NO this item does not work on anything... other then what ever projector or device it was made to work on.. it will not convert your signal from HTML to coax as advertised. you ARE going to need a Converter box.

The previous answer is basically correct. The 3 RCA cable connections are analog and the HDMI is digital so, this cable (or any other) will simply adapt from one type of connector to another but will not convert from one signal type to another. For that, you will need to purchase a converter. I would also check your ATT converter box to see if it does in fact have an analog output. I don't know about ATT but Cox, DirecTV and most other providers boxes provide several output so people with older TV's don't have to go buy a new TV. Hope this helps.

hello friend, wanted to do the same as you, but in my tv did not work, try connecting to other terminals and never got a picture, I think the cables are defective or do not work, I do not know, I do not work for me

You CAN'T. The DTA-800B1 does NOT work for cable television. It only is capable of receiving and decoding over-the-air digital broadcast television channels (a format called "ATSC"), not cable channels (using a format called "QAM").

I don't think that should be a problem, but it might be kinda tight. FYI, there are newer HDMI cables out there that are significantly thinner than standard cables that would make things easier. Also, you mention speaker wires which leads me to believe that you are using a receiver with your set-up. If so, and if it does HDMI switching, you can eliminate all but one HDMI cable going to you TV.

The HDMI spec is 25ft. Anything over that could have problems depending on the equipment you use. One TV might work fine another not. One computer or BR player may work fine another not. No one can guarantee your situation will work. You will just have to try it. Down the road if you change equipment you may then experience problems. Unless you can stay below the 25ft spec your cant be guaranteed a reliable signal. Yes you can add amplifiers or signal balancers but then again it depends on the equipment at both ends of the cable.

My TV is analog and I pulled signal with no converter box. But the antenna wasn't great for my area, which could have been a geographical issue, but a cheap $10 pair of rabbit ears worked best for me.

If it was for local channels only you could have skiped the converter box and connected stright into your new TV. Try this first.

Should be able to do it since it has a HDMI input. I'm using a component converter from my cable box as I have an older cable box that doesn't have HDMI output but I just went in and looked and it has the HDMI input as shown in the product description.

If it is a newer model TV you do not need a converter box, it should be built in the tv, just hook up your antenna. I get about 35 channels with the antenna, an the picture is 100% better than with bright house cable and I don't have to pay outrageous prices for cable.

Edil,This product converts your HDMI signal to CAT5 (network cabling) and is only a transmitter. You can run the CAT5 to the location of your TV and using a receiver you can convert the signal back to HDMI.Regards,Mark PageiElectronics

Yes that will work. I now have my signal split 4 ways near the cable box and then 2 ways later in the house and the do not see degradation in the signal. I have both the 2-port and 4-port version of this product. I can watch 4 TVs all with the same picture. There may be slight delay in showing the picture as the HDMI synchronizes but once complete it works flawlessly.

Not if you are using newer Tv this just a antenna. If you need converter now you will need again

You want a box opposite of this one. This box takes an older type composite signal and outputs HDMI (for a new TV). Check the site for a box that does the opposite of this one (HDMI to composite) and you will be fine.

Yes it should help you get much better reception.It is set up to be used as a 300 ohm hook-up which connects to two screws on the back of your unit. It should be clearly marked.The only difference there would be is if your receiver has a 75 ohm hook-up which will look like the same connector as your cable TV hook-up which will mean that you will need an adapter that Amazon offers as a choice when you order this Antenna. It is very easy to do.good luck and enjoy.

As long as you have the three plugs on both units, you can connect this. You will have to direct your television (probably through the menu) to the proper input.

The HDMI port is for HDMI out only. Thus it would not do what you are asking. You need a device that will convert HDMI to a signal that your TV can understand.

most likely not - i just view this digital conversion thing as a way to "force" people into getting cable of some kind. You will need a converter box coz there will be no more over the air analog transmissions of TV signals.

Yes! I had the same issue. With this switch I have connected the cable box, a PS3 and primarily use the last one to hook up tablets or phones. Make sure you can access the splitter because every once in awhile the auto switching does't work. I don't think you can do better for the price. Definitely recommend this product.
