How to connect multiple HDMI devices to an HDTV Old

The first HDTV tend to have only 1 or 2 HDMI ports, which poses one of the first in a slightly uncomfortable position today, as there are so many HDMI devices to be connected, but so few HDMI ports available.

To connect multiple HDMI devices to your HDTV in a way, of course, is to move to a new HDTV today usually has four or more HDMI ports, but also leads to much lighter weight your portfolio.

A better way is to use an HDMI switch that lets you connect multiple HDMI devices to your HDTV via a single HDMI port.

 

What is an HDMI switch, and what to do?

HDMI switching (aka HDMI Switcher, HDMI switch) receives signals from multiple sources and HDMI HDMI sends signals to your HDTV, occupying only one HDMI. It acts as an agent to accept many HDMI signals for HDTV, even if your HDTV has only 1 or 2 HDMI ports (s).

With an HDMI switch, you can connect multiple HD sources to your HDTV, such as:

 

See how easy it works

There are 3 doors, 4-door and 5-Port HDMI Switch with rare and more. those are the most common practice and (because of mass production) 3-port HDMI switch.

On a switch with 3 HDMI ports, there are four HDMI ports: three input ports for receiving signals from three HDMI sources, an output port and send signals to your HDTV. There is usually an LED light on both sides of entry to indicate the selected source.

An HDMI switch allows automatic switching generally, and allows you to override and manually select the source, some have advanced HDMI switch remote to HDMI switching much easier.

 

Automatic HDMI Switching

HDMI switch and should have an automatic switching function.

Every time you turn on a HDMI source, the HDMI switch will automatically select the source. If you decide to activate another HDMI switch to this second source. If you put on another, go to the third device.

In most cases, it is smart enough to understand and take care of most if not all your switching needs.

 

Manual HDMI switching

The above function with automatic switching does not always work when there are one or more HDMI sources “always on” like a box recorder or HDTV satellite network, which has no doubt that often and, therefore, always background.

In this case, you must manually select the desired HDMI source.

HDMI switch with manual mode have generally prevalent a button, allowing you to manually by pressing the desired source HD.

For example, if the switch is present in an entry, you press the button once will allow you to choose input 2, press to allow you to input 3.

 

HDMI switch with remote

A remote control will be much more convenient when you can simply relax on your couch, and select all entries by pressing the remote, instead of going to the switch and press a button on it.
