The issue was since I didn't have a dedicated monitor for 2nd pc I would get black screens or randomly no response. So researching this is considered a headless setup and therefore this adapter. So I plugged it in and sure enough, it works as described. It supports 1920x1080 on hdmi which is fine with me. So now I can continue to use Splashtop and also have my KVM when I need to flip over and control the PC directly. Very inexpensive option that worked plug and play. Highly recommend! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Helps keep computer available for remote display *by D***N on January 20, 2024* I have a laptop that I use as a server, and I keep the screen closed while I remote into it. However, if I leave the laptop on for more than a few hours then it won't send a display signal over the remote connection.Just plug in this HDMI plug and I can remote into it whenever I want. Works great ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If your looking for these then you have found the right ones:) *by D***N on August 29, 2016* This item is truly plug and play. After initial setup of your OS then one only needs to install a service like teamviewer to access the computer. These work awesome if your building rigs for crypto currency mining. It beats the heck out of trying to short a couple pins together on a make shift adapter to trick the system into thinking it has a monitor. If you need a headless system and want to run the latest gpu this is a must have. They also lend you the ability to change what resolution you want to view the computer in remotely. Back when i used the old trick of shorting a plug it never let me swap resolution. Was stuck at something aweful like 640x480. Ive bought over 7 now and the first 5 have been running over a year without any issues whatsoever.
