Product Information
Full details
This Lindy HDMI adapter is for users needing to connect HDMI cables in tight spaces or where port obstruction is a concern, offering a key benefit of flexible cable routing. A potential caveat is that its bulkier design, even with the swivel, might still interfere with exceptionally narrow bezels or uniquely shaped ports. This adapter features a 360-degree rotating connector, allowing it to swivel and rotate to nearly any angle, enabling easier connections for bulkier HDMI cables without blocking adjacent ports on notebooks, PCs, or TVs. It supports all HDMI revisions and is particularly useful for space-constrained environments like in-car setups.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the 360-degree swivel?
The primary benefit is the flexibility to route HDMI cables in tight spaces or around obstacles, preventing port blockage and reducing strain on connections.
Does this adapter support 4K resolution?
Yes, the adapter supports all HDMI revisions, which includes support for high resolutions like 4K, provided that the source device, display, and the HDMI cable itself also support 4K.
Can I use this adapter with older HDMI devices?
Yes, the adapter is backward compatible and supports all HDMI revisions, meaning it will work with older HDMI versions as well.
Will this adapter block adjacent ports on my device?
The design is specifically intended to prevent the obstruction of adjacent ports, especially when connecting bulkier HDMI cables. The swivel function allows the cable to be routed away from neighboring connections.
What is the gender of the connectors?
The adapter has one HDMI Male connector (input) and one HDMI Female connector (output).
Is this adapter powered?
No, this is a passive adapter and does not require external power. It simply facilitates the connection and rotation of an HDMI signal.
Troubleshooting
No signal detected after connecting the adapter.
Ensure all HDMI cables are securely plugged into the adapter and the source/display devices. Try connecting the HDMI cable directly without the adapter to verify cable functionality. Check that the correct input is selected on your display.
Intermittent signal or flickering image.
Verify that the adapter's swivel is not placed at an extreme angle that may be stressing the connection. Ensure there are no obstructions around the adapter that could be putting pressure on it. Try a different HDMI cable.
Adapter does not fit properly.
Confirm that both the source device and the display have standard HDMI ports. Ensure no debris is obstructing the ports. The adapter is designed for standard HDMI connections and may not fit non-standard or recessed ports.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility: This adapter is compatible with all devices featuring standard HDMI ports, supporting all HDMI revisions (including older and newer standards). It works with notebooks, PCs, monitors, TVs, projectors, and other HDMI-enabled equipment.
Care: Keep the connectors clean and free of dust. Use a dry, soft cloth for cleaning the adapter's exterior. Avoid exposing the adapter to extreme temperatures or moisture. The swivel mechanism should be moved gently to ensure longevity.
