Eliminate clutter by connecting your PC or Mac directly to an HDMI display, using this short cable. This 3-foot Mini Display Port to HDMI adapter cable offers a single-cable connection from your m DP equipped Mac Book or Ultrabook laptop to an HDMI display or projector. The passive adapter supports video resolutions up to Ultra HD 4K & is Thunderbolt compatible when connected directly to a supporting Display Port over Thunderbolt I/O port. This adapter cable ensures you can maintain an astonishing picture quality, four times the resolution of 1080p, when converting Mini Display Port to HDMI. The adapter is also backward compatible with lower resolution displays & video sources. With support for high-definition resolutions of 1080p & 720p, you can future-proof your existing setup for 4K video. For the simplest & most discreet installation, this m DP to HDMI adapter connects directly from your Mini Display Port video source to the HDMI port on your display. It doesn't need a power source, unlike some converter dongles that require active power & separate video cabling. At 3ft in length, this adapter cable delivers a compact connection that eliminates excess to ensure a tidy, professional installation. For longer installations, Star Tech.com also offers a 6 ft m DP to HDMI cable (MDP2HDMM2MB) enabling you to choose the right cable length for your custom installation needs.
