8K HDMI 2.1 eARC Audio Converter

This adapter extracts audio from an HDMI source or a TV eARC port and sends it to a soundbar while passing video through to the display. It is built for home-theatre owners who want full-format audio on an eARC soundbar without losing 8K or 4K120 video capability.

HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3 compliant with 48Gbps

Two HDMI Type A female ports handle the TV eARC output and soundbar eARC input while a third HDMI input takes the source signal. The metal enclosure supports CEC control so volume and power commands pass between TV, source and soundbar without extra remotes.

Check your TV and soundbar both have eARC HDMI ports

The converter requires an eARC-enabled television and an eARC soundbar such as Sonos Arc or Beam to deliver Dolby Atmos and DTS:X. Standard ARC ports will not pass the high-bitrate formats listed in the specifications.

Questions about this item

What HDMI standard and bandwidth does the converter support?

It is HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3 compliant with a data rate up to 48Gbps, capping video at 8K@60Hz 4:2:0 12-bit or 4K@120Hz 4:4:4 12-bit.

What connectors and cables are needed to hook it up?

Three HDMI Type A 19-pin cables: one from the source to the Source IN port, one from the TV eARC port to the TV(eARC) OUT port, and one from the Soundbar eARC OUT port to the soundbar.

How do I set it up and which step do people miss?

Connect the source, TV eARC, and soundbar to the three labelled HDMI ports, power the unit, then enable eARC and CEC in the TV menu so the TV sends audio to the Soundbar eARC OUT port.
