Extracts Digital Audio to Optical (S/PDIF) or Stereo From a HDMI Connection
This compact device provides the perfect solution to extract digital or analogue audio from a HDMI connection. This will allow connection to audio equipment that may only offer S/PDIF or analogue inputs. This high quality HDMI audio extractor offers support for resolutions up to 4K Ultra HD (at 60Hz with HDR). This also includes support for standard HD resolutions (1080p and below).
For increased versatility, the audio is transmitted in both stereo analogue and digital (S/PDIF) simultaneously. The incoming HDMI connection is also passed through to enable seamless connection to a display (TV or projector etc.).
The S/PDIF output allows connection via a standard optical cable to any sound system that accepts optical input. Alternatively, a stereo cable (3.5 mm connector) can be used for analogue stereo throughput. This facilitates connection to a range of audio equipment such as AV receivers, micro hi-fi systems, sound bars or headphones etc.
This device also features a dedicated HDMI audio only output (sends a 720p 60 Hz black screen). This unique feature allows transmission of high definition audio formats (Dolby TrueHD or DTS-HD MA etc.) to legacy AV receivers or processors which may not be able to accept a 4K video signal. This also means that 4K video can be passed through simultaneously to any display which supports a 4K Ultra HD resolution.
