Key Specifications

Compact Design for Portable Use

Weighing just 30 grams and measuring under 20 cm in total length, this converter is built for mobility. The short 15 cm cable reduces clutter, while the black PVC jacket and ABS housing ensure durability without bulk. Its straight connectors allow for clean, low-profile connections in tight spaces.

Plug-and-Play Installation

Installation requires no drivers or external power. Simply connect the DisplayPort end to your source and the HDMI end to your display. The converter supports audio pass-through when the video source allows it, making it suitable for both video and multimedia applications.

Multi-Display Productivity

This converter enables extending or mirroring your desktop across multiple screens. Whether you’re working from a laptop and need a larger workspace or want to connect to a conference room TV, it provides a straightforward way to add HDMI connectivity to DisplayPort-only devices.
