Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Is there a limit for input cable length? I need to plug in a 25' cable as an input. A previous switch I tried could not accommodate this. Apparently there was too much signal loss.
A: This device does not have a cable length limit. Your results will vary depending on what brand cable you are using and if you use any signal boosting/extending equipment with it. For instance, You mentioned that you attempted to plug a 25ft HDMI cable into a device and it resulted in signal loss but It might work if you attempt to use a different cable such as one made by Kramer or Comprehensive. Another solution may be adding a signal booster like the StarTech HDBOOST4K HDMI 4K Signal Booster (114.8'). There are other solutions as well such as extending over cat-6 cable, fiber, or BNC cables which all perform much better over long distances. Ultimately the solution to your problem lies in how the signal is sent to the switcher not in the switcher itself.
Q: 2. Can the output of this device be locked into Standard Definition? (SD-SDI)
A: Sorry but i dont know
Q: 3. Can I use the Comprehensive HDMI Type-A to VGA Converter with Audio to connect a Blu-Ray HDMI output to VGA input on a projector? Does it provide the appropriate HDCP feedback to the Blu-Ray player so that it will transmit the HDMI signal?
A: This converter is designed to allow you to connect products with an HDMI output to legacy projectors and monitors that have a VGA input only. Also it is HDCP Compliant, this should work for your needs.
Q: 4. Will this switch allow my desktop to connect to a video projector (HDMI) and a VGA monitor to see the same images on both at the same time? I also have a VGA monitor, so these other two are for the extended screen, not my main screen.
A: I have been using this switch in one of our conference rooms for almost a year. It has worked flawlessly. Our laptops have both VGA and Displayport outputs. We use a passive cable to convert Displayport to HDMI, the HDMI then goes into the switch. If we need to use the VGA output of the laptop, we connect it to the switch. The switch does the conversion to HDMI. That way we only have to feed our monitor with HDMI. We run a single HDMI to the monitor. If you want to share the HDMI output of a laptop with an HDMI projector and an HDMI monitor, you would need to use an HDMI splitter. To use an HDMI projector, and a VGA monitor, you can use an HDMI to VGA adapter. I hope this answers your question.
Q: 5. What size is the berrol connector for the DC power in? I know its 5-18 volts with center positive. But what is the spec on the jack/plug size?
A: Outer diameter is 5.5 mm and inner diameter is 2.1 mm
Q: 6. Can I use this device to connect my Dell Inspiron 5302 desktop (Windows 8.1), which has no HDMI port, to my HDTV (which is at least 7 years old)?Will it also require an HDMI cable?
A: Yes
Q: 7. Does this auto-switch based on active inputs?
A: It does not. This is not an Auto Switch.
Q: 8. Can I disable automatically switches between two HDMI function?
A: The StarTech 2x1 2-Port 4K HDMI Switch can be set to automatic or you can manually switch.
Q: 9. Can I use this device to connect a VGA output from a laptop into a HDMI to input into a video Switcher?
A: No. You'll likely need male VGA to HDMI. This unit is female VGA to HDMI.
Q: 10. Will this allow me to connect a MacBook Air (11-inch, Early 2014) with Thunderbolt 2 port to a HDMI input TV??
A: Yes, the StarTech Mini DisplayPort 1.2 to HDMI 4K Audio/Video Converter (Black) BH #STMDP2HD4KS would allow you to connect a Macbook Air 11'' 2014 to a TV via HDMI. You would also need an HDMI cable.
