Extron MDP-HDMI/6 (part number 26-674-06) — a 6 ft (1.8 m) active adapter cable that connects a dual-mode Mini DisplayPort source to an HDMI display.

Active circuitry built into the Mini DisplayPort end converts the DisplayPort stream into HDMI, so the cable behaves like an ordinary HDMI lead once it is plugged in — no separate converter box, no external supply. EDID travels back from the display to the source, which is what stops a laptop offering a resolution the projector cannot show. Extron finishes the assembly in a white jacket with moulded ends so it is easy to pick out of a bundle in a table box, and every contact surface is gold plated.
