None of these splitters/extenders seem to support 4K 60Hz 4:4:4. There is no option on the SHIELD to select a specific resolution. It is auto-detect. There is also no word whether the SHIELD supports 4K 60Hz 4:2:0. It is likely that you will only get 4K 30Hz resolution when you use the splitter.
I'd be disappointed if the Shield didn't support 4:2:0 2160/60p and 50p - it's the only 2160/50p and 60p mode that quite a few HDMI 2.0 UHD TVs support - including mainstream Sony (and I think Samsung) models. They don't support 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 at 2160/60p or 50p. (Presumably because they are only support the HDMI 2.0 4:2:0 mode which fits into HDMI 1.4 bandwidth limits? nVidia support 4:2:0 2160/50p and 60p on their otherwise-HDMI 1.4a Kepler/Maxwell based video cards with recent Windows and Linux drivers so that may be hopeful.)
