Four in one
Distributing a single HDMI video signal to several playback or recording devices at the same time requires more than a simple cable, as the signal has to be actively split by an electronic device. The Swissonic HDMI Split 4K 1in4 is designed with precisely this purpose in mind, receiving the signal from an A/V source such as a camera or video mixer and distributing it to four separate HDMI outputs. Powered by the included mains adaptor, the splitter passes the signal on to monitors or capture cards without any loss of quality, making it a straightforward solution for multi-device setups. The unit supports the HDMI 1.4 standard and resolutions of up to 2160p30, corresponding to 4K video at a frame rate of 30 frames per second.
Connected in a heartbeat
With the HDMI input positioned on the side of the Swissonic HDMI Split 4K 1in4 and the four outputs located on the rear, the layout makes it easy to keep the connections organised and avoid confusing the source and destination sides. Once the cables are connected, the status LEDs on the front provide a clear overview of which outputs are currently carrying a signal. For users looking a little more closely at the technical specifications, the splitter also supports 3D video, Deep Colour, and signals with a colour depth of up to 12 bit. On the audio side, it is capable of transmitting DSD audio, as used for example by Super Audio CD, as well as HBR (High Bitrate Audio).
Multiple destinations, identical signal
With its straightforward design and attractive price point, the Swissonic HDMI Split 4K 1in4 is a practical choice whenever a single HDMI signal needs to be distributed to several devices. Live streamers, for example, can use it to send the multiview output of a video mixer to multiple displays, while VJs can take advantage of its compact format to control several screens at the same time. Despite its compact construction, the splitter is built with everyday use in mind, featuring a robust plastic base and cover around a metal core. This combination also makes it well suited to regular transport in a tour case, where equipment needs to cope with being moved from one location to the next.
About Swissonic
Launched in 1998, Swissonic is an in-house brand operated by Thomann. Swissonic's range of electronic and digital devices are built to precise specifications by well-known manufacturers and are thus available at very favourable prices via direct marketing without distributors. Swissonic mainly focuses on devices for use in conjunction with a computer. The product range therefore includes interfaces, webcams, monitoring speakers, MIDI keyboards, and routers but also sound converters and rack-mounted electronic equipment. Swissonic thus provides an extensive wide range of affordable equipment for computer and home studio-based sound processing.
For a wealth of applications
The Swissonic HDMI Split 4K 1in4 can be used in a wide range of situations where the same HDMI source needs to be displayed on several screens at once. In a sports bar, for example, a satellite receiver can feed a live sporting event to multiple displays throughout the customer area, while in a meeting or conference room, a presentation from a laptop can be shown simultaneously on several TV sets. During a studio live stream, the programme feed can likewise be distributed to different locations, such as displays intended for the audience and production crew. In a live music setting, the splitter can also be used to send artistic visuals from a central source to several screens, allowing the same content to be presented consistently across the venue.
