Eaton P580F3-30M-8K6 DisplayPort 8K Active Optical Cable
Overview
The Eaton P580F3-30M-8K6 is a 30-meter DisplayPort 1.4 active optical cable (AOC) designed for high-bandwidth, long-distance video transmission in enterprise AV, control rooms, digital signage, and workstation extension environments. It uses fiber-optic transmission to maintain signal integrity across long runs where copper DisplayPort cables would suffer attenuation or EMI interference.
It supports up to 8K resolution at 60 Hz (32.4 Gbps DisplayPort 1.4 bandwidth) with HDR support and 4:2:2 chroma subsampling for high-fidelity imaging. The cable is unidirectional and draws power from the connected device, eliminating the need for an external power source.
Built with a CL3-rated jacket, the cable is suitable for in-wall and structured cabling deployments in commercial AV infrastructure. It is commonly used in video walls, simulation environments, conferencing systems, and mission-critical visualization setups requiring stable long-distance DP connectivity.
This model is intended strictly for DisplayPort source-to-display extension. It is not compatible with HDMI systems or passive DP copper extension use cases, and installation must respect directional labeling.
