HDMI 2.1 Bi-Directional Switch, 8K@60Hz / 4K@120Hz, 2 In 1 Out
The CABLETIME CP34G is a manual bi-directional HDMI 2.1 switch for premium gaming, streaming and home-theatre systems. Route two HDMI sources to one display, or connect one source to two selectable displays, with one display active at a time.
Switch next-generation gaming and 8K sources without repeatedly changing cables
8K@60HzUltra-high-resolution HDMI output for compatible premium displays.
4K@120HzSmooth high-refresh performance for compatible consoles and gaming PCs.
VRR + HDRSupports advanced HDMI 2.1 features when the complete chain is compatible.
Bi-DirectionalUse 2 in / 1 out or 1 in / 2 selectable outputs.
Two HDMI sources to one display—or one source to either display
Use one television or gaming monitor with two sources such as a PS5 and Xbox, or reverse the connection to choose between a monitor and television from one HDMI source. Selection is made with the physical button.
Real 8K@60Hz capability for compatible HDMI 2.1 systems
Connect an HDMI 2.1 source, Ultra High Speed HDMI cables and an 8K display to access resolutions up to 8K@60Hz. The switch remains backward compatible with common 4K and Full HD HDMI equipment.
4K@120Hz for responsive console and PC gaming
Use compatible PS5, Xbox Series X/S or gaming-PC hardware with a 4K120 display for smoother motion and reduced input-lag perception. The source, game, graphics settings, cables and display input must all support 4K@120Hz.
Manual button control with clear status indication
Press the selector to change the active source or display. Manual control prevents unexpected automatic switching and makes the chosen HDMI path easy to understand in shared AV systems.
Choose one of two displays from a single source
Reverse the connection to move one console, PC or media player between two screens. This is ideal when you alternate between a desk monitor and television, but it does not operate both screens simultaneously.
Advanced HDMI features depend on the complete signal chain
VRR, Dynamic HDR, Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3 and high-refresh modes are available only when every connected component supports them. Use certified Ultra High Speed HDMI cables and select the correct enhanced HDMI mode on the television or monitor.
Compact metal-bodied design for entertainment and gaming setups
The aluminium and ABS enclosure fits neatly into a TV cabinet, gaming desk, AV rack or travel kit while providing a durable housing for the HDMI 2.1 switching electronics.
Important: not a simultaneous HDMI splitter
In 1-input / 2-output mode, only one display is active. For 8K@60Hz or 4K@120Hz, use HDMI 2.1-compatible source hardware, Ultra High Speed HDMI cables and a receiving display that supports the target mode. Shorter cable runs provide the greatest performance margin.
