UGREEN 40201 HDMI 2.0 1 In 2 Out Splitter

In-depth Details:

1. HDMI Version and Resolution Support:

   • The UGREEN 40201 supports HDMI 2.0, which allows for high-bandwidth digital video and audio transmission.

   • It supports resolutions up to 4K (3840x2160) at 60Hz, ensuring compatibility with modern high-definition displays.

   • It is also backward compatible with 1080p, 720p, and lower resolutions, making it suitable for both legacy and current devices.

2. Splitter Functionality:

   • The device is a 1x2 HDMI splitter, which means it takes one HDMI source (like a laptop, console, Blu-ray player, or streaming box) and duplicates the signal to two HDMI outputs simultaneously.

   • Both connected displays show the same image; it does not support dual independent display (not a switch or matrix device).

3. HDR and HDCP Compliance:

   • Supports HDR10 for better contrast and color depth when used with HDR-capable content and displays.

   • HDCP 2.2 compliance allows it to pass encrypted signals from devices like Netflix-capable streaming boxes or Blu-ray players, ensuring compatibility with premium content sources.

4. Audio Formats:

   • Passes through high-definition audio formats, including Dolby Digital, DTS-HD, Dolby TrueHD, and PCM 7.1.

   • Ideal for use with home theater systems requiring multi-channel audio.

5. Build and Design:

   • Housed in a sturdy aluminum alloy shell, offering better heat dissipation and long-term durability.

   • Compact and portable design with clear labeling for input and output ports.

   • Gold-plated HDMI connectors for corrosion resistance and optimal signal transfer.

6. Power Supply:

   • Requires external power (usually via the included USB cable or a USB power adapter).

   • A 5V DC micro USB power port ensures stable operation, particularly when dealing with high-resolution content.

7. Plug-and-Play:

   • No software installation or configuration is required.

   • Connect the HDMI source, power the unit, and plug in the displays — it works automatically.

8. Use Cases:

   • Ideal for use in classrooms, home theaters, trade shows, or retail displays where the same content needs to be shown on two screens.

   • Also useful for content creators or gamers looking to mirror their gameplay or media output on a second display or recording device.

Compatibility Notes:

• Best used with displays of similar specifications; resolution will default to the lowest common denominator of the connected monitors.

• Not designed for HDMI switching or sending different sources to different displays.
