What is an HDMI splitter , and why can it really be useful in our homes? Again, technology comes to our aid, with small devices that meet our needs.
The simplest example is that of an audio / video signal source, computer or game console, with a single HDMI input port , but our intention is to create a connection with on several monitors. The HDMI splitter is precisely that device that, through its output ports, is able to carry the same signal from one source to two, or more screens on which to transmit.
Not all HDMI splitters work the same way, in fact on the market you will find a clear division between active HDMI splitters and passive HDMI splitters.
What is the difference? Active HDMI splitters, thanks to being powered, are able to enhance the original signal, in this way all monitors will receive a powerful and non-degraded signal. Passive HDMI splitters instead take the signal and divide it on the different output ports, they are not powered by electricity and therefore do not represent any consumption on the bill, but if they do not have enough energy for all the displays to be powered, they can avoid passing the signal on further screens.
Not all HDMI splitters are therefore suitable for our needs, so in our Oniroview store in via Piave we will explain which could be the best choice for you.
