Extron Retractor XL Mini DisplayPort-HDMI (part number 70-1066-44) — the five foot, 4K-rated Mini DisplayPort to HDMI retractor in the Retractor Series XL family.

Extended travel is the whole point of the XL housing: 5 feet (152 cm) of cable instead of three, so the HDMI conversion still reaches a source sitting at the far side of a wide table. The Mini DisplayPort connector appears at the surface, the HDMI type A end lands on a switcher or display input below, and there is no adapter anywhere in between to go missing or work loose.

Key Capabilities

• Mini DisplayPort to HDMI on a continuous run extending up to 5 feet (152 cm).
• Maximum video data rate of 10.2 Gbps, or 3.4 Gbps per color.

Where It Is Used

Wide boardroom and council tables, tiered lecture theatres, engineering and design benches, and imaging suites where Mini DisplayPort sources have to drive HDMI displays. Vertical mounting wants roughly 30 inches (76.2 cm) of under-table clearance; horizontal and angular positions are supported with the optional bracket.
