Mini HDMI Type C is the newest peripheral connector for the next generation of HDMI devices. The mini HDMI is used on most Digital Cameras, Digital Camcorders and other new slimmer portable electronics. The 8 inch pigtail adapter converts an HDMI Type A to a mini HDMI Type C and provides the best solution without having to pay for another HDMI Cable. Unlike a solid piece adapter this 8 inch pigtail provides crucial strain relief for the sensitive mini HDMI connectors on the digital camcorder.
