Here is the solution you've been waiting for.  While Apple brings their latest line of computers to the cutting edge by introducing the Mini-DisplayPort, consumers who want to utilize their Macs® with their HDMI® equipped HDTV's are forced to use separate audio and video connections.  This can be especially troublesome if your TV doesn't have any analog audio inputs to accompany the HDMI®. This adapter connects to a female Mini DisplayPort to provide video, a USB output to provide power, and includes a mini TOSlink to TOSlink cable to connect from the 3.5mm (1/8 inch) digital audio output of your compatible Mac® to the TOSlink input on the adapter in order to deliver true digital audio and video output to the adapter's female HDMI® port. All you need to add is a male to male HDMI® cable to connect from the adapter to your television and you're ready to view AND hear movies, games, or anything that's displayed on your Mac®.

 

This device is not bi-directional.  It can only connect a Mini-DisplayPort source to an HDMI® display.  It will not work in reverse.

 

Thunderbolt® compatible

 

Note* On some models of Mac® computers the connector may block access to the adjacent USB accessory port.
