Guest-room channels have to look perfect from the lobby to the top floor. The MINIMOD 2+ earned NAB Product of the Year, CE Pro Best, and CEDIA Best of Show because it delivers a broadcast-grade channel: +45 dBmV output and MER above 45 dB, so every guest-room TV locks instantly and the picture stays flawless across the whole property.
Recognition
The Hotel HDMI Modulator Properties Have Trusted Since 2017
When a property needs a custom welcome or amenity channel in every guest room, the VeCOAX MINIMOD 2+ is the hotel HDMI modulator integrators specify β award-winning, US-built, proven on 50,000+ installations.
How a Hotel HDMI Modulator Works
HDMI In β A Custom Channel in Every Guest Room
A hotel HDMI modulator encodes your source and adds it to the property's coax TV system as a tunable channel. Every guest-room TV finds it on a normal scan β no per-room hardware, no network.
- Feed any HDMI source into the modulator β welcome player, event loop, amenity reel, in-house movie server, lobby camera
- Assign a guest-room channel number on the front-panel LCD
- Combine the coax output into the property's existing TV distribution
- Every guest-room TV tunes the channel on a normal scan, in full 1080p
- No set-top box per room, no HDMI runs, no rewiring
- Add more property channels by adding more modulators on the same coax
Setup
Launch a Guest-Room Channel in Under a Minute. No Computer Required.
Property IT teams don't have time for laptop-driven menus. The MINIMOD 2+ puts every setting β channel, modulation, output level β on a color LCD right on the box, so staff can deploy or change a channel in seconds.
- Built-in color LCD shows the channel, frequency, and signal status at a glance
- Match the property's standard β QAM or ATSC β right on the front panel
- No PC, no software, no app β the hotel modulator is self-contained
- Power on β pick a channel β combine onto coax β scan TVs β done
Matches Your Property
Works With Whatever Standard Your Guest TVs Tune
QAM for cable-mode guest TVs, ATSC for antenna-mode, plus DVB-T, DVB-C, and ISDB-T for international properties β selectable on the LCD. One modulator fits any hotel TV system.
Hotels run different TV systems β most North American properties use QAM, others use ATSC or international standards. The MINIMOD 2+ outputs all of them, so your custom channel joins the existing guest-room lineup cleanly no matter how the property is configured.
Because it produces a true broadcast-standard channel, your welcome or amenity content behaves exactly like any professional station on every guest TV.
Remote Control
Manage Guest-Room Channels From Any Browser
The front-panel LCD handles setup, but when modulators live in the property's head-end room you can also monitor and retune them remotely through the secure web interface.
- Optional web interface for remote channel and level changes over the property LAN
- Manage a whole rack of hotel modulators from the front desk or IT office
- Works from PC, Mac, tablet, or phone β no app to install Built for hotel hdmi modulator installations.
- Live status and alerts so staff know every guest channel is on-air
Audio
Your Guest-Room Channel Sounds as Good as It Looks
A welcome or amenity channel should impress. The MINIMOD 2+ encodes broadcast-grade Dolby Digital so audio arrives locked to picture in every guest room.
- Dolby Digital / LPCM audio on your guest-room channel
- Tight lip-sync from source to every room β no drift over long coax runs
- Passes 5.1 surround from compatible HDMI sources Built for hotel hdmi modulator installations.
- Clean voice, music, and effects on every guest TV
Installation
Three Connections. Done.
HDMI in. Combine onto coax. Channel scan. Your content reaches every guest room β in Full HD with synced audio.
A hotel HDMI modulator install with the MINIMOD 2+ takes minutes, not days. Connect the HDMI source to the input, combine the F-type coax output into the property's TV distribution, pick a guest-room channel on the LCD, and auto-scan a sample of rooms. There is no network to configure and no set-top boxes β the existing coax serves every room.

High Density
10+ Property Channels with the MiniBlade Kit
For resorts and large properties, the VeCOAX MiniBlade system packs 10 or more modulator units into a single rack β each fully independent so one channel can never take down the rest.

FAQ
Hotel HDMI Modulator - Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hotel HDMI modulator?
A hotel HDMI modulator is a device that turns an HDMI source into a real digital TV channel over coax. For the hotel hdmi modulator keyword family, the VeCOAX MINIMOD 2+ handles adding hotel welcome, information, event, or entertainment channels to guest-room TVs and lets every connected TV scan the result like normal television.

Can I use existing coax with this hotel HDMI modulator?
Yes. This is the main advantage of hotel hdmi modulator: it reuses RG6 or RG59 coax already in the walls. You do not need to pull new HDMI cables to every display.
Do I need a computer to set up this hotel HDMI modulator?
No. Channel number, modulation standard, output settings, and basic configuration can be set from the built-in color LCD. This makes hotel hdmi modulator setup fast even without a laptop.
Why is the color LCD important for hotel hdmi modulator?
The front display lets installers confirm the active channel, standard, and operating status at the rack or TV closet. That makes hotel coax TV distribution faster to commission than units that require software for basic setup.
