What Is the UHD-FODP10-K?
The OREI UHD-FODP10-K is a 4K@60Hz DisplayPort over fiber optic extender kit that extends one DisplayPort source to one DisplayPort display over fiber optic cable. It supports transmission up to 10km using single-mode fiber optic cable and up to 300m / 1000ft using multi-mode OM4 fiber cable.
The kit includes one Transmitter, one Receiver, two power adapters, and a user manual. The DisplayPort source connects to DP IN on the Transmitter, the remote DisplayPort monitor connects to DP OUT on the Receiver, and fiber optic cable connects the SFP+ OUT port on the Transmitter to the SFP+ IN port on the Receiver.
The UHD-FODP10-K supports DisplayPort 1.4a and HDCP 2.3 / 2.2 / 1.x, with a video bandwidth of 32.4Gbps. It supports HBR3, HBR2, HBR, and RBR, video resolutions up to 4K@60Hz and 2K@60Hz, any standard VESA resolution, HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, HLG, LPCM, Dolby Digital, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, DTS-HD Master Audio, and DTS:X.
The UHD-FODP10-K is useful for long-distance DisplayPort extension, control rooms, commercial AV, digital signage, conference rooms, classrooms, medical spaces, industrial environments, security monitoring, and installations where reliable 4K@60Hz DisplayPort transmission over fiber optic cable is required.
IMPORTANT — UHD-FODP10-K Uses Fiber Optic Cable
The UHD-FODP10-K extends DisplayPort over fiber optic cable.
| Connection | Function |
| DisplayPort cable | Source to Transmitter and Receiver to display |
| Fiber optic cable | Main DisplayPort signal extension |
| SFP+ port | Fiber optic connection between Transmitter and Receiver |
This model does not use CAT cable for the DisplayPort extension path.
IMPORTANT — Supports up to 10km Over Single-Mode Fiber
The UHD-FODP10-K supports long-distance DisplayPort transmission over fiber.
| Fiber Type | Maximum Distance |
| Single-mode fiber optic cable | Up to 10km |
| Multi-mode OM4 fiber optic cable | Up to 300m / 1000ft |
For the longest distance, use single-mode fiber optic cable.
Multi-mode OM4 fiber can be used, but the distance is reduced to 300m / 1000ft.
IMPORTANT — Supports 4K@60Hz
The UHD-FODP10-K supports video resolutions up to 4K@60Hz.
| Feature | Support |
| 4K@60Hz | Supported |
| 2K@60Hz | Supported |
| Any standard VESA resolution | Supported |
| DisplayPort 1.4a | Supported |
| HDCP 2.3 / 2.2 / 1.x | Supported |
| Video bandwidth | 32.4Gbps |
| HBR3 / HBR2 / HBR / RBR | Supported |
| HDR10 | Supported |
| HDR10+ | Supported |
| Dolby Vision | Supported |
| HLG | Supported |
To get 4K@60Hz, the DisplayPort source, display, DisplayPort cables, fiber cable, SFP+ modules, and source output settings must all support the required signal.
IMPORTANT — Single DisplayPort Source to Single DisplayPort Display
The UHD-FODP10-K extends one DisplayPort source to one DisplayPort display.
| Function | Support |
| 1 DisplayPort input | Supported |
| 1 DisplayPort output | Supported |
| Point-to-point DisplayPort extension | Supported |
| One source to one display | Supported |
| Multiple displays | Not supported by itself |
| Matrix switching | Not supported |
| Extended desktop creation by itself | Not supported |
This product is a point-to-point DisplayPort fiber extender. It is not a splitter, switch, or matrix.
IMPORTANT — Both Units Need Power
The UHD-FODP10-K includes two power adapters.
| Unit | Power Requirement |
| Transmitter | DC 5V/1A |
| Receiver | DC 5V/1A |
Both the Transmitter and Receiver must be powered for the extender to work.
If either unit does not power on, check the power adapter, outlet, DC 5V connection, and power indicator.
IMPORTANT — EDID Transmission Is Supported
The UHD-FODP10-K supports EDID transmission from the Receiver to the Transmitter.
EDID helps the DisplayPort source detect the connected display and output a compatible resolution and format.
Use EDID transmission when:
- The display does not show video
- The source outputs an unsupported resolution
- The wrong resolution appears
- The monitor is not detected correctly
- 4K@60Hz does not display correctly
IMPORTANT — No DisplayPort Loop Out Listed
The UHD-FODP10-K manual lists DP IN on the Transmitter and DP OUT on the Receiver.
