Vention 3-In-1-Out HDMI Switcher — Gray Metal Type (AFFH0 / AFJH0)
The Vention 3-In-1-Out HDMI Switcher is a powered signal-routing hub that connects three HDMI source devices to a single display, monitor, or projector and lets you switch between them using either a front-panel button or an included IR remote. It is well suited to home entertainment setups, small offices, and any desk or AV rack where display ports are limited but source devices keep multiplying. The gray aluminum alloy and ABS construction gives it a neutral, professional look that blends easily into both home and office environments.
Most televisions, monitors, and projectors ship with only one or two HDMI ports. Once a gaming console, laptop, streaming device, and Blu-ray player are all connected, ports run out quickly. Swapping cables manually every time you switch devices wears out connectors and disrupts the viewing experience. The Vention 3-In-1-Out HDMI Switcher resolves this by acting as a permanent hub: all three sources stay connected at all times, and switching between them takes a single button press — or a press on the remote from across the room. Auto-switching further reduces friction by detecting the most recently activated source and routing it to the display without any input from the user at all.
