Tripp Lite’s B118-008E-UHD-2 splitter takes an audio/video signal from a single HDMI source, like a Blu-ray player, media console or laptop, and sends it to eight separate HDMI monitors. It supports true 4K resolutions (4096 x 2160 at 60 Hz), so the picture quality will never be compromised.
Typical Applications
Not only does this splitter support true 4K resolutions, but it also supports the latest audio formats, including DTS-HD, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and LPCM 7.1-channel surround sound. It features 36-bit Deep Color, xvYCC and x.vColor and is capable of transmitting up to 18 Gbps of bandwidth with no loss of data. For compatibility with the latest hardware, it’s compliant with HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2 and 3D standards.
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a metadata format that allows monitors, projectors and TVs to automatically send information about their capabilities to a video source. This, in turn, allows the source to transmit the highest quality video and audio signal. The B118-008E-UHD-2 features a built-in DIP switch that lets you override the automatic detection to set and control the A/V output yourself.
With no software or drivers required, the B118-008E-UHD-2 is completely plug and play. Simply connect your source and displays to the splitter using HDMI cables (such as Tripp Lite’s P568-Series, sold separately), then plug the included power supply into an AC outlet. An array of LEDs will illuminate to let you know the splitter is receiving power and your displays are connected. Use the included hardware to mount the unit to a desktop or wall.
