Q: 1. does the signal hold on an inactive port? meaning if I have a computer connected to input 1, and I switch to input 2, does the computer on input 1 think that it has lost the connection?

A: We are not sure of the process but we know that you do not lose the signal and that you can switch back and forth at any time.

Q: 2. Does this switch automatically between sources?

A: Yes and no. If you have both devices running at the same time and turn one off it will not automatically switch. However if you have one on, say a blue ray and turn it off then turn on the second device, say a gaming console it will recognize that your blue ray is off and automatically switch to your gaming console. It also comes with a remote that can manually switch between the three inputs as well.

Q: 9. I want to use this to switch 2 different PC's into 1 monitor. One PC has HDMI out. The other has Display port to HDMI cable, which I now plug into my monitor, and works. will I have any problems when I plug this DP to HDMI into this switch?

A: Because the PC signal through your cable does power your monitor, it should flow through the ports of the 3X1 switch to your monitor in the same fashion. A Switch has one output with multiple inputs and typically does not need external power. Conversely, a Splitter has multiple outputs and typically does require external power.
