AppleTV connection

My TV has only 2 HDMI ports (both occupied - Cable box & bluRay player). Alternatives for connecting Apple TV?

No problem. The purpose of the switcher is to expand a single HDMI port so that more items can connect when the native ones are limited. I had to opt for one myself because only some of my TV's ports supported full 4K/HDR.


This is the one I've been using happily for a few years now, just to give you an idea.

Always make sure to read reviews and make sure it supports everything you need (i.e. 4K/HDR @60fps etc).


If you have more questions I would be happy to help.
