Question Hot HDMI Splitters

[Frank]

Hello,
2020 Baystar 3401, above the driver in the cabinet are 2 HDMI 1x4 UTP Splitter Power over Cable boxes. These seem very warm when in operation. Is this normal? Thanks in advance.

Yes, AV components including splitters can get very hot. I personally have USB fans on the back of my AV compartment to help draw the hot air out.

Thanks for the reply. Just seems like a fire hazard to me especially on hot days. New to Newmar and lots of new stuff to learn.
