What Devices Support USB-C and HDMI at the Same Time?
This article will cover various devices that support both HDMI and USB-C video inputs, from video switchers to extenders to video wall processors. If you are looking for similar products or have any questions, feel free to reach out!
USB-C and HDMI Switchers
These devices let you connect multiple sources to a single display and switch between them. Take a look at our AV Wall Plate Series or our 8K HDMI/USB-C switcher, for example!
You can usually switch sources using:
- A button on the unit
- A remote control
- Auto switching (on some models)
Best for: Meeting rooms, classrooms, and home setups where multiple devices share one screen.
USB-C and HDMI Extenders
Extenders send video signals over long distances using Cat6/Cat6A cables or fiber. In the extender category, we have both wall plate extenders and a standard extender kit.
A typical setup includes:
- A transmitter connected to your USB-C or HDMI devices
- A receiver connected to the display
Some models also let you switch between sources remotely.
Best for: Large buildings, auditoriums, or installations where displays are far from the source devices.
Video Wall Processors with USB-C Support
These systems take multiple inputs and display them across several screens as a single large image or as multiple independent views. In this category, we have our BG-UHD-VWP19 and the BG-UHD-VW2X2A.
They support features like:
- 2x2, 3x3, or custom screen layouts
- Real-time switching
- Image scaling
Best for: Digital signage, control rooms, retail displays, and command centers.
