The HDMI Male to HDMI Female 90° Up Adapter is the perfect solution for wall-mounted flat panel installations, where there is limited clearance for the HDMI cable connector in the space between the flat panel and the wall. In these installations, the weight of the HDMI cable may stress the HDMI connector, shortening the life of the cable. Over time, this stress and the constant plugging and unplugging of cables can cause the HDMI ports on the display to wear down and become damaged, leading to a degraded picture quality. This adapter protects the HDMI port on the display and may extend the life of the HDMI cable. The adapter is angled to 90° to enable connections in a tight area. Alleviating stress from the HDMI connector, it can also absorb the abuse of repeated plugging and unplugging; thus protecting HDMI port. This compact HDMI adapter is a quick and easy way to extend the life of valuable equipment.
