This HDMI cable from Sanus joins the pivot-head crowd. I’ve had a little bit of difficulty at times when wall mounting a TV and getting the HDMI cable plugged into the back. It think this pivoting connector could make life a little easier.
These pivoting HDMI cables will set you back $30 to $50 depending on the length, so it looks like it works out to be a little cheaper than iConnects’ offerings.

They support 10-bit, 12-bit and 16-bit (RGB or YCbCr) color depths for deep, rich color.
The cables are available for a list price of $29.99 (ELM402-G1), $39.99 (ELM405-G1) and $49.99 (ELM410-G1).
