Everyone reviewing this splitter is using it to send 2 inputs to 1 output. I want to do the opposite - 1 input into 2 outputs. Will it work for me?

I use this for one signal coming from my receiver that gets spilt and goes to 2 different subwoofer amps. Hope that helps

I got this to do the same and it appears that it did not work for ME going from my 2012 Mitsubishi 92" DLP 3D R.P big-screen Digital Coaxial to RCA (Red,White output ) inputing it to my new Samsung Home Theater system 3D-Blue-ray and I still got no sound.... My next try is the Digital coaxial converter to Optical input on the Home Theater, I hope this helps you. I wish us both luck.. Greg

I don't see y not. I used the box for 6 outputs and one input. it all worked backward very well. all of mine was audio. out was in and in was out.

yes, that's exactly what the switch does, it takes an input signal and allows you to direct it to two different destinations, not simultaneously tough (it's not a splitter). I guess your plan is to bypass the AV receiver when you don't need it and watch TV via the direct connection, and go through the AV receiver only when you need the additional capabilities. One push of the button and you will toggle the signal between the two output.

No I don't think it works that way. You need two outs from your switch/router to go to the two inputs, then you need 2 coupling for the RJ45 that will run in the middle and connect the two. The only advantage of using this is that you don't have to run two cable just one.

You need a HDMI switch to do multiple in to one out. The splitter just amplifies the input signal and sends it out to two ports. It doesn't separate the signals like a switch does.

Yes it's a switch not splitter so only 1 source will go through at a time and it shouldn't matter if both are on.

The problem with this splitter is that both have to be used at the same time and it is very important that they are initialized in the proper sequence and stay on continuously. It sounds to me this would not be the solution to your problem. Hope this helps!

This is designed to take a signal that is on one input and take that exact signal and put it out to another input. It is not designed to take the signal and split it up into multiple different segments and broadcast only 1/3 or 1/4 of that signal to the other outputs. In other words, it will only broadcast 100% of the input through each of the out puts. I hope this helps!

It only works on one channel at a time. So it would not work for 2 inputs at once.

Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, it can split one input soruce to two display. Hope this information can help you.

no. this splitter starts at one source and goes to two different tvs. not one tv to two different sources. sorry. i will say that product is out there. make sure you have good hdmi cables.

I recommend you don't do this if the two inputs are used at the same time. This will cause a degradation of the sound from both of them due to patial signal cancellation. To do this, you need a combiner such as a Pro AV2. However, this device uses 1/4" inputs to a single 1/4" out but it properly combines the two signals. "Y" connectors such as the one you've asked about are designed as splitters; not combiners.

It's been recommended to me to use a "y" splitter to run the single out to both inputs.

Nope. But if you got clever with mixing in a 2 to 1 splitter on the input side you should be able to accomplish the same thing. I say clever because the input is 1/4 and obviously what you plug in will be 1/8. You will also lose the stereo since the output is only mono. Still may be worth it since this sucker is pretty good at amping up and is affordable and durable.

You'd probably be better off buying a signal splitter than this switch. This device shares more properties with a USB hub where in you take one input, and turn it into several different ones. It only detects/uses one signal at a time, a splitter would probably increase the amount of TV's you could also hook up (to display the same image) in the future.

Not really sure as it is made for 2 inputs and 1 output each, not the other way around.Daisy chaining them to another switcher could do 4 inputs and 2 outputs, if that's what you mean..

To my knowledge(and what I have used this product for) it is one input which it duplicates into two outputs... so I don't think that will work. There is always the off chance that it might. Keep asking around, but I would put my money on an 85% it works the way I said. Sorry.
