SMUGDESK Torpedo Nova HDMI 2.1 1x2 Splitter with Built-in Scaler

SKU CH-DCJ6-WH2Q8

HDMI 2.1 splitter sends one source to two screens at up to 8K 60Hz or 4K 120Hz with independent scaling per output

  • Asynchronous dual-display scaling via built-in scaler
  • 48 Gbps bandwidth delivers 8K 60 Hz and 4K 120 Hz
  • HDCP 2.3 bypass unlocks protected 4K Blu-ray and streaming
  • HDR10 VRR ALLM support for lag-free competitive gaming
  • Aluminium alloy housing dissipates heat and resists interference

One source, two independent displays

The SMUGDESK Torpedo Nova is an HDMI 2.1 1x2 splitter with a built-in scaler that lets a single 48Gbps source drive two screens at different native resolutions. It accepts 8K at 60Hz or 4K at 120Hz input and downscales each output independently without distortion. This makes it practical for mixed setups pairing a new 8K television with an older 1080P monitor.

Fits between source and two screens

Connect a PS5, Xbox, Blu-ray player or desktop graphics card to the single HDMI 2.1 input, then run cables to two displays. The integrated scaler handles asynchronous output so each screen receives its optimal resolution automatically. HDCP 2.3 bypass removes protection handshake issues for encrypted 4K UHD Blu-ray discs and paid streaming services. No extra power supply or software driver is required for basic operation.

Sustained 48Gbps throughput with passive cooling

The aluminum alloy housing dissipates heat during continuous 8K60 or 4K120 transmission, maintaining signal integrity over long sessions. HDR10, VRR, ALLM and QMS pass through natively to support lag-free competitive gaming without frame drops. The scaler chip operates independently per port, preventing one display’s timing from affecting the other under heavy load. Bandwidth remains stable at the full 48Gbps specification.
