52 - HDMI Micro

HDMI M

ICRO

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a high-quality, digital
audio/video interface. HDMI allows you to connect any compatible
digital audio/video source, such as your computer, a set-top box, DVD
player, and audio/video receiver to any compatible digital audio and/or
video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV) with a single cable.
The single cable keeps everything neat and tidy while ensuring easy
connection and the best audio and visual quality.
HDMI Micro delivers the same high-quality playback as standard
HDMI, with a slimmer connector, ideal for use in slim-and-light
notebooks and tablet computers.

Note

An HDMI Micro-to-HDMI adapter is included with certain models.
