HDMI cord splitter to bedroom TV and main TV

In the ACE 30.2 the HDMI cord is routed through the area under the bunkbeds to the larger TV. I checked and the cord makes its way under the microwave and over to the TV. I would like to pull this HDMI cord back to the area under the bed and use an HDMI 1-4 device to mirror the HDMI feed to all 4 TVs in the slide. I would have to run 4 new HDMI cables but they are all relatively close and in the same slide.

The 30.2 has 2 TVs in the bunks, 1 in the bedroom and 1 in the front area. Does anyone see a fault in this plan. The 1-4 HDMI splitters work great to replicate the same signal to multiple displays. I think it should work fine in an RV. We have a dish Wally receiver and would be ok watching the same show. Actually I prefer that to having multiple shows competing with audio.

I'm interested in the answers or follow up to this. I just today added the Wally and King Tailgator to my coach. Due to ignorance (mine) it took me most of the day to get it all together and connected to only one set (outside) since the wally was easier to connect there for testing. Looks like this event will require running a separate set of cable to all sets but that will come later. Good luck.

They do sell Bluetooth HDMI that several people on the forum have used to fix broken cables instead of running new cables they say they work great this may help you situation that you don't have to run 4 new HDMI lines ??

Bluetooth HDMI or simply wireless HDMI.
Is that the same?
This post has me searching and it looks like wireless HDMI may be the ticket to my need.