It does not list DisplayPort loop output on the Transmitter.
| Unit | DisplayPort |
| Transmitter | DP IN |
| Receiver | DP OUT |
If a local display is needed near the source, use a DisplayPort splitter before the Transmitter or choose a different solution that supports local loop output.
IMPORTANT — Audio Pass-Through Is Supported
The UHD-FODP10-K supports DisplayPort audio pass-through.
Supported audio formats include:
| Supported Audio |
| LPCM |
| LPCM 7.1CH |
| Dolby Digital |
| Dolby Digital Plus |
| Dolby Digital EX |
| Dolby 5.1 |
| Dolby TrueHD |
| Dolby Atmos |
| DTS |
| DTS-EX |
| DTS-96/24 |
| DTS High Res |
| DTS-HD Master Audio |
| DTS:X |
The connected DisplayPort source, monitor, display, AVR, soundbar, or audio system must also support the selected audio format.

- Connect fiber optic cable from SFP+ OUT on the Transmitter to SFP+ IN on the Receiver.
- Connect the included DC 5V/1A power adapter to the Transmitter.
- Connect the included DC 5V/1A power adapter to the Receiver.
- Power on the DisplayPort source, monitor, Transmitter, and Receiver.
- Check that the POWER indicator is on for both units.
- Check that the LINK indicator is on for both units.
- Test video and audio at the remote DisplayPort display.
- If video does not display, lower the source resolution, check the fiber cable, check the LINK LEDs, and test with different DisplayPort cables.
Fiber Cable Requirement — Critical
Use the correct fiber cable for the required distance.
| Fiber Type | Maximum Distance |
| Single-mode fiber optic cable | Up to 10km |
| Multi-mode OM4 fiber optic cable | Up to 300m / 1000ft |
Poor or incorrect fiber cable may cause:
- No video
- Flickering
- Black screen
- LINK LED not lighting
- Signal dropouts
- Unstable 4K@60Hz performance
- Audio dropouts
- Monitor not detected
Keep fiber connectors clean and avoid bending the fiber cable beyond its safe bend radius.
DisplayPort Cable Requirement — Critical
Use high-quality DisplayPort cables, especially for 4K@60Hz.
Poor DisplayPort cables may cause:
- No picture
- Flickering
- Black screen
- HDR issues
- Display not detected
- Wrong resolution
- Receiver DP OUT not working
- HDCP handshake issues
- Audio dropouts
For troubleshooting, test the DisplayPort source directly with the monitor before using the extender.
Power Requirement — Critical
The UHD-FODP10-K uses two DC 5V/1A power adapters.
| Unit | Power |
| Transmitter | DC 5V/1A |
| Receiver | DC 5V/1A |
| Power Detail | Value |
| Power adapter input | AC 100–240V, 50/60Hz |
| Power adapter output | DC 5V/1A |
| Transmitter power consumption | 2.75W max |
| Receiver power consumption | 2.5W max |
Both units require external power. This model does not use Power over Cable.
Understanding the Transmitter
The Transmitter is installed near the DisplayPort source.
It has:
- DP IN
- LINK indicator
- SERVICE port
- SFP+ OUT
- POWER indicator
- DC 5V power input
The Transmitter receives DisplayPort from the source and sends the signal over fiber optic cable to the Receiver.
Understanding the Receiver
The Receiver is installed near the remote DisplayPort display.
It has:
- DP OUT
- LINK indicator
- SERVICE port
- SFP+ IN
- POWER indicator
- DC 5V power input
The Receiver receives the fiber signal from the Transmitter and outputs DisplayPort to the connected monitor.
Understanding the Application Example
The application diagram shows a PC connected to the Transmitter using DisplayPort. The Transmitter connects to the Receiver using single-mode fiber optic cable. The Receiver connects to a monitor using DisplayPort. Both the Transmitter and Receiver are connected to their own power supplies.
This shows the main use case: extending one DisplayPort source to one remote DisplayPort monitor over long-distance fiber optic cable.
Understanding LINK and POWER Indicators
| Indicator | Unit | Status | Meaning |
| POWER Indicator | Transmitter | Green on | Transmitter is powered on |
| POWER Indicator | Receiver | Green on | Receiver is powered on |
| LINK Indicator | Transmitter | Green on | Proper fiber connection between Transmitter and Receiver |
| LINK Indicator | Receiver | Green on | Proper fiber connection between Transmitter and Receiver |
If the LINK indicator does not light on both units, check the fiber cable, SFP+ connection, cable type, and both power adapters.
