The LINDY Display Port to HDMI Adapter means that you can connect newer PCs & Laptops with Display Port connections to HDMI equipped monitors or displays. Simply connect the adapter to the Display Port of the source device & the HDMI end of the adapter to an external HDMI monitor or projector. Information regarding audio support: Audio output over HDMI is only supported when the graphics card of the notebook or desktop computer supports audio output over Display Port. Several on-board graphics adapters such as Mobile Intel 4 Series Express Chipset in Notebooks (i.e. Dell E6400) do NOT support audio output over Display Port, even when HDMI support (Intel High Definition Audio HDMI Service) is installed for audio controllers. In such instances a separate audio connection has to be set up.
