4K60 1×4 HDMI Splitter with Optical + Analog Audio Extraction
Break Audio Out to a Legacy Amp or DSP - S/PDIF Dolby/DTS Bitstream, PCM 2.0 on 3.5mm, 18Gbps 4:4:4 Pass-Through
Feeds one 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI source to four displays while handing a clean audio feed off to a legacy amp or DSP — without a separate de-embedder in the rack. Housed in a black metal enclosure and powered by an external 5V/1A supply, this 1×4 distribution amplifier passes the full 18Gbps of HDMI 2.0b to all four outputs with HDCP 2.2 and 1.4 compliance. It is the right choice for boardrooms, signage clusters, lecture halls and media rooms where deterministic EDID, an onboard downscaler and audio breakout matter more than 8K bandwidth or KVM.
Dial-selectable EDID COPY and AUTO modes give integrators a deterministic handshake across mixed displays instead of the lowest-common-denominator guess of a basic splitter, and a single global 4K to 1080P downscale switch drives older 1080p screens and projectors from the same 4K source. Audio de-embeds to two destinations at once: optical S/PDIF carrying LPCM, Dolby 5.1, Dolby TrueHD, DD+ and DTS bitstream for a surround processor, and analog L/R (PCM 2.0) on a 3.5mm jack for a stereo amp or ceiling-audio zone. That combination — full 18Gbps distribution, deterministic EDID, onboard downscaling and dual audio de-embed in one metal chassis — is what sets it apart from disposable prosumer splitters.
- HDCP 2.2 and HDCP 1.4 compliant.
- Supports HDMI resolution up to 4K2K@50/60Hz (4:4:4), per HDMI 2.0b.
- Passes the full 18Gbps of video bandwidth to all four HDMI outputs.
- Extracts digital and analog audio from the HDMI source.
- Output bypass and 4K to 1080P downscaler, selected by a panel dial switch; the downscale switch is global to all four outputs.
- EDID set to COPY or AUTO mode via a panel dial switch. In COPY mode the unit copies OUT 1's EDID to all outputs, cascading to OUT 2, then OUT 3, then OUT 4 if no capable EDID is detected. In AUTO mode it compares OUT 1 through OUT 4 and outputs the best shared resolution.
- Analog audio output: PCM 2.0 on a 3.5mm stereo mini-jack.
- Optical S/PDIF output supports LPCM 2.0/2.1CH, Dolby 5.1, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby DD+, DTS 5.1, DTS-ES 6, DTS-HDMA 5.1 and DTS HD-HRA 5.1.
- Metal enclosure with an external 5V/1A power supply.
