Huidu HD-FT01 TX/RX Fiber Transceiver Overview
The Huidu HD-FT01-TX/RX LED display fiber transceiver converts electrical signals from a Gigabit RJ45 connection into optical signals and back again. This fiber converter extends the signal path between an LED controller and the display when a copper cable run is too long. Huidu recommends fiber transmission for LED display communication distances beyond 100 meters.
For buyers searching for fiber TX RX, TX means the transmitting end and RX means the receiving end. Select a matched pair for the link, with compatible optical wavelengths and connectors. The converter carries the control signal; screen configuration and pixel capacity still depend on the sending controller and receiving cards.

Distance and power selection: Huidu’s current HD-FT08/01 series page advertises transmission up to 20 km, while the model-specific V1.1 specification lists 0–25 km. Confirm the optical version and link budget for your cable route before ordering. Use the device label and matching adapter for power: the interface table and hardware image show 5V DC, although the document overview mentions 220V supply.
How to Connect the TX and RX Units
Typical signal path: LED sending controller → RJ45 cable → HD-FT01 TX → compatible single-mode fiber → HD-FT01 RX → RJ45 cable → LED receiving card.
- Identify the sending-controller and receiving-card models, and confirm their signal compatibility with the converter.
- Match the TX/RX optical versions, wavelengths and SC/LC connectors. Check the total fiber length, splices and patch connections.
- Connect the controller side and display side with the appropriate RJ45 cables, then connect the fiber link.
- Power each unit with the correct supply. Check the power, fiber and link indicators before commissioning the screen.
What to Confirm Before Buying
Prepare the controller model, receiving-card model, number of signal channels and cable-route length. These details help determine whether this converter fits the project. An RJ45 connector alone does not establish compatibility with a particular LED control protocol.
Confirm whether the quotation includes one unit or a TX/RX pair, the optical connector version, power adapters and fiber cable. Custom long-distance options should be specified in the quotation. Browse our Huidu LED control products and LED receiving cards, or contact us with your system details for selection help.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does TX/RX mean on an LED fiber transceiver?
TX identifies the transmitter and RX identifies the receiver in the fiber signal path. Check both ends together when selecting replacement units.
Does the HD-FT01 replace an LED receiving card?
No. Its role is signal conversion and transport. The receiving card remains part of the LED display control system.
Can I use any fiber converter with my LED controller?
Confirm the exact controller, protocol and optical specifications first. Do not choose a replacement solely because its RJ45 and fiber connectors look the same.
Is the fiber transmission distance guaranteed for every installation?
The usable distance depends on the supplied optical version and the installed link. Cable loss, splices and connector condition must be considered when planning the route.
Conclusion
Choose the Huidu HD-FT01 TX/RX fiber converter when your LED signal route needs an optical extension. Match both ends of the link and confirm compatibility, connector type, distance and power before ordering.
