Overview
The HDMI Audio Extractor allows you to extract audio signals from your HDMI source. When connecting to a TV or display you don't always get the best audio, or in the case of a PC monitor, no audio at all. So with this Audio Extractor you can take your original HDMI audio signal and convert it to digital optical or analog stereo (L/R) audio. This means that you can output your audio signal to external speakers or extend your audio signal pathway.
Description
The Cypress CLUX-11CD HDMI Audio Extractor provides a convenient way to separate audio from an HDMI source for connection to dedicated audio equipment. It accepts one HDMI input and provides one HDMI output together with Optical and analogue L/R audio outputs. This allows HDMI video to continue to a connected display while audio can be routed to compatible external equipment.
The Optical output supports LPCM 2CH, Dolby 5.1 and DTS 5.1 audio formats, while the analogue L/R output provides LPCM 2CH stereo audio. The HDMI audio path supports LPCM 2CH, 5.1CH and 7.1CH, Dolby 5.1, DTS 5.1, DD , Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD formats.
The built-in EDID management provides three selectable modes: TV, Bitstream and 2CH LPCM. TV mode allows the HDMI source to follow the EDID of the connected TV or AV receiver, Bitstream mode supports compressed audio up to 5.1 channels, and 2CH LPCM mode configures the source for two-channel LPCM audio.
The unit can provide Optical or analogue audio output without requiring the HDMI output to be connected. This makes it useful with video displays that have limited audio connectivity, including PC monitors and other HDMI-equipped displays. The compact plastic enclosure measures 90.7 x 34 x 85.8 mm and weighs 107 g.
