Vention 4K 1×8 HDMI Splitter — Black Aluminum Alloy Type (AKQB0)

The Vention AKQB0 is a powered 1-in/8-out HDMI splitter that distributes a single 4K video and audio source to eight displays simultaneously, with no loss in signal quality across any output. It is built for AV installers, IT professionals, educators, and business users who need reliable multi-screen distribution in commercial or semi-permanent installations. Boardrooms, digital signage arrays, classroom projector setups, and home theatre rooms are all natural fits for this device.

Splitting an HDMI signal without dedicated hardware is not straightforward — consumer-grade passive splitters frequently degrade resolution or produce flickering on one or more outputs. The Vention AKQB0 addresses this with a built-in signal amplifier that actively maintains digital integrity across all eight ports, sustaining stable transmission even over cable runs of up to 30 metres. Its brushed black aluminum alloy housing dissipates heat effectively during extended operation, which is critical in enclosed AV racks or wall-mount installations where passive cooling is the only option. Red and blue status indicator LEDs make it easy to confirm at a glance whether the unit is powered and transmitting.
