5-Port 4K@60Hz HDMI Switch

The iArkPower HDSW0032M1 connects up to five HDMI sources such as consoles, streaming boxes or a PC to one display. It extracts audio from the HDMI stream and sends it to external speakers, soundbars or headphones via optical and 3.5 mm ports. The unit is new and weighs 0.46 kg. It includes an IR remote, power adaptor and manual for immediate use.

HDMI 2.0 18Gbps bandwidth limit

Video passes through at up to 4K@60Hz, 1080P@120Hz and 720P@120Hz with HDR10 and Dolby Vision support. The 18Gbps link and HDCP 2.2 compliance restrict use to HDMI 2.0-class signals; eARC and higher-bandwidth formats are not supported. ARC audio returns from a compatible TV through the optical and HDMI outputs only, not the 3.5 mm jack.

Push-button and IR switching

Auto-switching detects the active input and can be disabled for manual control via the front button or IR remote. Three EDID modes select 2CH stereo from the 3.5 mm jack, 5.1CH Dolby Digital or DTS from optical, or full passthrough including 7.1CH and Dolby Atmos via HDMI. Incorrect EDID selection is the usual cause of missing surround sound.

Questions about this item

Should I pick the 5-port version or a smaller switch?

This model gives you five HDMI inputs and one output, so you can connect up to five sources at once. If you only need two or three inputs, a smaller switch will do the same job with fewer ports.

What does 18 Gbps mean when I plug it into my TV?

The 18 Gbps bandwidth carries 4K at 60 Hz with HDR10 or Dolby Vision, plus 1080p at 120 Hz for high-refresh gaming.

How does the HDMI 2.0 interface limit what I can send?

HDMI 2.0 caps video at 4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 and audio at 7.1-channel LPCM or compressed 5.1 formats. It does not support eARC, so lossless Atmos must pass through the HDMI output instead.
