Review: Great product for the price! - They work great, we have several in our church to broadcast the sermon to various other rooms.
Review: Two malfunctioning units - I bought two of these units. One unit powered up, but would not show up on network or output video(tried several displays and hdmi cables). On one occasion was able to get a splash screen, but only momentary and then no signal. The second unit would not power up at all. Didn't test them until outside of return window. Will have to see how good the warranty process works.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product for the price!
*by B***N on December 30, 2025*

They work great, we have several in our church to broadcast the sermon to various other rooms.

### ⭐ Two malfunctioning units
*by J***S on December 2, 2024*

I bought two of these units. One unit powered up, but would not show up on network or output video(tried several displays and hdmi cables). On one occasion was able to get a splash screen, but only momentary and then no signal. The second unit would not power up at all. Didn't test them until outside of return window. Will have to see how good the warranty process works.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Makes it easier to run Ethernet than SDI
*by J***D on January 9, 2025*

We bought one of these for our church to run a display in the lobby for announcements. We have a Mac mini that allows for two outputs and this allows us to add another one really easy. It runs through our normal network (probably not recommended but we have a small footprint). We run an NDI output from ProPresenter and set the announcement layer on it. Sometimes it seems a bit finicky, and I think the order in which you turn things on may matter, but 9/10 times it just picks up the signal no problem.
