DVIGear Extends DisplayPort Signal to 100 Meters

DVIGear is revealing a new technology to extend the range of DisplayPort cable to 100 meters at this week’s InfoComm 2016 conference taking place in Las Vegas.

The DisplayPort v1.2 Active Optical Cables allow users to extend the range of 4K/60 Hz signals (in 4:4:4) up to 100 meters using the DisplayPort’s own power. The cables are expected to ship in August.
