  • No external power supply is required, and in operation, the device is plug and play*
  • The device handles display resolutions of up to 720p/1080i/1080p (the maximum resolution is limited by the resolution supported by the connected display device).
  • Input: integrated Type-A HDMI plug, Output: standard female DE-15 connector.
  • Material: 99% high-purity oxygen-free copper wire core, 30µ gold-plated terminals for minimal signal loss, and gold-plated HDMI plug for high abrasion resistance.
