AX210 HDMI 2.1 Audio Extractor (Toslink & Aux): Optimize your sound at 4K 120Hz

• HDMI Audio Extractor for sound output from player or TV (HDMI-ARC)
• Audio output via SPDIF Toslink (digital) and 3.5 mm jack (analog)
• EDID management to control the maximum audio and video formats
• Supports video formats up to 8K 60Hz or 4K 120Hz as well as gaming features such as VRR

HDMI Audio Extractor

This HDMI audio extractor sends the sound of an HDMI signal to a sound device via a jack connection and/or via the optical digital output SPDIF/Toslink. Both audio outputs receive the sound at the same time. The HDMI signal is passed through to the connected display without any loss. This receives both picture and sound.

Supports resolutions up to 8K 60Hz and 4K 120Hz

Resolutions up to 8K 60Hz HDR and 4K 120Hz are supported (up to 48 Gbps data rate). The AX210 is backwards compatible with all lower resolutions and guarantees lossless video and audio transmission. It also offers HDMI 2.1 gaming features such as Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) to reduce image stuttering and ensure smooth gameplay, as well as Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM), which automatically minimizes latency to improve response time in games.

ARC support

The ARC (Audio Return Channel) is supported. This means that the internal sound of a connected TV with HDMI-ARC/eARC port can also be output via the audio outputs of the AX210. To do this, activate ARC. A monitor or projector without ARC function can also be connected. ARC can then remain deactivated.

EDID management

With the EDID mode switch you can specify which audio and video formats should be supported. It is not possible to output different audio formats at the same time.

*COPY means that the EDID data of the connected display will be adopted.

FRL12G enables a maximum data rate of 48 Gbps (HDMI 2.1 maximum)

audio formats

• SPDIF can transmit audio formats up to 5.1: PCM Stereo, Dolby Digital Bitstream or DTS
• Only PCM stereo can be output via AUX/jack.
• All audio formats are supported via the HDMI connection, i.e. from the media player to the display.

The volume of the audio signal usually has to be regulated on the sound system. Some players such as Apple TV or Fire TV also offer control of the sound system.

switching on and off

Long press (5 seconds) of the ARC button turns the extractor on or off.
