FeinTech eARC VAX01202 1x2 HDMI audio extractor for modern TVs providing Dolby Atmos TrueHD DTS-HD to an AV receiver, 5 V DC || 500 mA || 1.75 W

The VAX01202 is a solution for connecting the latest TVs equipped with an HDMI EARC connection to previous audio systems. Modern players such as the XBox Series X or the PlayStation PS5 can be connected directly to the TV, even via HDMI 2.1. Therefore, there are no restrictions on video formats or games. At the same time, high-quality audio formats can be played as normal HDMI signals through the AV receiver. The VAX01202 converts eARC audio signals into a conventional HDMI signal. The AV receiver or audio system therefore does not need to support a new video format. A black screen and sound are provided. All eARC audio formats are possible, e.g. Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD, PCM5.1, Dolby MAT, Dolby Atmos. A standard HDMI input on the audio system is sufficient for this. An HDMI-ARC connection on a sound bar is not suitable for connection. The VAX01202 can be used as an HDMI splitter after manual switching. The signal from an HDMI player is thus distributed between the television/projector and the audio system. An HDMI signal up to a maximum of 4K 60Hz Dolby Vision passes through the TV output. The audio system receives a black screen and the audio signal. This means that older AV receivers can also be used with HDMI 1.3/1.4. Power is supplied via USB device socket, power supply is not included (max. 350mA, power consumption <1.75W). Notes: If used as eARC audio extractor, please refrain from direct connection between AV receiver and TV or disable HDMI-CEC on AV receiver. Otherwise, a loop with a malfunction is created. Note: Please do not cover the case or power supply and do not install the device to avoid overheating. Keep away from sources of heat, fire, water and humidity. Do not place heavy objects on the device or on the connection cables. Do not open or drill holes in the case. Use only appropriate USB ports for power supply. Only clean the surface of the device with a soft, dry cloth. Please do not use strong detergent, gasoline or the like. If the device is not used for a long time or has malfunctions, please unplug the user cable
