Lightware HDMI-OPTN-RX100A SDVoE-based Point-to-multipoint HDMI 2.0...
Product Overview
The Lightware HDMI-OPTN-RX100A is an SDVoE-based HDMI 2.0 fiber receiver designed for point-to-multipoint video distribution over single-mode or multimode fiber optic cable. It receives full 4K UHD HDMI 2.0 signals transmitted from a compatible fiber transmitter at distances of up to 10 km using a single-mode SFP+ module. Alongside video, the unit supports analog audio output, KVM functionality, and full USB 2.0 transparency, making it a complete endpoint for demanding AV-over-fiber installations.
Product Description
Fiber optic transport provides the immunity to EMI, ground loops, and distance constraints that copper-based systems cannot match. The HDMI-OPTN-RX100A uses an SFP+ cage that accepts both single-mode (up to 10 km) and multimode SFP+ modules, giving the integrator flexibility to match the fiber infrastructure already present in the facility.
The receiver supports transparent USB 2.0 transmission, enabling cameras, microphones, touchscreens, and other USB peripherals at the display end to communicate with the source computer over the fiber link. A composite USB mode covers HID devices for keyboard and mouse without additional KVM hardware. Analog audio output and local HDMI output provide complete signal delivery at the display location. The unit is HDCP 2.3 compliant and supports HDR and Low Latency Dolby Vision.
Key Features
- SFP+ fiber interface — accepts single-mode (up to 10 km) or multimode SFP+ modules; module not included
- SDVoE point-to-multipoint — one transmitter can feed multiple receivers via network switching
- 4K UHD 60Hz HDMI 2.0 output — RGB 4:4:4 at 18 Gbps, HDCP 2.3 compliant
- USB 2.0 transparent mode — cameras, microphones, touchscreens, mass storage over fiber
- USB 2.0 composite mode — HID keyboard and mouse without driver installation
- Analog audio output — de-embeds audio from HDMI for local speaker connection
- HDR and Low Latency Dolby Vision — full HDR format support
- Ground loop isolation — fiber transport eliminates electrical ground path between endpoints
Typical Applications
- Campus and multi-building AV distribution where fiber is the existing infrastructure
- Broadcast facilities and production environments requiring EMI-immune 4K signal transport
- Government and defence installations with strict electrical isolation requirements
- Long-distance display links in transportation hubs, stadiums, and convention centers
- Medical environments where galvanic isolation between AV endpoints is required

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the SFP+ module included with the HDMI-OPTN-RX100A?
- No. The SFP+ module is purchased separately. Single-mode modules enable distances up to 10 km; multimode modules cover shorter runs. Contact Creation Networks for compatible SFP+ module recommendations.
- Can this receiver work as part of a point-to-multipoint distribution system?
- Yes. Using the SDVoE protocol over a network switch, multiple RX100A receivers can receive from the same transmitter simultaneously, supporting large-scale distribution.
- What USB device classes are supported in transparent mode?
- Cameras, microphones, touchscreens, pen drives, and other USB 2.0 device classes. HID devices operate in composite mode. Check the Lightware datasheet for the full supported device list.
- Does fiber transport eliminate ground loop issues?
- Yes. Fiber is inherently electrically isolated. There is no electrical connection between the source and display ends, which eliminates ground loops and provides protection in installations with different electrical ground potentials.
- Is the unit compatible with existing multimode fiber infrastructure?
- Yes. Select the appropriate multimode SFP+ module for your fiber type (OM1, OM2, OM3, OM4). Distance capability varies by fiber grade and module specification.
- What is the maximum supported resolution?
- 4K UHD at 60Hz with 4:4:4 chroma at full 18 Gbps HDMI 2.0 bandwidth, fully HDCP 2.3 compliant.
