About HDMI Cable In And Out, HDMI technology allows the transmission of audio and video signals between source and display objects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
An HDMI cord connects HDMI In and HDMI out ports for conducting this transmission on different digital devices like computers, TVs, and home theaters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let\u2019s know more about HDMI cable in and out<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n HDMI input is on either side of the cable, allowing insertion and transmission of audio\/video signals from source devices. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The port is imprinted with \u201cHDMI input\u201d at the back or sides of TVs, monitors, and home theater receivers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can think of an HDMI input as a dark tunnel with no sound or light. It takes or receives light, sound, and bright colors from source devices such as game consoles, <\/p>\n\n\n\n Blu-ray players and Audio\/video receivers. Then, it displays them with an ideal sound and apt color combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Let\u2019s understand this with an example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Suppose you have a laptop and a Blu-Ray device. Your Blu-Ray player is the source device that gives data to the laptop. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To get a display on your laptop, you must connect the Blu-Ray player\u2019s HDMi-out port and the laptop\u2019s HDMI-In port to the TV’s HDMI-Out through any wireless device, cable, or adapter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The HDMI in labels<\/p>\n\n\n HDMI output, opposite to that of HDMI Input, gives sound pitch, pixels, and even ethernet to the HDMI Input.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The sender has audio-video information and ethernet data, which it has to take to the receiver via different means, be it cables, wireless devices, or adapters.<\/p>\n\n\n HDMI out labels<\/p>\n\n\n No, you cannot. HDMI-In and HDMI-Out are two different parts. You cannot interchange them without any support of adapters or HUB.<\/p>\n\n\n You can quickly test whether a port is HDMI Input or HDMI Output by connecting it to the TV to see if it functions as an input or output port.<\/p>\n\n\n You can set a connection between HDMI Input and HDMI output via an HDMI cord. Such cables can easily transmit high-resolution video and audio signals through a single cord. <\/p>\n\n\n\n These cables have plug connectors at their ends featuring 19 pins to make an effective connection. <\/p>\n\n\n\n The plugs at both ends have the same number of pins; thus, you can connect a cable to either of the input\/output ports. <\/p>\n\n\n\n There are no male\/female or left\/right connector ends.<\/p>\n\n\n\nTable of Contents<\/h2>\n
