I am not sure that I am techie enuff to give an answer, but you can find an answer by going on GOOGLE. It relates on internet & Wi-Fi standards. The HDMI cable allows me to make one cable connection that carries both sound & picture from computer to HDTV. Before HDMI, you would have to connect two cables (one for sound, one for picture). You have to be sure that the two units you are connecting have HDMI ports... older units do not. Be sure that the HDMI cables are correctly sized. There is the most common full size HDMI, but they also make a mini-HDMI cable. I made a technical snafu when I purchased the cable (I didn't measure the cable length I needed correctly). Obviously had to buy another cable in proper length.

That is exactly how I'm using it. The HDMI is plugged into my Dell laptop, and it is connected to a VGA older monitor so I can have a second screen. It works like a charm!

Dear Edil,Thank you for your inquiry. This product is to convert your HDMI signal to CAT5 cabling for long runs. You then use a similar unit at the TV location and convert the CAT5 back to HDMI. Please let me know if I can be of any additional assistance.Regards,Eric CohenWorld Wide Stereo

The HDMI interface is designed to transfer high quality, digital, multi-channel audio signals along with video at extremely high resolutions and color bit-rates. Being a digital signal with data error correction, it is much less susceptible to low-intensity radio frequency and electromagnetic interference, which would cause snow, ghosting, or other signal distortions in an analog signal.

its a normal HDMI plug in, meaning can plug right into you newer TV with a normal HDMI plug. FACTORY RESET a MUST when you get it. don't worry, it wont wipe anything, as long as you do factory reset RIGHT OUT OF BOX. the screen calibrator wont work properly unless this is done. It does have a little 400Mhz graphic card/HDMI plug in. the streaming movies works very well. same as my home pc.really, all and all. for the price it was worth it.

It does not come with HDMI, but it comes with Lenovo DisplayPort. You can buy an adapter to connect to HDMI via DisplayPort.

HDMI is a **digital** communications standard that transmits audio as well as video in a single cable. The essence of the Colossal board is analog; i.e., component cabling (red-blue-green, plus red and white-coded audio). The board has an HDMI input, which the all-too-brief manual concisely states is for unencrypted input from game devices. Whether that could be used for input from a cable box, perhaps, would be best answered by Hauppauge. For my unfavorable review of the board, see the review by Bill_IT dated 5/5/2014.

It just converts HDMI signal to component, the only thing you can change is the format.

Not sure about the type of HDMI, but I can say it is a very loud device. It hums loud enough that we have to turn up the television or movie to hear it over the electronic hum. I would not recommend it for purchase if you are going to be using it for any recording purposes like voice over dubbing which was our intended use.

Not sure which adapter you are referring to. If you're talking about the Audio output I guess what type system you are sending the signal to. Some will decode the audio signal from the HDMI output, others decode it on a separate audio channel. Hope this helps.

Do you mean HDMI? HDE connections are for gamming devices. This is very different from TV or VIDEO devices.

the hdmi can carry an audio signal from your video card, so games etc will play video and audio through the monitors' speakers, whereas, the DVI signal will only carry the video signal w/ no audio. both are indistinguishably great quality video though.

it supports 4k with display port I know.not sure about HDMI. but you will need more than one to play any game at that resolution.
