4K Ultra HD 600 MHz Extender for HDMI over one Fiber-Optic Cable (EXT-UHD600-1SC)

EXT-UHD600-1SC

The Gefen EXT-UHD600-1SC is a compact and high-performance solution for extending uncompressed, full-bandwidth HDMI 2.0 audio/video with HDR up to 200 meters (660 feet) over a single strand of SC-terminated OM3 or better multi-mode fiber-optic cable. It supports the highest specified bandwidth under the HDMI 2.0 standard at 18.2 Gbps and a 600 MHz TMDS Clock frequency, allowing it to accommodate resolutions up to 4K Cinema-DCI (4096×2160 at 60 Hz, 4:4:4) with High Dynamic Range (HDR). HDCP 2.2 and legacy HDCP 1.4 are both supported, alongside HBR (High Bit Rate) digital audio formats like Dolby Atmos®, Dolby® TrueHD, and DTS:X™. Designed for critical applications, the extender provides full electrical isolation between the Sender and Receiver units, ensuring stringent safety and EMC requirements are met in environments such as medical imaging, military command rooms, and digital signage.

⚠️Comes with both Sender and Receiver.

How It Works

The Gefen EXT-UHD600-1SC system extends HDMI using a Sender and a Receiver unit to transmit the signal over a long distance. To set it up, connect an HDMI source to the Sender unit's Input port and an HDMI display to the Receiver unit's Output port with HDMI cables. The two units are then linked together with a single strand of SC-terminated OM3 or better multi-mode fiber optic cable, which can span up to 200 meters (660 feet). Both units must be connected to power, using either the included 5V DC power supplies or the provided USB-to-DC power cables. The system is entirely plug-and-play, requiring no configuration. The Sender converts the HDMI signal to an optical signal for transmission, and the Receiver converts it back to HDMI for the connected display, with Link indicator LEDs on both units glowing green to confirm an active connection.
