Most readers can settle for 4K@30Hz – but if you’re planning to split a 4K gaming console like the PS4 Pro, or if you want to split a 4K HDR device at the best quality (like a Blu-ray player), you would do better with a 60Hz Splitter, which lets you play 60 frames per second. That’s because their input side is only connected to one HDMI device, which doesn’t give them enough extra power to function properly.

The splitter then “duplicates” the signal coming from your media device – and sends it to your two outputs. So you can watch the same stream on two TVs, a TV and a projector, and every other example you can think of. That’s where an HDMI splitter comes in – it’s a small box that lets you plug in one “Input” device – that’s your streamer/ DVD Player/etc.’– and connect TWO (or more) screens to the “Output” side, all via HDMI cables. The HDMI splitter from Zettaguard can handle a maximum resolution of 4K at 30Hz and is compatible with Dolby Audio. It accepts video signals from laptops, gaming consoles, and Blu-ray players, making it a versatile device for media enthusiasts. The Kinivo does come with some cable management issues.
