Average Rating: out of 5 stars
Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not particularly useful for most....
This is a well-assembled and high-quality product as far as cables go, typical of a Cables Unlimited product, but it was useless and will likely be useless to you.I have a two-monitor setup on my PC and wanted to duplicate the output of one my monitors to an LCD HDTV.The product comes with no real instructions, no support whatsoever, and the manufacturer hasn't bothered to tell people about the many limitations of this product. The result for me was many frustrating hours trying to get it to ... Read More

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - WARNING: Very Specific System Requirements
This is a solid cable, and as others have commented, it does split the image. However, it has some technical requirements that the company seems to have no interest in sharing:

Issue 1: You MUST have a dual-link DVI port on your computer. Many graphics cards that have two ports will have both a single-link DVI port, and a dual-link DVI port (like some for the MacPro). If you do not have a Dual-link port, your computer will not put out enough juice to split the signal.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Does what it's supposed to do
It splits the signal as it's designed to, you can't complain there. You need your devices to be able to use it though, which can be an issue.

Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Not that simple.
Splitting a video signal is not that simple, your computers video card must support multiple displays (and if it does it prabobly alredy has 2 or more connections). if your video card does not support multiple displays this connector will definitlly not work. I found out the hard way.

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Not compatible with mac...I think
I tried to split one of my display outputs so that I could use both my LCD monitor and my television.They both work individually, but when I hook them up to the splitter, neither of them work at all!Very dissapointing.I may have a defective product, but we'll see once I exchange it.
