Product Information

Full details

The Lindy Fibre Optic HDMI 4K60 Dongle Extender is a high-performance solution designed for professional installers and home cinema enthusiasts who need to transmit 4K60 UHD video over distances up to 300 meters. By utilizing a single simplex LC OM3 or OM4 fibre optic cable, this system ensures visually lossless quality and complete immunity to electromagnetic interference, making it perfect for challenging industrial or medical environments. One caveat to keep in mind is that the receiver requires an external 5V USB power source, which must be planned for during installation.

Can I use standard copper HDMI cables to extend the range?

Troubleshooting

No image on the display

Check that the fibre optic cable is firmly seated and that the receiver is correctly powered via the USB cable.

Image flickering or intermittent signal

Verify that you are using an OM3 or OM4 grade fibre cable and ensure the cable length does not exceed 300 meters.

Poor audio quality

Ensure your source device is set to bitstream or the appropriate lossless audio format output.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up the Lindy Extender is straightforward:

  1. Placement: Connect the transmitter module directly to your HDMI source device using the included short extension cable.
  2. Cabling: Connect an LC OM3 or OM4 simplex fibre optic cable from the transmitter to the receiver.
  3. Display Connection: Connect the receiver module to your display device.
  4. Powering: Ensure the receiver is connected to a 5V USB power source using the provided Micro-B USB cable.

Compatibility Note: Always use OM3 or OM4 fibre cabling as lower-grade cables may not support the required bandwidth for 4K60 signals. Care: Keep the fibre optic connectors clean and free of dust. Use protective caps when the modules are not in use to maintain signal integrity. Avoid bending the fibre optic cable at sharp angles, as this can break the glass core.
