Overview

The UGREEN CM101 HDMI Converter (Model 40744) is a versatile multiport adapter designed to connect a single HDMI source to both HDMI and VGA displays simultaneously, while also extracting audio through a 3.5mm auxiliary port. Supporting Full HD 1080p resolution, this compact device is perfect for classrooms, offices, and entertainment setups that require both digital and analog video compatibility.

1. Functionality

The UGREEN CM101 enables users to connect an HDMI source such as a laptop, gaming console, or media player to two displays at once—one via HDMI and another via VGA. Additionally, it features a 3.5mm audio output, allowing you to connect speakers or headphones for high-quality sound output.

This all-in-one converter eliminates the need for multiple adapters, offering a convenient solution for setups involving both modern and legacy displays.

2. Simultaneous Dual Display

• The HDMI and VGA ports can operate at the same time, allowing mirrored output on two screens.

• Both outputs display identical content (no extended desktop function).

• Perfect for business presentations, classrooms, or demo setups requiring two mirrored displays.

3. Audio Extraction

Since VGA does not carry audio, the 3.5mm auxiliary port provides a separate output for connecting external speakers, soundbars, or headphones.

• Extracts audio directly from the HDMI input signal.

• Supports stereo sound output for clear, consistent audio performance.

4. Video Resolution

The UGREEN CM101 supports:

• Up to 1920×1080 @ 60Hz (Full HD)

  This ensures smooth, high-quality visuals suitable for both work and entertainment environments.

5. Build and Design

• Built with durable ABS plastic housing for longevity and portability.

• Gold-plated connectors reduce signal loss and prevent corrosion, ensuring stable transmission.

• Compact and lightweight design makes it easy to carry for travel, presentations, or on-site installations.

• Includes a Micro USB port for optional power input—useful for low-power HDMI sources such as Raspberry Pi or TV boxes.

• Laptops and desktops (Windows, macOS, Linux)

• Gaming consoles (PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch)

• Media players and set-top boxes

• Streaming sticks (Fire TV, Roku, etc.)

Note: Not compatible with devices that use HDCP encryption for protected content, or with HDMI-to-DP conversion setups.

7. Plug and Play Setup
