What is an HDMI Adopter, and why does it matter to a buyer?
An HDMI Adopter is a company licensed by HDMI Licensing Administrator to build HDMI products; certification of the cable model is a separate step.
Answer: an HDMI Adopter is a company licensed to manufacture HDMI products. It is a company-level status — the certification of a specific cable model is a separate step.
For a buyer this matters because it separates two questions that are often blurred in sales material: is the company licensed, and is this model certified. Always ask for the second one in writing.
Tonetron is a certified HDMI Adopter and publishes certificate images on our HDMI Adopter page rather than asking buyers to take a claim on trust.
