Belkin Launches Wireless HDMI Adapter With 131-Foot Range

Belkin has introduced a wireless display adapter that pushes screen mirroring well beyond usual cable lengths — and does it without relying on local Wi-Fi networks or software platforms.

The ConnectAir Wireless HDMI Display Adapter pairs a USB-C transmitter for laptops, tablets, and smartphones with an HDMI receiver plugged into a TV or projector. There are no drivers to install and no apps to manage. Belkin says the system can send video up to 131 feet, a range aimed squarely at conference rooms, classrooms, and temporary setups like hotel rooms or event spaces.

The pitch is flexibility: Unlike AirPlay or Google Cast, the adapter isn’t tied to a specific ecosystem. Any device that can output video over USB-C will work, as long as the destination screen has an HDMI port. Video tops out at 1080p at 60Hz. The receiver itself needs power via USB-A, which may mean leaning on a display’s spare port or an external adapter.

The link runs over a dedicated 5GHz wireless connection rather than a local network. Belkin says the signal can pass through walls, though distance and reliability will vary depending on materials and layout. One receiver can also be paired with up to eight transmitters, letting multiple users switch presenters without touching a ceiling-mounted projector or hard-to-reach screen.

The ConnectAir adapter is expected to ship in select markets in the first quarter of 2026, priced at $149.99.
