About this deal
Then, with one cable, you connect the “out” side of the switcher to your TV’s available HDMI port – and voila – you have three devices connected to the same port on your TV. Then, you connect all your other HDMI-based devices to the switcher itself, and by pressing a button (or using a remote, on some switchers), you can switch between the devices without connecting and disconnecting their cables over and over again.
While switching between three devices is enough for some – these days, needing to switch between 5 different HDMI devices isn’t that far-fetched. First, you need to make sure your HDMI Switcher supports 4K and HDR (as do the PS4 Pro, PS5 and XBOX Series X). In my personal testing, the Belfen 4K HDMI Switcher worked flawlessly with both the PS4 Pro and the PS5, and I’m assuming the two top ones will manage it as well – but you won’t know for sure until you try, unfortunately. But other than that, the modern Playstations are very fussy about the switchers (and even HDMI cables) they “agree” to work with.Use as short a splitter cable as possible, and consider moving furniture around to shorten it further – e. The HDMI switcher offers audio and video signal transmission without loss of 18Gbps with high bandwidth.

You may want to use a television as a second computer monitor but, while the HDMI splitter will make a connection between the computer and the two screens, the computer itself may need additional software to recognise two different monitors through one input.
Splitter mode: You can connect the Sky Q TV Box/TV Stick/PS5 Game Console to your TVs in living or bedroom to share two monitors.
