Amazon Basics HDMI Fiber Optic Cable 100ft 4K@60Hz

Amazon Basics 100 ft HDMI fiber optic cable delivers one-way 4K@60Hz video and high-fidelity audio across long distances with a slim, flexible 4.8mm jacket.

Built to span rooms, basements, and home theaters without signal degradation, this 30AWG fiber optic HDMI cable meets HDMI 2.0 performance for 2160p at 60Hz and supports 18Gbps bandwidth, 48-bit color depth, ARC, Ethernet-ready functionality, and 3D. The cable is gold-plated and housed in zinc alloy connectors for corrosion resistance and reliable mating, while its ultra-thin, flexible profile makes routing behind walls, under carpets, or around furniture easier than bulky copper HDMI cords.

How does this cable keep 4K video stable over 100 feet?

The cable uses fiber optic transmission to avoid the attenuation and electromagnetic interference common in long copper runs, preserving high-bandwidth signals across long distances. It’s designed as a one-way link from source to display, ensuring minimal loss for HDR-capable or high-frame-rate video within HDMI 2.0 limits.

• 30AWG fiber core for low-loss long-distance transmission
• Supports HDMI 2.0 specs: 2160p@60Hz and 18Gbps bandwidth
• Gold-plated connectors and zinc alloy housing for durable contacts
• One-way transmission—connect source to display in the proper direction

Will this work with my gaming console, streaming player, or AVR?

Yes — it’s compatible with a wide variety of HDMI devices like PS4/PS3, Xbox One/360, Blu-ray players, Fire TV, Apple TV, computers, TVs, monitors, and A/V receivers as long as you use it as a one-way fiber link from source to display. Backward compatibility with earlier HDMI versions means older equipment will still display content, though bandwidth-limited features depend on each device.

• Works with gaming consoles, streaming boxes, Blu-ray players, and PCs
• Connects to TVs, projectors, monitors, and A/V receivers
• Backward compatible with previous HDMI standards
• Not bidirectional — ensure correct source-to-display orientation

How easy is routing and installation with the slim 4.8mm cable?

The slim diameter and flexible jacket make it far easier to run through conduits, behind wall plates, around corners, and under baseboards compared with thicker copper HDMI cables. The connectors remain robust with zinc alloy shells, and the slim cable reduces visual clutter and stress on HDMI ports during gentle bends.

• Ultra thin 4.8mm OD eases passage through tight spaces
• Flexible design for neat routing behind furniture and walls
• Zinc alloy housing protects the connector while keeping profile small
• Gold-plated contacts resist corrosion for stable signal transfer

Who is this for: This cable suits homeowners, installers, and AV hobbyists who need reliable, long-reach HDMI connections for 4K displays, projectors, or distributed AV systems where running long copper cables would degrade quality. Choose it when you require a tidy, flexible route for HDMI over distances up to 100 feet and need HDMI 2.0 features like 4K@60Hz, ARC, and Ethernet readiness without complex signal boosters.
