Vention 1-In-2-Out HDMI Splitter 4K@30Hz — Gold Aluminum Alloy Type (ACBG0)

The Vention ACBG0 is a powered 1-input, 2-output HDMI splitter that mirrors a single 4K source to two displays simultaneously, with no drop in resolution or signal quality at either output. It is designed for home theatre setups, dual-screen presentations, gaming rooms, and any environment where one video source — a laptop, console, Blu-ray player, or streaming device — needs to appear on two screens at the same time. The gold-accented aluminum alloy and ABS housing keeps the unit cool during extended use and gives it a more durable, professional finish than the plastic-shell alternatives common at this price tier.

The fundamental limitation of most TVs, monitors, and projectors is that they accept a single HDMI input. Once you need to mirror a media PC to a bedroom TV and a living room screen, or drive both a client-facing display and a presenter’s monitor from one laptop, the only clean solution is an active HDMI splitter. Passive splitters divide signal strength and typically cause one or both outputs to display a degraded image or no picture at all. The Vention ACBG0 avoids this entirely with a built-in SII9187B signal amplification chip that actively regenerates and distributes the signal at full strength to both outputs, supporting cable runs of up to 30 metres per leg. Setup takes under a minute — connect the power adapter, plug in the source and the two displays, and both screens show the same image immediately.
