Irvine, CA/Brisbane, AU – April 19, 2012 – Rainbow Fish Fiber Optic, Inc. the inventor
of Fiber Optic for HDMI, has appointed NetOpt of Brisbane, to distribute its line of Fiber Optic HDMI cables to the professional, residential and consumer electronics trades in Australia, New Zealand and Fiji.

“Rainbow Fish Fiber Optic HDMI is the best choice for long distance HDMI. High definition video connections for distributed video networks, digital signage, and home
theater can be easilymade with Rainbow Fish. Our product combines two technologies; fiber optics and HDMI and we are the first company in the world to do this. It’s a truly remarkable invention,” said BuzzDelano of Rainbow Fish Fiber Optic.

Rainbow Fish cables convert the HDMI input signal to optical signal at the source and
pass the signal through fiber optics to the display device where the connector converts the optical signal back to HDMI for easy connection to an HDMI input. Power is supplied internallywith Rainbow Fish. The source (send) connector draws the required power from the HDMI output while the display (receive) connector includes a USB connector for power to be drawn from an available USB port on the display. The USB powermay be extended via a 5VUSB to AC adapter should no USB port be accessible.

NetOpt is a diverse Information and Telecommunications company with a focus on
virtualization, and infrastructure solutions with a niche and value-add distribution
business for technology solutions to re-sellers and system integrators with local
knowledge of their regions and the ability to educate and create awareness of new
technology solutions.
