The Description says this is both a Switcher and a Splitter. Is that true? Can I send one input to two outputs?

Yes that is true. I have a computer and dvd player connected, and I can manually switch between the two sources. And, yes it sends the one input (the one you select, input 1 or 2) or same signal to two HDMI sources.

I have not tried this, I need to put a splitter at the input end of mine, but as of yet have not done so. I am sorry.

Hi Safa,I have used the same device for about six weeks. The device will allow you to switch between inputs but not see two at once. Take care,John

You need a HDMI splitter, not this which is a switcher. A splitter splits the signal to two (or more) monitors/TVs/projectors, so all work simultaneously.

No, both outputs are identical to input selected. It's not a true matrix switcher. It's basically a splitter. So input1 goes to output1 and 2 or input2 goes to output 1 and 2

This is a splitter, not a switch. For two computers to a single monitor, you need a switch.

The unit I have has only one input and three outputs. So if I am understanding you correctly I would say no. You are saying "both" inputs which means two to me and the unit only has one input. I hope this helps.

You need a switchbox for two inputs. this is intendedto go from one output to two. If you run it the other way and both units get turned on at the same time you risk damage to your equipment.

This splitter can not do what you're attempting; this splitter is in the opposite direction. It will take one input and split it into two outputs. What you need is an HDMI switcher box (i.e. multiple inputs to one output). Hope this helps.

it should, the splitter will only read 1 connection at a time. use an ab switch.

I will not be able to answer your question, I can tell you I was happy with the xmiter and receiver pair but only controlling one switch.

A splitter will not allow the device to have enough power. The device will work on one port but at reduced power. Davids' suggestion is your solution.

Not really sure as it is made for 2 inputs and 1 output each, not the other way around.Daisy chaining them to another switcher could do 4 inputs and 2 outputs, if that's what you mean..

YES! This isn't a SPLITTER, this devices allows you to use all 4 pairs of wire in a CAT-5 cable to enable two ethernet ports. You need TWO devices per cable run. One on each end. 2 wires go to this device then to one wire. Then at the other end one wire goes to this device and two cables go out to your router/switch. Simple.

I'm not sure I understand the question. If you mean "Can the switcher connect 3 TVs to one input device instead of 3 input devices to one TV?", I don't see why it wouldn't work. It's just connecting HDMI cables but I haven't tried it.

You can output to 2 devices. But it can only have 1 input going to those 2 devices at a time.

This unit has a single (one) usb port, you could try to use a splitter but I could not say it would work. You should contact the manufacturer (TP link) on this.
