Vention 5-In-1-Out HDMI Switcher — Black (ACDG0)

The Vention ACDG0 is a powered 5-input, 1-output HDMI switcher that connects up to five source devices to a single display and routes between them using either a front-panel button or an included IR remote. It is built for home entertainment systems, gaming stations, and small office setups where five sources — consoles, laptops, streaming sticks, Blu-ray players, set-top boxes — all need to share one TV, monitor, or projector without manual cable swapping. The ABS and aluminum alloy shell, finished in black with gold-plated connector trim, gives it a compact, clean profile that sits unobtrusively on an AV shelf or behind a desk.

Five devices plugged into one switcher represents a meaningful step up from the two or three HDMI ports most displays offer. Rather than pulling cables every time you switch between a laptop and a gaming console, or between a streaming device and a cable box, all five sources stay permanently connected. The ACDG0’s auto-detect feature monitors which source was most recently active and switches to it instantly, removing even the button press in typical use. A built-in memory function records the last active input so that after a power cycle the unit returns to the correct source automatically — a detail that matters in living room and rack installations where reboots would otherwise require manual reselection.
