Product Description
A simple coupler that joins two HDMI leads or turns a male HDMI tail into a female connection. It has two female HDMI ports back to back, so you push both cable ends into it — no tools, no setup.
What it's for
Extending an HDMI run when your existing cable falls short, or adapting a male HDMI plug to a female panel or bulkhead connection. It works with monitors, displays, laptops, PCs, TVs, and PS4/PS3 consoles.
Key specs
- Built on HDMI 2.1, supporting 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120/144Hz
- Carries audio and data alongside video through the same connection
- Shell is engineering plastic with metal internal contact points for a stable connection
Before you buy
Signal quality depends on the two cables either side of this coupler — a worn or poor-quality lead will limit what you get, whatever the coupler supports. It's a passive connector, not an active repeater, so it won't boost a weak signal or extend range beyond what your existing cables can carry. Keep it away from damp or high-heat spots and don't put strain on the joint by pulling the cables during use.
Handy for CCTV installers extending a monitor feed from a DVR or NVR to a nearby display without swapping the whole cable run.
