Yes
TV-1 is downstairs and hardly use by my landlord, but obviously i cant use that cable for my TV-2 permanently, so is there anyway i can use a splitter or diseq switch ete which ever is appropriate to use the same cable for my TV-2, I know running two TV at the same time is not possible and not required anyway. An HDMI Splitter is used to take a single source (such as a BlueRay Player, Cable Box, or Satellite box) and distribute that HDMI signal to multiple TVs. Most splitters if needed can also be cascaded to further expand such splitting capability. But one thing people don’t understand is that every time you put a splitter in to connect 2 TV's to one cable line, you loose more signal. I will give you the knowledge that I learned of the past 2 months about how splitters work, how signal degrades, and what levels are the perfect combination. First let’s start off with the signal strength levels. The Ideal signal is at 0db (zero decibels). 0db is the strength of the signal coming from the cable box on the street into your home. For every Splitter put in the line, you loose either -3.5db or -7db depending on the splitter. Your Digital cable box and your Cable modem have limits to how low it can go before you start loosing your service. In general calculations, a splitter reduces the usable length of the cable by half. But the signal level also loses power as it travels along a cable. If you have a usable signal at 200 feet, a splitter may reduce the signal so low you can't use it on either side. The most common splitter is a 1:2 - or one to two. The most common use for such splitter is to attach to a cable or satellite box, and split (or distribute) such signal to 2 TVs located in different locations. All of today's modern splitters support most of the HDMI version 1.4A specifications. A splitter in the cable from a satellite dish divides the signal into two parts to connect to two receivers. However the signal in each direction loses more than half its power. An additional splitter will cut the signal power in half again.
