This connector is a right-angle connector, which is designed to sit flush with the panel of the female port, and this is particularly useful for projects in which space is limited, as well as simply to keep the cable and connector more secure from the standard wear and tear that most cables are typically prone to. It can either be used as a replacement part or modification for an existing cable, or it can be used in conjunction with DIY HDMI Ribbon Cable to build entire custom cables for televisions, computer screens or a variety of different Electronics projects.
