A power adapting device includes an upper housing, a power conversion module, and a lower housing. The upper housing comprises a first slot and a second slot. A first power adapter interface is disposed at a bottom of the first slot. A second power adapter interface is disposed at a bottom of the second slot. The first power adapter interface conducts an AC power signal to an external device. The second power adapter interface conducts a DC power signal to an external device. The power conversion module converts the AC power signal into the DC power signal and to transmit the converted DC power signal to the second power adapter interface. The lower housing covers the power conversion module with the upper housing. The lower housing includes a cable transfer interface for transmitting the external power supply to the first power adapter interface or the power conversion module.

An adapter system is provided that facilitates convenient access to a plurality of adapters, e.g., DVI-D to HDMI adapter(s), Micro-HDMI to HDMI adapter(s), Mini-HDMI to HDMI adapter(s), Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter(s), DisplayPort to HDMI adapter(s), VGA to HDMI adapter(s), MNL to HDMI adapter(s), and/or USB to HDMI adapter(s). The adapter system includes an elongated wire that features a plurality of adapters mounted/secured with respect thereto. The wire is at least partially stored within a housing and extends therefrom. The adapters are mounted/secured with respect to a portion of the wire that extends from the housing. The housing includes a retraction mechanism that facilitates retraction of the wire into the housing for convenient storage thereof. The present disclosure further provides structures that are configured and dimensioned to receive the disclosed housing, e.g., in office, commercial and/or residential environments, thereby facilitating access to the adapters that are mounted/secured with respect to the wire. In use, the disclosed adapter system permits a user to readily access and individually utilize each of the adapters mounted/secured with respect to the wire on an as-needed basis and to store at least the portion of the wire that does not include mounted/secured adapters within a housing. Retraction of the wire into the housing is facilitated by the disclosed retraction mechanism.
