Two-Source HDMI 2.1 Switch for Gaming

This SMUGDESK switch routes two HDMI 2.1 sources to a single display, supporting 48Gbps bandwidth for 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz. It is built for users with a PS5, Xbox, TV box or similar consoles who need to share one HDMI port on their TV or projector. The directional 2×1 design prevents reverse splitting and focuses purely on source selection.

Front-Panel Button Switching

Installation requires only connecting the two source devices and the display; the unit draws power from the HDMI bus so no external adapter or driver is needed. A single press of the front button toggles the active input and the LED confirms which source is live. Gold-plated ports reduce signal loss, but the switch cannot split one source to two screens and has no IR remote for distant control.

Verify Source and Display Compatibility Before

Ensure both source devices output HDMI 2.1 signals up to 48Gbps if you need 8K60 or 4K120 performance, and that your display accepts those resolutions and refresh rates. The switch passes HDCP2.3, Dolby Vision, HDR10, HLG and Dolby Atmos, so protected Blu-ray and streaming content will play correctly. Confirm your cables are rated for the required bandwidth to avoid handshake issues.

Questions about this item

How do I confirm the switch is passing 8K at 60 Hz to my display after connecting two sources?

Press the front button to select an input; the LED lights for the active channel and the TV should show an 8K 60 Hz signal with HDR.

What cables or power adapters are included versus what I must provide?

The unit is bus-powered so no power adapter is needed; you supply three HDMI 2.1 cables — two from sources and one to the display.

Should I choose this 2×1 directional model or look for a bidirectional version?

Pick this model only if you need two sources into one screen; it cannot send one source to two displays.
