FX-I640 – Active USB 3.2 Gen2x1 Hybrid Cable: High-Speed AV Data Transmission for Professional Installations
The FX-I640 integrates active USB 3.2 Gen2x1 signal processing with a unidirectional hybrid cable structure, combining optical fibre for audiovisual data and copper conductors for power and legacy data channels. This cable supports long-distance, high-throughput connections without external power requirements, making it suitable for workspaces, meeting rooms, and control environments. The cable’s full-metal housing and gold-plated precision contacts contribute to mechanical durability and stable signal interfacing, while inherent EMI resistance supports deployment in electrically noisy AV installations.

• Active 10Gbps Data Transmission: The cable supports USB 3.2 Gen2x1 protocol, delivering data rates up to 10Gbps over extended distances. Integrated active circuitry maintains signal integrity, enabling reliable performance for high-bandwidth AV peripherals in professional meeting spaces or control systems. The FX-I640 is fully backward compatible with USB 2.0 (all lengths) and USB 1.1 (lengths up to 15 m), ensuring

• Gold-Plated Precision Contacts: Both USB-A male connectors feature gold-plated contacts, which provide low contact resistance and stable connectivity. This construction minimises signal loss and contact wear, supporting frequent connection cycles in demanding AV environments.

• Full-Metal Housing Construction: The cable utilises a robust full-metal housing on both connectors, enhancing mechanical protection and electromagnetic shielding. This design is suited for fixed installations or mobile setups where physical durability and signal stability are required.

• Hybrid Fibre-Copper Topology: Optical fibre transmits AV signals, while copper conductors carry power and legacy data. This unidirectional hybrid structure, with a 4.8mm outer diameter, enables low attenuation and reliable operation without the need for external power supplies in integrated AV systems.

• EMI Resistance and Downward Compatibility: The cable’s construction mitigates electromagnetic interference, supporting stable operation in electrically dense environments. Downward compatibility with USB 2.0 ensures seamless integration with legacy devices across diverse AV deployments.

Reliable High-Speed Transmission for AV Integration
By combining active signal management, hybrid fibre-copper architecture, and robust mechanical features, the FX-I640 enables stable high-speed data transmission in professional AV environments. The cable supports long-distance connections, EMI resilience, and broad compatibility, addressing typical challenges encountered in meeting rooms, control spaces, and hybrid workstations.
