CON-H2-DD-EARC

4K/60 In-line HDMI Scaler with DSP-Controlled Audio Breakout, Dolby TrueHD™ & DTS-HD™ Downmixing and eARC Output

Introduction

Bringing the latest technology currently only seen on the latest HDMI 2.1 devices the CON-H2-DD-EARC tackles the demands of today’s technology head-on and
provides a multi-pronged approach to the challenges of the modern residential AV system. It combines a powerful set of features that can both down-mix Dolby
TrueHD or DTS-HD audio to stereo and scale incoming 4K UHD content to 1080p. The DSP-controlled stereo audio output allows adjustment of both volume
and EQ via a control system and the unit can be customised further by manually controlling the down-mixing to the S/PDIF and HDMI outputs. ARC/eARC
breakout of audio from a connected smart TV completes the formidable line-up of this trail-blazing device.
