Five-port HDMI 2.1 switch for multi-source setups
The UTEK 5x1 HDMI 2.1 switch routes five HDMI sources to a single display. It is built for users who need to connect several consoles, PCs or media players to one screen without swapping cables. The unit supports 8K resolution at 60 Hz, 4K at 120 Hz and 1080p at 240 Hz. An included IR remote and front-panel button provide two ways to change the active input.
48 Gbps bandwidth and HDCP 2.3 compliance decide
The switch passes video at up to 48 Gbps and meets HDCP 2.3 requirements. These two specifications determine whether protected 8K or high-refresh 4K content will display correctly. Certified Ultra High-Speed HDMI 2.1 cables are required on every connected device to achieve the rated performance. Cable runs must not exceed three metres on either side of the switch.
Bundled remote and USB power cable shape the install
A handheld IR remote is supplied but ships without its CR2025 battery, so a separate cell is needed before first use. A USB power cable is also included; it must be connected when the switch draws power from only one HDMI source. These accessories mean the unit works in bus-powered scenarios, but the buyer must provide the battery and a USB port or charger.

Questions about this item
What does the 48 Gbps bandwidth mean when the switch is connected to my display?
It allows uncompressed 8K at 60 Hz, 4K at 120 Hz or 1080p at 240 Hz to pass through to a single screen, provided every cable in the chain is an HDMI 2.1 Ultra High Speed certified cable.
How does the HDMI 2.1 interface limit what I can actually run?
The switch caps at 48 Gbps, so 8K is limited to 60 Hz, 4K to 120 Hz and 1080p to 240 Hz; higher refresh rates or bit depths would exceed the link and are not supported.
What do I need to fit and power this 5×1 switch in my setup?
Five HDMI source cables, one HDMI display cable — each no longer than 3 metres — plus the supplied USB power cable if the active source cannot deliver enough power on its own.
