Mascom International stocks the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable 10M at KSh 10,000, brand new and sealed. Sold under model code AOC-CHDMI-10, it runs 10 metres from a USB Type-C male plug to an HDMI Type-A male plug and carries 4K at 60Hz with HDR support. The Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable is an audio and video cable only: it sends picture and sound to a display, but it does not charge your laptop or carry USB data. It is in stock at our shop in Old Mutual Building, Kimathi Street, Nairobi CBD.
Built for lecturers, pastors, event technicians, sales teams and executives across Kenya, the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable solves the long-run display problem. Modern laptops often have only USB-C ports, while the projector or TV sits at the front of the room with HDMI. A dongle plus a long copper HDMI lead adds two weak points and often flickers or drops the picture. This single active optical cable goes straight from the laptop to the screen, using fibre inside to keep 4K picture steady across 10 metres. It works with any USB-C port that outputs DisplayPort Alt Mode video.
Where most Nairobi electronics shops offer short USB-C adapters and hope a long HDMI lead fills the gap, Mascom International sells one purpose-built Infobit cable for the whole run. Infobit builds it to the DisplayPort 1.2 specification with HDCP 2.2 and states that it suffers no RF interference. Customers across Nairobi tell us the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable ended last-minute fumbling before presentations and services. Test the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable with your own laptop at Kimathi Street, or order on WhatsApp and pay on arrival.
Common Questions About the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable
How much is the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable 10M in Kenya?
The Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable 10M costs KSh 10,000 brand new at Mascom International in Nairobi CBD. That includes the 10-metre AOC-CHDMI-10 cable and a 6-month warranty against manufacturing defects. Delivery is pay-on-arrival, so you can test the picture before paying. For HDMI-to-HDMI runs, the Infobit HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable costs KSh 10,800 in 10 metres, KSh 800 more, and KSh 13,000 in 20 metres. Choose this cable when your laptop has USB-C video output.
Does the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable charge my laptop or carry USB data?
No, the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable carries audio and video only, with no charging and no USB data. It takes the picture and sound from your laptop's USB-C port and delivers them to an HDMI display. Your laptop still needs its own charger during long presentations, so plan a power point near the lectern. A webcam, mouse or flash drive cannot run through this cable either. For a single port that adds charging, USB and network, look at a USB-C hub instead.
Which laptops and phones work with the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable?
The Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable works with any device whose USB-C port outputs DisplayPort Alt Mode video. Many business laptops, MacBooks and some higher-end Android phones support it, but not every USB-C port does. Some budget laptops and phones use USB-C only for charging and data, and those will show no picture. Check for a DisplayPort or Thunderbolt symbol beside the port, or send your model to Mascom International on WhatsApp and we will confirm before you buy.
Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable or Infobit HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable: which should I buy?
Pick the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable if your laptop has USB-C video output and no full-size HDMI port. Pick the Infobit HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable if your source already has HDMI, such as a desktop, decoder, console or older laptop. Both cover 10 metres, and the HDMI version costs KSh 10,800 against KSh 10,000 for this cable. The HDMI version also comes in 20 metres at KSh 13,000 for larger halls. Venues mixing new laptops and fixed AV gear often keep one of each.
Will generators and power cables in Kenyan venues affect the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable?
Infobit states the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable has no RF interference, because fibre carries the picture as light rather than electricity. That matters in church halls, hotel conference rooms and lecture theatres where cables share trunking with mains wiring. When KPLC power drops and the backup generator starts, a copper HDMI run can flicker or lose the picture, while optical fibre is not affected by that electrical noise. The laptop and projector still need power from the generator or a UPS to keep running.
Does the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable support 4K HDR and streaming apps?
Yes, the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable carries 4K at 60Hz and supports HDR displays. It also handles 4K at 30Hz, 1080p, 1080i and 720p, so older projectors work too. HDCP 2.2 support means protected content from streaming services and Blu-ray players can play to a compatible screen. HDMI 3D dual view is listed as well. For a sales team in Upper Hill presenting detailed spreadsheets, 4K keeps small figures readable on a large boardroom TV.
Is the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable better than a USB-C hub and a long HDMI cable?
For a single long display run, the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable is the simpler and steadier choice. A hub plus a long copper HDMI lead adds an extra connection and depends on copper over 10 metres. The Infobit USB-C Hub with HDMI and RJ45 at KSh 8,000 suits a desk where you also need wired internet and USB ports. The optical cable suits a fixed run from lectern to projector, where only picture and sound need to travel.
Who should buy the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable, and who should skip it?
Buy the Infobit USB-C to HDMI Active Optical Cable if you present from a USB-C laptop to a screen up to 10 metres away. Lecturers at the University of Nairobi or JKUAT, pastors, trainers and event crews get the most from it. Skip it if your laptop's USB-C port has no video output, or if your source has HDMI, where the Infobit HDMI 2.0 Active Optical Cable fits better. Skip it too if you need charging or USB devices through one port.

Build and Fibre Construction
- Active fibre optical design — picture travels as light, holding 4K quality over the full 10 metres.
- No RF interference stated by Infobit — signals stay steady beside mains cables, lighting and motors.
- 10-metre length — reaches from a lectern or desk to a ceiling projector or wall-mounted screen.
