THIS IS A SPLITTER - NOT A SWITCH
By A2X0T8HIOCL0AM on 2006-12-26
Dan J. Holloway "DJ Dan" review below is incorrect. This is splitter cable. You can only connect one input device (i.e. DVD player,cable box or satellite receiver) to two output device(i.e. TV or projector).You can't connect two input device (i.e. DVD player,cable box or satellite receiver) to one output device(i.e. TV or projector)
If you need sopmething to split two input devices you will need to buy an HDMI switch.
Get the facts straight and don't blame a cable for something you did not do the research on!
Snow with 720p/1080i sources and no video on 1080p
By A35Q9GN2CJY52J on 2007-02-19
Not sure if the other reviewer "Nando" actually tried using this particular splitter??
This splitter is useless. You purchase a splitter because you need to send the output to two displays (in my case a TV and a Projector). However, with this splitter, the picture results in some snow when using 480i/480p/720p/1080i sources (such as directv or comcast). And using the splitter results in no video at all with 1080p sources such as PS3 Blu-Ray. Audio output from all sources functioned properly, but without proper video output, this device is non-functional. Solution: I removed the splitter from my configuration (my HDMI cables are not the problem).
I'm searching for another splitter.
Splitter provides great picture, but NO AUDIO
By A2VF38HFPQCLBP on 2007-07-02
Read the description for this splitter very closely and you notice it mentions nothing about audio or audio quality. Very deceptive advertising, as it doesn't outright mention the fact that it provides no audio pass through whatsoever! Buyer Beware.
Problems with splitter and 50 foot HDMI cable
By AHJ8O32LDAQEN on 2007-10-27
I am using this splitter with a 15 and 50 foot cable to two HDMI TVs. The TV on the 15 foot cable works fine, but the one on the 50 foot cable does not have audio. When first plugged in, the audio works fine, but after the TV is turned off and on again, I have no audio. I have ordered an HDMI booster, and will see if this corrects the problem.

This item is useless, do not BUY. I tried to use it to split between my projector and TV. It worked with one output (TV or Projector) connected but it was full of snow, as soon as I connected the second output the picture dies out. It only does up to 720P, 1080P kills it. Don't waist your money!
- Item is a waste of money
By A1R0PC9KXS73LM on 2006-12-19
The splitter can only accept 1 video source at a time so if you need to operate a different hdmi source you have to plug it in and unplug the other. There is almost no use at all for this item.
- Worthless
By A2G5E3Z0FQH9OQ on 2008-03-19
Plainly, this doesn't work. I wanted to split the signal from a TiVo to 2 screens. When this splitter was used, I received picture, but no sound. Also, the picture was poor quality with snow on BOTH screens.
What is needed is a powered/amplified HDMI splitter. I purchased one of these and it works just fine.
Don't waste your money on a easy quick fix..... I did, learn from me.
- HDMI passive Splitters are a waste...
By ABYSLHM1EBXZ1 on 2007-05-06
This item is useless, i got it thinking i would be able to connect my hdmi cable box and my hdmi upscaling dvd player, but neither work when they are both connected picture/sound flashes, they drown out each others signal even if the other device is powered off, like the signal is leaking backwords. The only way it works is if you have only 1 device plugged in to it, so that makes it pretty useless, unless you needed a 12inch hdmi extender...... I would of sent it back but it was so cheap it wasnt worth the time and effort.
Complete junk do not waste your time, get an active switch if you need more HDMI ports
- P.O.S. !!!!
By ABHH7CUL1DG38 on 2008-02-28
This is completely a waste of 20$ Terrible quality! probably made with heavy amounts of lead because the cord itself is heavy. Fuzz with 2 displays on. Still not as sharp with one display on. Did not work with my Panasonic 42" 720p plasma. I would of felt better if it was dead on arival.
- this sucks
By A3EXVE97UE5ALV on 2008-05-20
yeah it does have clear picture but it amazon fails to tell us that theres no audio .. ready to return
- This thing is great, just what I needed.
