This HDMI splitter simultaneously distributes the image and sound of an HDMI source (such as a Blu-ray player. PS4) to two display units (such as a UHD TV or a projector). The splitter is compatible with HDMI 2.0 and supports formats up to 4k with 50 or 60 Hz as well as the copy protection standard HDCP 2.2. It is also downwardly compatible with smaller formats such as 1080p. The splitter recognises the connected display units and automatically selects the optimum playback format thanks to the EDID engine.
