Overview
['The Orei HD-102C gives you three HDMI outputs from a single input, making it straightforward to duplicate a signal across multiple screens. It is a plug-and-play unit with no software or configuration required, which is part of why buyers find it easy to set up.', 'At $12.99 it sits in the value tier, and the 4.4-star rating from 455 buyers suggests Orei has the basic signal integrity dialed in. The black finish keeps it unobtrusive behind a TV stand or in a media cabinet.', 'Keep in mind this is a passive splitter, meaning the output resolution depends on the capabilities of your weakest connected display. If one screen is 1080p and the others are 4K, all three will lock to 1080p.']

Frequently asked questions
Can the Orei HD-102C send different content to each screen?
No. The HD-102C mirrors one input to all three outputs simultaneously. Every connected display shows the same picture. If you need different content on each screen, you need an HDMI switch or a separate source for each TV.
Does it work with 4K sources?
Orei does not publish a confirmed 4K spec for this model. The output resolution will match the lowest-resolution display connected. If 4K passthrough is critical, look at Orei's UHDS-series splitters that explicitly list 4K support.
Does it need external power?
Orei does not clearly specify whether this unit is bus-powered or requires a separate power adapter. Check the product listing for included accessories, and be aware that long HDMI cable runs sometimes require an active splitter with its own power supply.
