InLine 57886B HDMI 1x4 Video Splitter and Extender Set, 4K/30Hz over Cat.6

The InLine 57886B HDMI 1x4 Video Splitter and Extender Set is a professional-grade solution engineered to distribute a single high-definition HDMI source signal to four separate remote displays simultaneously. By utilizing Cat.6 network cabling, this system ensures stable and reliable signal transmission over extended distances, making it an essential tool for complex audiovisual setups that require consistent image quality across multiple screens.

Advantages

This video splitter and extender set offers significant flexibility for professional installations by allowing the placement of displays far from the source device without compromising signal integrity. The use of standard Cat.6 cabling simplifies the installation process and reduces costs associated with long-distance HDMI cable runs. Furthermore, the support for 4K resolution at 30Hz ensures that visual content remains sharp and detailed, providing a high-quality viewing experience for all connected monitors or projectors.

Suitable for

• Digital signage in retail environments
• Conference room presentation systems
• Large-scale home entertainment setups
• Public information displays in waiting areas

When it may not be suitable

This device is not designed for applications requiring high-refresh-rate gaming or professional video editing where 4K at 60Hz or higher is mandatory. It is also not intended for use with non-standard network cabling, as performance may be degraded if lower-category cables are utilized.

Key specifications

• Input: 1x HDMI
• Output: 4x HDMI via Cat.6 receivers
• Maximum resolution: 4K at 30Hz
• Transmission medium: Cat.6 network cable
• Distribution: 1 source to 4 displays

How to use

To set up the system, connect your HDMI source device to the transmitter unit using a high-quality HDMI cable. Connect each of the four receiver units to your remote displays. Link the transmitter to each receiver using dedicated Cat.6 network cables. Ensure all units are powered using the provided power adapters. Once connected, the system will automatically detect the source signal and distribute it to all four connected displays.

What to consider before purchase

• Ensure you have sufficient Cat.6 cabling for the distance between the transmitter and each receiver.
• Verify that your source device and displays support the 4K/30Hz resolution standard.
• Confirm that your installation environment allows for the placement of power adapters at each display location.

Usage recommendations

For optimal performance and signal stability, always use high-quality, shielded Cat.6 or higher network cables. Avoid running network cables parallel to high-voltage power lines to prevent electromagnetic interference.
