The 1:4 HD Splitter splits one high definition video signal and distributes it to up to four high definition displays at the same time. It enhances home theater and other high definition video environments by allowing one incoming source signal to be viewed on multiple displays at the same time.

Sharp and highly defined video is supported in multiple resolutions up to 1080p. The 1:4 HD Splitter works with satellite set-top boxes, HD DVD players, D-VHS players and other HDTV devices equipped with DVI output as well as high definition televisions and displays equipped with a DVI input. To use with HDMI (high definition multimedia interface) sources or displays, Gefen supplies DVI to HDMI Cables and Adapters. The 1:4 HD Splitter used with HDMI sources or displays will NOT support audio.

How it works

The 1:4 HD Splitter is a distribution hub that sends the same video to up to four high definition televisions. You simply connect your source to the 1:4 HD Splitter's input using the supplied cable. Up to four high definition displays are connected to the Splitter's outputs. DVI output 1 is the primary connection and is used for the main display. DVI outputs 2, 3 and 4 follow the main display.

HDCP (high bandwidth digital content protection) is a standard encoded into the video signal to prevent it from being pirated. Unless a source, display and any equipment in between are HDCP compliant, the picture is very often relegated to "snow" or a very low resolution, destroying the high definition imagery.

The 1:4 HD Splitter will "ONLY" support digital video signals. We suggest you use the 1:2 HDMI Splitter or 1:4 HD Digital Audio Splitter to distribute digital video and audio.

Note: The 1:4 HD Splitter is HDCP compliant.
