Vertical Mount HDMI Connector Female 19 Pin Overview

The vertical mount HDMI connector female 19 pin is a full-featured Type-A HDMI receptacle engineered for perpendicular PCB mounting in space-constrained enclosures. This female 19 pin HDMI connector combines SMT surface mount signal pins with through-hole shell brackets, delivering robust mechanical retention and excellent signal integrity for high-definition video applications. Fully compliant with HDMI Forum specifications, this SMT through hole HDMI solution supports bandwidth up to 48 Gbps when paired with HDMI 2.1 systems.

Unlike standard right-angle connectors that extend along the PCB edge, this HDMI Type A vertical design mounts perpendicular to the board surface, with the port facing upward or downward. This orientation is ideal for devices with limited front-panel space, stacked PCB architectures, and applications requiring cable entry from the top or bottom of the enclosure. The 19-pin layout includes four TMDS data lanes (Pins 1–12), DDC clock/data channels (Pins 15–16), CEC control (Pin 13), +5V power (Pin 18), and Hot Plug Detect (Pin 19), enabling full compatibility with all HDMI features including ARC, eARC, Ethernet Channel, and HDCP 2.3.

The hybrid SMT+through-hole mounting style provides the best of both worlds: SMT signal pins enable automated assembly and compact footprint, while metal through-hole brackets ensure superior mechanical stability against cable pull and vibration. Manufactured under ISO 9001:2015 standards, this 19 pin HDMI receptacle supports resolutions from 1080p to 8K@60Hz through gold-plated copper alloy contacts. Fully RoHS 3 and REACH compliant, this RoHS HDMI connector is ready for global export.

FAQ

What is a vertical mount HDMI connector female 19 pin?

A vertical mount HDMI connector female 19 pin is a Type-A HDMI receptacle that mounts perpendicular to the PCB surface, with the port facing upward or downward at 180°. This female 19 pin HDMI connector uses a hybrid mounting approach: SMT signal pins for automated assembly compatibility and through-hole metal brackets for robust mechanical retention. The HDMI Type A vertical orientation is ideal for devices with limited front-panel space, stacked PCB designs, and applications requiring top or bottom cable entry.

What is the difference between vertical and right-angle HDMI connectors?

Vertical mount HDMI connectors sit perpendicular to the PCB (180°), with the port facing up or down. Right-angle HDMI connectors sit parallel to the PCB (90°), with the port facing the board edge. Vertical mounts are preferred when the enclosure design requires cable entry from the top or bottom, or when multiple PCBs are stacked closely together. Right-angle mounts are better for side-panel cable entry. Both use the same 19-pin layout and are fully compatible with all HDMI cables.

Does this connector support HDMI 2.1 and 8K video?

Yes. The vertical mount HDMI connector female 19 pin (HDMI-AF-1915) is fully compatible with HDMI 2.1. The 19-pin physical interface is unchanged across HDMI 1.4, 2.0, and 2.1 standards. When paired with HDMI 2.1 cabling and chipsets, it supports up to 48 Gbps bandwidth via FRL (Fixed Rate Link), enabling 8K@60Hz, 4K@120Hz, Dynamic HDR, VRR, and eARC. For full 48 Gbps performance, ensure your PCB layout follows HDMI Forum impedance control guidelines with proper differential pair routing.

What is the HDMI 19-pin pinout and signal assignment?

The 19 pin HDMI receptacle pinout is standardized across all HDMI versions: Pins 1–3 = TMDS Data 2+/- and Shield; Pins 4–6 = TMDS Data 1+/- and Shield; Pins 7–9 = TMDS Data 0+/- and Shield; Pins 10–12 = TMDS Clock+/- and Shield; Pin 13 = CEC; Pin 14 = Reserved/HEAC+ (HDMI 1.4+); Pins 15–16 = DDC Clock (SCL) and Data (SDA); Pin 17 = DDC/CEC Ground; Pin 18 = +5V Power (max 55mA); Pin 19 = Hot Plug Detect (HPD). In HDMI 2.1 FRL mode, the TMDS clock pair is repurposed as an additional data lane, delivering 4×12 Gbps channels for 48 Gbps total bandwidth.

What are the benefits of SMT + through-hole hybrid mounting?

The SMT through hole HDMI hybrid design offers dual advantages: SMT signal pins enable automated pick-and-place assembly and reflow soldering, reducing manufacturing costs and improving consistency. The through-hole metal shell brackets provide superior mechanical retention against cable insertion force, vibration, and accidental cable pulls. This combination is ideal for high-reliability applications including industrial equipment, digital signage, and public kiosks where connectors experience frequent use.

Are your HDMI connectors RoHS and REACH compliant?

Yes. Our RoHS HDMI connector products, including the HDMI-AF-1915, comply with RoHS 3 (EU Directive 2015/863) and REACH SVHC regulations. We use lead-free solder plating, halogen-free thermoplastic housing materials (UL94V-0), and environmentally controlled manufacturing processes. Full compliance certificates and material declarations are available for OEM/ODM customers requiring documentation for global export and CE compliance.

Can this connector be used in industrial and commercial applications?

Yes. This industrial display HDMI connector is rated for -40°C to +85°C operation with 5,000-cycle durability and stainless steel EMI shielding. It is suitable for industrial HMI panels, digital signage, public kiosks, medical imaging equipment, and arcade gaming machines. The vertical orientation is particularly valuable for rack-mounted equipment, control cabinets, and devices with stacked PCB architectures. Custom variants with enhanced retention, conformal coating, and extended temperature ratings are available upon request.

What is the MOQ and lead time?

Standard MOQ for the vertical mount HDMI connector female 19 pin (HDMI-AF-1915) is 1,000 pieces with a 2–4 week lead time. Free engineering samples are available for qualified projects and OEM/ODM customers. Volume pricing and dedicated production schedules are offered for orders of 10,000+ pieces. Contact our sales team to discuss your home theater HDMI connector or industrial application requirements.

Do you provide PCB footprints and technical drawings?

Yes. We provide comprehensive technical documentation including 2D/3D CAD drawings, PCB footprint libraries for Altium, Eagle, and KiCad, and high-speed routing guidelines. Our engineering team offers design review services to ensure optimal signal integrity for your 19 pin HDMI receptacle implementation, including recommendations for TMDS differential pair routing, DDC channel configuration, and HPD circuit design. All documentation is available after sample request approval.
