2X1 Mini HDMI® Switch w/ Optional Power Input
When all you need is a simple switch to choose between two input source devices, you will be hard pressed to find a better solution than the Monoprice 2x1 Mini HDMI® Switch!
Note that this switch has regular HDMI Connectors. The "mini" in the title and description refer to the size of the switch, not the type of connectors it uses.
This small switch automatically switches between two input devices, depending upon which one is turned on. It is powered by the HDMI source, so no external power supply is required (though one can optionally be used if one of the devices has a weak signal output strength).
The switch handles High Speed (1080p) signals with High Definition audio and 12-bit per channel Color Depth. A manual switching option is available via a button on the top of the unit, in case you don't want to turn off the unused source or your source continues to power the HDMI cable when in standby mode.
Note: Monoprice strongly recommends the use of minimum 24 AWG HDMI cables when connecting a device, such as this switch, between the source and destination devices to ensure minimal signal loss and maximum High Speed signal reliability.

| | HDMI Switch works great |  Pros: Device works as intended, small, easy to conceal, low cost.
Cons: You may run into low power, or no power HDMI ports, this would require the device to be powered and manually switch between the two inputs. If your devices don't put out enough power it might be wise to get the powered version of the 2x1 HDMI Splitter. Other than that the unit works flawlessly.
This item works great, we have many customers that have small televisions that are limited to one input. The 2X1 HDMI splitter allows us to put 2 devices on the same small TV with a hassle free input. The fact that it automatically switches between the two devices when one is powered down and the other is powered up, makes this easier to use for our more technically challenged clientele. Note: Some low voltage HDMI devices may not trigger the HDMI splitter, for these devices you should get the powered version of the 2x1 HDMI splitter.

| | HDMI Switcher | Pros: Does as intended
Cons: None
I have an old Panasonic plasma with only 1 HDMI input. I have A PS3 and direct tv mini genie that only outputs HDMI so I had to manually switch back and forth between the two until this switcher, which automatically detects which input is live. Works great no problems. I did have to purchase the a/c power adapter 5v 1amp to plug into the switcher as the mini genie doesnt output enough power to send signal from it to the switcher to the tv.

| | HDMI Switcher | Pros: Works great
Cons: None
This was the perfect solution to my panasonic plasma with only 1 hdmi input. I have a direct tv mini genie and ps3 that only output hdmi so I needed something that allows me to use both without unplugging 1 device and plugging it in the other..this was the way to go and with automatic switching, I also had no issues with the mini genie outputting picture thru the switcher to the tv as Ive read in some posts on the web

| | Somewhat surprised | Pros: Small form factor and automatic switch sensory
Cons: Slightly awkward placement of input/output ports.
Worked exactly as advertised. Not only able to support two game consoles but will auto sense a signal from each system.

| | Highly Recommended | Pros: Small, lightweight, didn't require power. Inexpensive. Works exactly as designed.
Cons: None so far.
I bought two of the 2x1 HDMI mini switches and they couldn't work more perfectly. Small, lightweight, didn't require power. Switching between my PS4 and gaming PC happens automatically, requiring no intervention on my part. Signal quality is great with no discernible degradation in output.
