The j5create ScreenCast 4K Max is a wireless display adapter for people who want to show content from a compatible phone, tablet or laptop on an HDMI-equipped TV, monitor or projector. It suits home viewing, travel, classroom use and business presentations.

It supports AirPlay, Miracast and Chromecast (Google Cast), giving compatible devices several ways to cast. Dual-band 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz wireless and an external antenna support a connection over distances up to 15 metres in an open environment. The adapter can output up to 4K UHD; source resolution may be limited by the casting method and device. AirPlay and Miracast support point-to-point use without setting up a Wi-Fi connection, while Chromecast casting requires Wi-Fi. For shared spaces, a customisable background, Miracast PIN and Admin Gateway Password add presentation and management options.
