How far will this transmit the signal? Looking to run three lines to a TV and two projectors of between 125-150' each.

BEST ANSWER: Eric, to expand on my early answer, I did not run HDMI cable the entire distance to the 3 TV's. Ran from splitter to HDMI Extender with Cat6 cable then back to HDMI. With that configuration everything worked fine. Was not sure if HDMI cable only would carry the signal.

I am using 5 outputs from this unit. Two cables are 125' one cable is 100', one about 75 'and the other about 10'. Installed it in a Church and it works great. They of the outputs are feeding 65" 4K TV's. Very satisfied with unit and Monoprice.

I don't know what the maximum limit is, but I was able to connect multiple displays 150'-200' away using this splitter and Monoprice's SlimRun HDMI cables, so you should be fine.

Just wanted to follow up to my question here, ended up getting 3x of these boxes and they daisy chain without an issue (up to the 2nd level).

What are the best HDMI cables should I use with the Blackbird 4K Pro 1x8 HDMI® Splitter with HDCP 2.2 and EDID ? It seems there are many different types. I am looking for 4 to 6 foot cables.

Will this amplify the signal? I need it sent to 5 TVs and the box I have now - when I plug in the 4th and 5th TV the picture cuts out on all the TVs at different times every 10 seconds or so.

I am using the 1x8 HDMI splitter (PN 15260) with four TV on the outputs and a computer on the input. The two 60" TVs work fine. but the two smaller 43" TVs will not display the computer output. A resolution mismatch error is displayed instead. When I use the same splitter driven by my iPad 2 all four TVs work fine. Does anybody have an Idea what may be the problem?

BEST ANSWER: May be a computer issue or setting. Need to check the resolution display output on the display setting mode. It could be an older graphics card.

This device is not CEC compatible.
Currently there are no splitters that we carry that will pass CEC.

I have attempted to connect a 40’ 4K60hz 18gbs Monoprice Cabernet Ultra series (item#12961) to an older Sony Bravia KDL 52XBR6. The tv on HDMI 1 is saying not detecting a signal. What could be the issue. I have two other TVs connected to the splitter (similar but shorter cables) and they are working great. Any ideas? Thanks

Works well, as expected.
Works well, and the EDID operation has been flawless.
I particularly like the secure screw-on fitting for the power connection - no accidental disconnects.
Only 4 stars instead of 5 because the LEDs are much too bright.
I've had to mask them off with tape because of the glare.
This LED problem happens with almost every device. Manufacturers should keep in mind that their devices will be used in A/V environments where any extraneous sources of light can be distracting. An "LED off" option would be perfect.

Great. It all connected devices must be HDCP 2.0 or higher
Effortless install and worked perfectly with newer components. Apparently, when the spec identifies the HDCP formats, it is ONLY the newer ones specified. It's not backwards compatible with my older 1.4 devices.

Great Product
Originally ordered the 1x4 unit, but it was uavaiabe at the tie. This unit is very compact and I now have room to add additional displays as needed. Installation was a snap, and it works perfectly with a variety of different displays.

Fixed my multiple scree setup
My BestBuy splitter didn't cut it. Without the EDID support, my windows media station had a great deal of difficulty dealing with the extra chatter in order to set it's resolution. After adding this device the monitors display video immediately.
