far. I have it going from my projector on the ceiling all the way around the top of my edge of the ceiling all the way to the front of the screen where the soundbar is. I use it strictly for eARC audio from projector to the soundbar and don’t use it for video. I can’t say if it’s good for video. So for now so far it’s been good. I need to get a few more because I plan to actually run the cable through the ceiling/walls (to hide it) and connect more devices. I think I could get a better deal on it had I went shorter length. Overall I do like it. It’s thinner than standard hdmi cables but that’s why I like it. Doesn’t look thick and an eyesore.

This is the third one of these I've purchased. Ive been using 2 others (100') for about a year. I am only running a 1080p signal for a couple of video walls, but so far, they have been perfect. As long as you pay attention to what direction they need to run, they will work for you. The cable is small and flexible enough that as long as the HDMI end will fit, they go through conduit easily.

A Fiber Optic HDMI cable that works!!! Threw a bunch of cables, wireless transmitters & Boosters costing hundreds of dollars, at this tv in my patio, nothing worked for this 50’ cable run. But this one. And at a very fair price. As with most any electronic related item, I question longevity, but for now, I’m pretty happy.

I have my receiver setup across the room so I needed a long HDMI cable to run to my TV. I bought the 50' Fiber Optic one and it works great. 4K picture is clear and no distortion. ARC works well with no issues. One thing to make sure with the fiber optic cables is there is a SOURCE and a DISPLAY end, the ends are not universal. The source end is plugged into my audio receiver and the display end is plugged into my TV. I was worried that ARC wouldn't work because of the whole source/display thing but it all works as it should. I have ARC working from my TV and other sources working from my audio receiver. The cable is fairly thin but that is to be expected. It is very high quality and packaged well. Before viewing this product I didn't know there was such a thing as fiber optic HDMI cables. Once I researched further I found out that is what I needed because I needed 50' and didn't want to skimp on resolution quality. Love the chart they have on here for the cable length and quality. iBirdie were the only ones that actually showed the difference with cable length and quality/resolution. Very happy with this purchase.

Works Awesome, Great signal over long distance.
