Could I stack two of these to end up with 3 threeway switch? Plug the output of one into one of the inputs of the other and end up with 3 total inputs

You can. But you have a 50 50 chance of this product working correctly as is. So if you do that then it probably won't work at all! This product is not good!

Not an easy answer. If the question is really "Can I plug each of my 3 output devices into this switch and have my camcorder feed all simultaneously," the answer is no. This switch is 6 in, 1 out and does not support the opposite (1 in 6 out) that you want. The device you want is a DA or DS (Distribution Amp or Distribution Switch); however, depending on the exact cabling options of each of your devices, you CAN feed all three devices without a switch by using regular cabling and perhaps a "y" cable or two, but I assume you knew that already.

This is a splitter, not a switcher. See the description -- 1 in, 8 outs. Multiplies your signal to other outputs. A good example of a use for this would be in a Walmart (with all of the TVs displaying the same content) or for TVs inside a health club, coffee shop, etc. which need to share the same output. -Ki Salem Beats

I did not get the 6x2 so I can not speak to that. However, the 2x1 or 1x2 bi-directional switch splitter box takes 1 input and allows it to go to either of 2 outputs. It only splits. It will not take 2 separate inputs to go to 2 separate devices.

Yes and no, you can set up up as a 3 or more way switch but you need a insteon switch or keypad at each location. You can not use the insteon switch with a standard switch in a 3 way configuration.

I don't think this will work for you. There is only one control switch, so I can't see it working for you

I know it says "input" on 2 and "output" on 1 connector. But, you can really use it either way. 1 input to 2 outputs or 2 inputs to 1 output. It's possible that there is some signal degradation, but I've used it successfully to switch between two outputs. Most of the time you wouldn't need to do that, as a splitter provides 2 outputs for 1 input. In the past, I had to use this switch instead of the splitter, because I wanted to have a bit of isolation. It worked fine.

I am not sure, but if you couldn´t just plug both ports, it probably means it isn´t possible, since there is a single "on" switch...

No I don't think it works that way. You need two outs from your switch/router to go to the two inputs, then you need 2 coupling for the RJ45 that will run in the middle and connect the two. The only advantage of using this is that you don't have to run two cable just one.

This is a switch splitter, not a true matrix. Only one HDMI input can be displayed on two HDMI outputs displays at a time

Yes, you can. I bought two packages to do just that. Ultimately, I decided to use both switches, on opposite sides of the room. It works really well, as they are interchangeable.

Don't think so... The way it comes pre-wired is a little strange (but easily modifiable). The whole unit shares a common ground (understandable) but each switch also shares a common hot (hence the strangeness and that means only one fuse for 6 switches) then each switch has an individual hot output. Now, I modified mine so each switch would have its own (fused) hot input. Sure hope this made sense. Overall, I am really happy about the set up, appearance, and performance.

There is nothing stopping you from trying that but my guess is that it will not work. I did that (used a splitter backwards) some years ago and, after discovering that it was worse than just twisting wires together, gave up on the idea until I found the Channel Plus Splitter/Combiner. Unlike a "Y" in a hose or pipe, electronics is not necessarily bidirectional unless designed to be that way; hence most are called simply "splitters" and few are called "combiners" or "splitter/combiner."

No! This works as a one way splitter. You'll need a switch box. If both devices are accidentally turned on at the same time you may damage your electronics.

You could hook up 4 speakers up to the four switches!push 1 for one speaker.hope that was helpful

I use it with 2 separate inputs going to one output. I don't know if it works the other way.
