ATEN 2X-EA12 HDMI Connector Lock
Overview
The ATEN 2X-EA12 is an HDMI connector lock designed to prevent accidental cable disconnection in rack-mount AV and KVM installations. In environments where cable pull-out means a lost signal — production racks, server rooms, AV distribution frames — a physical retention mechanism is the straightforward fix. The 2X-EA12 addresses that problem directly, keeping HDMI connections seated under vibration, incidental contact, or cable-weight stress common in dense rack deployments.
Compatibility
The 2X-EA12 is designed for use with ATEN rack-mount products that expose standard HDMI ports. Verify port orientation and panel clearance against your specific ATEN unit before ordering — HDMI connector locks are port-geometry dependent and not universal across all chassis form factors. Consult the ATEN product line for compatible ATEN KVM switches, extenders, and AV distribution equipment in your rack.
Installation Notes
Storage temperature range is -20–60°C; operating environment should stay within 0–95% relative humidity, non-condensing. For rack-mount ATEN products, note that physical dimensions are expressed in L×W×H format rather than the conventional W×D×H — confirm orientation in your rack plan accordingly. No special tools are specified in available documentation beyond standard installation practice for HDMI retention hardware.
