Congratulations on your purchase of the ex•tend•it HDTV Splitter. Your complete satis-
faction is very important to us.
Gefen’s line of HDTV switches, extenders, and splitters are designed to make yourA/V
equipment use more comfortable, more productive and less expensive.
Gefen’s ex•tend•it HDTV Splitter is a distribution hub that sends the same video output
to two or more HDTV digital screens. It is a flexible solution that accommodates multiple
displays. When two or more HDTV Splitters are connected together, they can be used
to create a larger distribution.
The HDTV Splitter is connected using a HDMI cable from the HDMI source to the HDTV
Splitter input. There are two DVI outputs. Output 1 is the primary connection and is used
for the main display. Output 2 follows the main display.
The HDTV Splitter is HDCP compliant.
The ex•tend•it line offers solutions for noise, space and security concerns, data center
control, information distribution, conference room presentation, school and corporate
training environments.
Our Commitment
Gefen will always offer the finest quality product at the best possible price. Included in
that price is a lifetime of support from a team of outstanding engineers.
