SM11ARC

The SM11ARC HDMI 2.0 Signal Manager is engineered to resolve common HDMI distribution issues such as compatibility conflicts, HDCP 2.3, handshaking, clock stretching, and general EDID problems, especially when working with 4K content. Fully compliant with HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.3 standards, the SM11ARC supports video resolutions up to 4K @ 60Hz 4:4:4, including formats with HDR. Building on the functionality of its predecessor (the SM11), the SM11ARC adds advanced audio features. Allowing audio embedding onto the HDMI output, replacing the original HDMI audio where required. Audio can also be de-embedded from the HDMI signal via optical S/PDIF or a 3.5mm analogue output. Additionally, it supports audio extraction (up to 5.1 channels) from a HDMI ARC-capable display connected to the HDMI output, via the S/PDIF port.
