Abstract

A multi-port connector having DisplayPort and HDMI connector includes a seat body, a DisplayPort, an HDMI connector, a sealing lid and an outer casing. A first slot and a second slot are respectively arranged on the seat body. At back of the seat body, there is a recessing part, at upper portion of which an assembling opening communicated to the first slot is arranged. A plurality of slots are arranged on a wall surface of the recessing part. The DisplayPort is assembled in the first slot, while the HDMI connector is assembled in the second slot. The sealing lid is assembled to the recessing part. A protruding portion arranged at the sealing lid is assembled to the assembling opening. On a wall surface of the sealing lid, there are a plurality of striping ribs snapped into the slots. The outer casing externally fitted to the seat body is arranged a first perforation and a second perforation at front side face thereof. The first and second perforations respectively correspond to a plug-in opening of DisplayPort and a slot of HDMI connector, while a set of assembling legs are extended at a bottom part of a side face of the outer casing. The multi-port connector is to provide a plug-in function for the transmitting lines of the Displayport and the HDMI.

Claims
