Two-Port Bi-Directional HDMI Switch

This compact switch routes HDMI signals in either direction. Connect two source devices to one display, or one source to two displays. A single button toggles the active path and an LED indicates the selection. No external power supply is required for operation.

Bandwidth and Cable Limits

The switch passes up to 10.2 Gbps of data. Standard AWG26 HDMI cables up to 5 metres are supported on both input and output sides. To achieve 4K resolution, HDMI 2.0 cables must be used throughout the chain; HDMI 1.4 cables will not carry the full signal.

Resolution Headroom and Display Constraints

Maximum supported resolution is 4096 x 2160 at 30 Hz, alongside 1080p and 3D formats. Only one output displays content at a time; the two connected screens cannot show video simultaneously. HD audio formats pass through without degradation.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 2-port 4K 30 Hz model or a different capacity?

This is the only capacity offered — a single 2-port bi-directional switch that handles 4K at 30 Hz.

What does the 4K 30 Hz rating mean when I connect my console?

You can run 4096 × 2160 resolution at 30 Hz with full HD audio; 1080p and 3D content run at their native rates.

Which HDMI standard does the 10.2 Gbps link cap me to in practice?

The 10.2 Gbps bandwidth limits you to HDMI 1.4-class signals — 4K at 30 Hz — so use HDMI 2.0 cables for best reliability.
