Is the input signal on your TV or AV receiver insufficient? Do you want to connect two TVs to one source? Cheap HDMI switches and splitters can be saved.
A simple HDMI switch (from an IO device) can add much-needed inputs to a TV or AV receiver.
Tired of swapping
cable? Did you just buy a new one
Console, there is no place to insert? Want to run the same signal to multiple
? My friend, you need an HDMI switch or an HDMI splitter. They are an inexpensive way to keep your current equipment relevant and useful. But which is which?
Techole launched a $10 2x1 switch. Yes, that is the actual company name.
The words "switch" and "splitter" are often used interchangeably, but the device itself has the opposite effect. We will go into details, but the short version is that the HDMI switch has multiple sources, such as
with
, And allows you to choose (switch) between them to send a cable to the TV. As you may already know, a splitter receives a signal and separates it through multiple HDMI cables.
For most people reading this book, you may need a switch. Although a dispenser is required in many cases, it is not common for ordinary consumers.
The main reason to use HDMI switching is your TV, AV receiver or
The number of resources entered is too small.
For example, your TV has two HDMI inputs, and you have a cable box, a Roku and an Xbox. I'm pretty sure that many of you have Xbox and PlayStation, and have to swap HDMI cables to play games on the other. The switch can also help you. Fortunately, they are not that expensive.
When you buy a switch, please keep some precautions in mind. Get more input than you need. Of course, you may change the streaming media or game console to a new model, but it is also possible that you will get something new and require an additional HDMI input. In addition, some switches have remote controls. In any case, it is not a major event, but it must be convenient.
The switch requires multiple sources (in this case, two game consoles and a laptop), and then sends them to the monitor.
It is important to ensure that any switch you are considering matches at least the resolution and HDMI version of the latest device. Many switches are HDMI 1.4, suitable for 1080p, but not for most 4K. HDMI 2.0 switcher is definitely worth spending more money. Even if your current resource is not 4K, your next resource will definitely be 4K. HDMI 2.0 is backward compatible, but you cannot "upgrade" the HDMI 1.4 switch to 2.0.
4x1 switch. Four inputs, one output to the TV.
If you need a switch urgently, consider the following: HDMI ports on TVs and other devices are not built for repeated connection and disconnection. Whenever you want to switch the signal source, you have to pull out the HDMI cable, which will cause wear and tear on the cable and equipment. The switch will reduce wear, extend the life of the gear, and reduce the trouble of using the audio-visual system.
We currently have no recommendations for specific HDMI switches, but you can find many options on Amazon for only $10 or less.

If you have only one signal source and want to send the signal from that source to multiple TVs, you need an HDMI splitter. Maybe the TV is in a different room, or in the same room, you have a TV during the day and a projector at night. The splitter will copy the signal and send it out via multiple HDMI cables. Some separators are also switches, with multiple "inputs" and multiple "outputs." We will discuss these in the next section.
1x8 splitter: one signal source can be connected to eight TVs or projectors.
If you want to display two monitors at the same time, remember that the maximum resolution of all monitors is
The resolution display is. Therefore, if you have 4K source, 4K TV and 1080p TV, 4K source can only send 1080p. The splitter does not just convert the TV to a 1080p signal.
In theory, you shouldn't have copyright protection issues...in theory. You should be able to send whatever content you want to multiple TVs through the distributor. However, this does not guarantee that you will not encounter any problems.

