4K HDMI Over Fiber Optic Extender with custom resolutions

Post by Jakub112 »

Hello,
could you please recommend a 4K HDMI Over Fiber Optic Extender (TX and RX kit) witch supports the custom HDMI resolutions ? For example 2688x1536 @60Hz ?
What parameter should I pay attention to when choosing a product? EDID or just not?

Thanks!

Hey Jakub112,
one of the best and reliable products I personally know for such cases are the transmitter/receiver boxes from Ligthware

Here is the manual, check page 41 for Custom EDID infos

Further you might need to look into this PDF to know how the EDID Editor from Lightware works

I was the first north american to use these about 7 years ago and original units I purchased back then are still going strong! Think of them as a 4K Decimator (before Decimator made a 12G version) and each unit is a transceiver. They're worth their weight in gold! The Pro version uses True1 vs IEC.
