In-depth technical details

HDMI Type-A carries 19 pins: TMDS pairs for the video/audio signal itself, plus control lines -- CEC (single remote controlling multiple devices), DDC/+5V (the EDID handshake that lets the source learn the display's supported resolutions), and HPD (Hot Plug Detect, how the source knows a display is actually connected).

Connector anatomy

HDMI Type-A

01 19 pins Three differential TMDS pairs carry picture and sound, a fourth carries the clock, and the rest are named-function pins.
02 CEC A single wire that lets one remote control multiple connected devices, e.g. a TV and a receiver.
03 DDC / +5V The EDID handshake -- how the source learns which resolutions the display supports.
04 HPD Hot Plug Detect -- how the source knows a display is connected at all.
05 Metal shell The shell is grounded and wraps the pins, keeping interference out of a very high-frequency signal.
06 Strain-relief boot Stops the wires flexing where they leave the plug — the exact point most cables fail.
07 Outer jacket The outer sheath protecting the conductors inside from abrasion and moisture.

How it works

The phone has no real HDMI port; the cable carries a converter circuit that turns the phone's own charging-port signalling (USB-C DisplayPort Alt Mode or the equivalent) into a genuine HDMI signal. Whether it works depends on that specific phone's port actually supporting external video output -- not every phone does, even with the correct cable.

Function: Converts a phone's port signalling to real HDMI video
Requirement: Phone's own port must support external video output
