Customer Reviews

Works great with PS3
I have three HDMI ports on the TV but four devices. I have a Samsung 1080P DLP with 5.1 surround. After reviewing and looking at all the switches I decided give this IOGear switch a try based on price. I have a PS3 and a Roku box sharing the device and it works perfect. The PS3 games and Blu Ray look and sound exactly the same. The Roku box streaming HD looks great. The 5.1 Dolby sounds awesome on both devices. Plus I now have an extra HDMI port. The switch is about the size of a deck of cards and to install I just plugged in the devices, connected the box to the TV and the switch was in place and working in just a minute or two. It requires no external power source. The only negative is that the green LED lights for power and HDMI source are to bright. When watching a good Blu Ray with the lights off I hide the LEDs with a remote.

Basic, simple, gets the job done.
I picked up this 3-port HDMI switch when I ran out of HDMI ports on my AVR. It has allowed me to turn one of my AVR's HDMI ports into three. It is simple, to the point, and gets the job done. It works either passive or powered, but keep in mind that when being used passively (no external power) that at least one HDMI device must be powered on to provide power over the HDMI bus. This is usually not a major concern, but might need to be taken into account if programming macros or activities on an advanced universal remote (Harmony, URC, etc). Also, no DC power supply is included, so you'll need to add one if you require active switching. One other handy feature is the switch's 3.5mm wired IR input, allowing it to be tucked out of site and another device (like an AVR) to be used to pass IR signals to it.

Audio and video quality seem to be passed with no degradation in quality by the switch. I'm using short cables (3') from sources to an AVR before passing through an AVR which again repeats/amplifies the signal, so I have not tested this switch at the beginning or end of a long cable chain without an active repeater.

Great Product!!!
I purchase my LCD TV for my bedroom(32")but found I had a problem--Only 1 HDMI input,so after reading the reviews I took a chance and order this switch.Hookup was easy-my Directv HD receiver and my upconvert dvd works like a charm.If you need the extra inputs I say BUY-IT.
