Description
The DigiFusion HDS104EAS is a professional-grade HDMI distribution hub designed for high-fidelity signal splitting and audio management. Encased in a durable aluminum alloy chassis, this device takes a single HDMI input from sources like PS5, Xbox, or PC and duplicates it across four separate displays without signal degradation. Its standout feature is the integrated audio extractor, which provides dedicated 3.5mm analog and Optical digital outputs, allowing users to route sound directly to external amplifiers or soundbars.
This product is for:
- Home Theater Enthusiasts: Perfect for routing a single media player to both a primary TV and a secondary projector while maintaining high-end audio output.
- Commercial Display Managers: Ideal for retail showrooms or sports bars needing to mirror content across four screens simultaneously.
- Professional Gamers and Streamers: Allows splitting a console signal to a monitor, a capture card, and a secondary viewing screen without latency.
- Educational Institutions: Enables teachers to display laptop content on multiple classroom monitors or projectors for better visibility.
- Event Coordinators: Simplifies signal distribution for presentations or digital signage in conference rooms and exhibition halls.

Setting up the HDS104EAS is a plug-and-play experience, requiring no driver installation or complex software configuration. The aluminum housing effectively dissipates heat, ensuring stable performance during long-term operation, which is critical for 24/7 digital signage. Signal integrity remains sharp across all four outputs, and the inclusion of dedicated audio ports eliminates the need for expensive HDMI-to-Audio converters. The LED indicators provide immediate visual confirmation of active connections, making troubleshooting straightforward in complex AV racks.
Compared to standard passive HDMI splitters, the DigiFusion HDS104EAS offers superior signal amplification, supporting longer AWG26 cable runs up to 10 meters for 1080p content. Unlike basic splitters that lack audio management, this model includes both analog and digital audio extraction, providing more flexibility than the HDS102 series. While entry-level plastic alternatives may suffer from electromagnetic interference, the HDS104EAS’s metal shielding ensures a cleaner signal path and better physical durability in high-traffic environments.
Q&A:
- Does this HDMI splitter support 4K resolution? Yes, it supports 4K signals with a transmission rate of up to 6Gbps, provided you use AWG26 cables within the 8-meter limit.
- Can I use the 3.5mm and Optical ports at the same time? Yes, the audio extraction feature allows simultaneous output to external speakers while the HDMI ports carry the video signal.
- Is this device compatible with the latest gaming consoles like PS5 or Xbox Series X? It is fully compatible with HDMI source devices, though it is optimized for standard 4K/60Hz distribution rather than 4K/120Hz VRR features.
- Does it require an external power source? Yes, the unit includes a DC 5V power adapter to ensure signal stability across all four output ports.
- Can I extend the signal further than 10 meters? For 1080p, the maximum recommended distance using AWG26 standard cables is 10 meters for both input and output; exceeding this may require an active HDMI extender.
