HDMI Splitter - Ensures Transmission of Video to Multiple Video Displays Simultaneously

A HDMI Splitter is used to relay high definition multi media interface video signals to two or more display devices simultaneously over a distance of 15 meters. By daisy chaining two or more such amplifiers, a larger distribution and longer length can be created. Supporting DVD players, satellite set top boxes and all HDMI displays; this device is also called a signal booster or splitter because it takes a single HDMI source and splits it into two or more HDMI feeds. These devices are HDMI and HDCP compliant hence maintain high resolution video. Since HDCP is a standard key encoded into the HDMI signal preventing video data from being pirated, the displayed image is crisp and clear.

Working on plug and play technology, this distribution amplifier can be installed in seconds. It is configured such that the digital source connects to it on one side and HDMI outputs on the other. HDMI cables are used to secure the connections. Once the unit is connected and powered; video signals are relayed to all connected digital displays simultaneously. VGA resolutions of 640x480, 800x600, 1024x768, 1920x1200 and HDTV resolutions of 480i/576i/480p/576p/720p/1080i/1080P are supported by these amplifiers operating at a frequency of 165 MHz.

HDMI integrates all video and sound signals onto a single, thin cable that makes it very easy to connect components while avoiding the standard clutter associated with bulky VGA and Audio cables. The HDCP compliant latest Version 1.3 HDMI Splitter or HDMI Distribution Amplifier units are ideal for digital signage applications. There is a wide range of 2, 4, 8, 2x2, and 4x4 HDMI splitters and HDMI Matrix units available in the market today. The HDMI Matrix unit is a combination of a HDMI splitter and an HDMI switch. Control is done thru push buttons on the unit or RS232, but optional methods include IR and TCP/IP control.

HDMI was developed with the intention of replacing DVI as the latter did not support audio. HDMI connections, combined with a pristine source and a great display, can produce beautiful images. If a user owns plasma TV and a projector the two can be connected using a HDMI Distribution Amplifier to create a home theater set up.
