ATEN VS184A 4 Port HDMI Splitter Support 4K
Overview
The ATEN VS184A is a 4-port HDMI splitter designed to duplicate a single HDMI source signal to four separate outputs. This device is crucial for digital signage, presentations, and video distribution setups where consistent, high-resolution video needs to be displayed on multiple monitors simultaneously. The VS184A supports up to 4K resolution, ensuring clarity for detailed content. Its rack-mountable form factor makes it suitable for integration into standard 19-inch server racks, ideal for AV closets or control rooms.
Compatibility
This HDMI splitter is compatible with any HDMI source device outputting a standard HDMI signal. It supports HDMI Type A outputs from devices such as PCs, media players, and surveillance DVRs/NVRs. It is designed to work with displays (monitors, projectors, TVs) that support the specified resolutions and refresh rates.
Installation Notes
The VS184A supports a maximum signal distance of 3 meters at 3840x2160@30Hz with 4:4:4 color sampling. For higher resolutions like 3840x2160@60Hz, a 4:2:0 color sampling is required, and the distance limitation still applies. Ensure that the total cable length from the source to the splitter, and from the splitter to each display, does not exceed this 3-meter limit per output to maintain signal integrity. The unit requires a 1x DC Jack power input. Operating humidity is between 0-80% RH, non-condensing.