"It's black magic, sometimes it can only be solved by dancing with the HDMI logo painted on the floor with unicorn tears. This is especially true for older monitors and signal sources. Before buying, please make sure it passes HDCP. In the product description in.
1x4 distributor.
Although there are some unpowered splitters on the market, it is better to have a power splitter. They are only slightly more money, and your settings are more likely to work without dropped connections or connection problems.
As with switches, we currently have no recommendations for specific HDMI splitters, but you can find many options on Amazon for only $10 or less.
I mentioned here that some products on Amazon (and elsewhere) are mislabeled. For example, in the splitter link above, some switches are shown, one of which (
) Is a switch, not a splitter, even if the word "HDMI splitter" appears in its description. But now that you have read so far, you will know the difference and can shop with confidence, right?
The names of the separators and many switches will carry the number of inputs and outputs. Therefore, the "1x3" splitter will send one input to three outputs.
At the same time, unlike the above-mentioned mislabeled devices, some devices combine a switch and a separator in the same box. The "4x2" switch is also a distributor, with four inputs and two outputs. It can send any one of the four signal sources to two TVs.
On the commercial side, the number of inputs and outputs has greatly increased, and you can use 16x16 splitters/switches or more. These are usually called matrix switches. CNET's TV laboratory uses 8x8 matrix switches to send multiple 4K HDR signals to multiple TVs for side-by-side comparison tests.
Installing anything in the TV test lab has never been so exciting for me.
Of course, you don't need to worry about these. For most people, only 3x1 or 4x1 switches are needed.
One last thing to remember. Adding any device to the HDMI chain may cause problems. HDMI is a monster, you may stumble upon some combination of unusable signal sources, switches/splitters, cables and displays. What's even more frustrating is that it doesn't work reliably, cutting it off randomly like the most annoying electronic demon in the world. There is no way to prevent this from happening, and it's not common, it's just something to remember. You may need to do some troubleshooting. You may be able to solve this problem by opening the gears in a specific order, but this may not work either. There is no simple solution, just trial and error.
However, in most cases, the switch will make your life easier, and the shunt can be set in certain gears, which is not possible in other cases. Convenient little device, isn't it?

We sometimes unplug a device from the TV, and then only use the same HDMI cable to plug in something newer and better, which makes us feel inwardly gui. The HDMI port has excellent versatility, which seems like a good idea, and frankly, it's much easier than climbing behind the TV and re-passing the entertainment unit to reroute the cable.
However, although they look similar, not all HDMI cables are the same, and you may find yourself missing on some new Xbox Series X
.
HDMI has four basic speeds:
The names are really confusing, so it's easy to confuse them. But basically they can transmit data at different speeds. It can transmit data to the TV faster, and the more data that can be transmitted, the more beautiful things will look.
The biggest new feature of Xbox Series X is its 4K HDR 120FPS (or 8K HDR 60FPS) game, and without two things, you won’t get it: a TV with 4K HDR
And ultra-high speed HDMI cable.
Considering the expensive and expensive nature of ultra-high-speed cables, it is likely that you have not plugged a cable into the old Xbox One yet, so you will need to run the new cable and pack the old cable with the old console.
On the other hand, the S series only comes with regular high-speed cables, so if you want to get 60FPS 4K HDR or 1440p 120FPS, you may want to consider upgrading to Premium High Speed cables.

Before starting to transfer to USB-C, it is ignored like a USB cable (this just transfers the failover to the power supply, not the cable or phone/device)
Also, some longer HDMI cables are directional, if you reverse the plug, they will not send a signal, and they will have arrows, labels, and the size difference of the source plug (and, the cost is $100+)
There is usually no way to accurately determine whether the HDMI cable is 1.2, 1.4, 2.0 or 2.1, just like USB can carry 0.5A, 1A, 2A+ or QC fast charging voltage, until the protocol "handshake" due to signal speed and shielding, weave Or measure the difference that has been tested and failed.
You won’t know until it doesn’t work.
Even if it says it supports 48Gbps
Hz, until you test it, and various devices have problems that cannot be upgraded or changed.
Or you have a tester/diagnostic dongle with protocol/current screen to show what the source device and target device can negotiate. For USB, you can get these for about US$20. For HDMI, you usually need a price of more than US$300 to US$3000 to test the cable, but the test signal source and receiving TV can handle HGIG, VRR, Dolby Vision, eARC and often. Upgraded new 4K and 8K resolutions.
For HDMI 2.0/2.1, the speed of most of these devices is 18gbps (
) And used as EDID or signal/video processing software dog. At the high end, they can create VRR or HGIG signals, high-definition audio such as DTS-HDMA or Dolby Atmos, and Dolby Vision/HDR test signals for room calibration and cable/TV testing.
Because these devices are interpreting the EDID handshake between HDMI devices, they are expensive, but allow strange device combinations to be combined, bypassing or allowing older devices to continue working without upgrading to non-existent or non-existent devices due to DRM Perhaps the reasons and problems of the license, such as DTS audio or eARC, Dolby Vision, HDR, etc., and the TV cannot or cannot obtain these functions.