By A2ZNWKZ1QH9G7D on 2008-08-19
This works exactly as advertised and I highly recommend it. I have two OUTPUT devices, a projector and a plasma TV. I want the signal from my HDMI switching receiver to go to BOTH. I plug this splitter in and then each device into it and now have the same exact high quality HD signal on both displays. I have tried more expensive splitters on eBay that require a power supply and they don't work as well as this. Kudos Cables Unlimited and Amazon.com. Great Product!!! I have no idea what everyone is complaining about.
- Does Not Work
By A1J6KUHFKY72GO on 2008-02-27
Have two HDMI cables. One 8 feet and the other at 25 feet. The 8 foot cable worked sometimes, but with snow on the screen. The 25 foot cable was unable to show a picture.
- junk did not work most of the time
By A398UGXD47N3MR on 2008-05-21
I would not recommend anyone waste your money on this product it doesn't work most of the time.
- Does not work as expected
By A11JVBV4AGU9KR on 2008-07-27
I tried to use this product with a PS3 by splitting the signal coming out of the PS3 and sending it to two different TVs. When hooked up in this configuration, the video and audio is choppy on both TVs. With only a single TV connected, the sound and audio is transmitted without the signal breaks so I am sure the cable is fine. Basically this "splitter" is not really a splitter at all. I do not recommend this product. But if you insist on purchasing one, I have one I will sell for cheap . . .
- Does not work
By AD1WULCD8EOUT on 2008-08-11
Amazon needs to stop carrying this item entirely. I wish I had read the rest of the reviews. I am simply connected two TV's with 6' HDMI cables to a cable box. When only one TV is connected it works fine. As soon as you try to have both connected the signal is too weak and neither TV has picture or audio. I will look for a splitter that is also a signal amplifier or at least has good reviews.
- Garbage
By A2CFMDBKOFG5V3 on 2008-08-12
What a piece of trash. I couldn't get anything to work after installing this thing. I hooked up a 6 ft hdmi and a 12 ft hdmi and turned them on. NOTHING!
At first I got some audio but that quit when I tried to change inputs. Then it was just black and silent I wish I had red the reviews before I bought this trash. If it had been more expensive I would be screaming at Amazon. I didn't think they sold this kind of garbage and wish they would quit. I no longer trust them.
- Dissapointing - Not recommended
By AZW7MAK0UHSY on 2008-09-20
I bought this item to split the HDMI output from my Sony AVR to two TVs. One was a Samsung 17" LCD and the other my main Samsung 50" DLP. The signal was inconsistent and I experienced intermittent output to both screens. I returned the item after a few days and received full credit from Amazon. I have since purchased the Accell UltraAV K078C-001B 1x2 HDMI Splitter (also from Amazon) and have had no problems.
- Does not work!
By A2VPLLSO59JUSR on 2008-09-28
I read all the bad reviews, but ordered this splitter anyway. I was hoping all these people would be wrong, unfortunately they are not, the product does not work. Even after following the exact directions, it will not pass the signal to two TVs. When two TV are connected, I get an error message that says that my TV is not HDCP compliant ( they both are). If only one of the two is connected then they will work, but not at the same time, or even if one of them is turned off. Do not waste your time!!! I think I will get a HDMI Switch and use it backwards and see what happens.
- HDMI Splitter
By A38HED3CKSU3PT on 2008-10-12
Item does work however you are forced to use both displays simultaneously. If this is your goal then this is the product for you. If you want to have the ability to use the displays individually from the same source, you won't be able to. You simply must have both units on to get an image on either screen. A bargain if this is what you want.
- Does not provide audio
By A15UJQ471739PI on 2008-10-18
I ordered this splitter to allow me to run two TVs off of the same DirecTV receiver. I am able to get a video signal on both TVs, but no audio if I have both TVs connected to the splitter. After experiencing this problem with two separate devices (I returned the first to Amazon), I read the product description on Amazon more closely. It refers several times to the ability to split a video signal. Could it really be that this is only intended to transmit video through the HDMI? That's ridiculous if that is the case.
