UGREEN 50966 2-in-1 Out HDMI Switcher 4K@60Hz Bi-Directional for PS5 Xbox TV Monitor
The UGREEN 50966 is a bi‑directional HDMI switcher. It can connect two HDMI sources to one display (2‑in‑1‑out) or one HDMI source to two displays (1‑in‑2‑out). This flexibility makes it perfect for managing multiple devices. The switch supports 4K resolution at 60Hz. It is HDMI 2.0 compatible and delivers crisp, high‑resolution video for modern gaming consoles, PCs, media players, and TVs. It also supports HDR, 3D video, and HDCP 2.2/1.4 for secure, high‑quality signal transmission.
Inside, a high‑performance chip ensures stable 18 Gbps bandwidth. This provides seamless video and audio transmission. The switch supports rich sound formats, including DTS‑HD, Dolby TrueHD, LPCM 7.1, and DTS. This makes it ideal for immersive entertainment setups. The device is plug and play. No external power is needed. A single button on the unit allows quick toggling between inputs or outputs. A small LED indicator shows which port is active.
The slim, durable housing (ABS + PC or aluminum alloy in some versions) fits neatly into any setup without taking much space. The switch supports long‑distance signal extension. It allows up to 40 meters for 1080p signals. For higher resolutions, distances are shorter. For example, 4K@60Hz using a 30 AWG HDMI cable works up to 1 meter. This makes it suitable for various installation scenarios.
Whether you are switching between a PS5 and a media player on one TV, or sending one source to two displays, the UGREEN 50966 delivers reliable, high‑quality performance.
