Very convenient to not have multiple HDMI cables connected to the TV. Works great on several shelves. Warning: it is tiny, but the catch is to be handled with care: it fits hair cell in HDMI ports, but by pressing firmly, avoiding to force like a nag, otherwise break everything. By being careful, all right. Remains to be seen over time. Added January 4, 2015: second purchase of this product. Still no problem. I recommend.
