HDMI Distribution Amplifier 1x2 18 Gbps AC-DA12-AUHD-GEN2 4K60 with Audio Extraction

This 1x2 HDMI distribution amplifier sends one source to two destinations with 18 Gbps of bandwidth for stable 4K60 4:4:4 video. It also handles the awkward parts of a real system, including older displays, external audio and EDID conflicts.

Key Features

• 18 Gbps bandwidth: Full 4K60 4:4:4 signals pass with stability.
• Complete HDR support: HDMI 2.0 (a/b) carries HDR10, 12-bit, Dolby Vision, HDR10+ and HLG.
• HDCP 2.3 compliance: The latest version and all earlier versions are supported.
• Output 2 downscaler: The second HDMI output can reduce 4K to 1080p for legacy displays or AV receivers.
• Toslink audio extraction: A digital output pulls audio from the HDMI stream, including 7CH PCM, DD, DD+, DTS and DTS-MA.
• Advanced EDID management: Sixteen settings are available, including auto and a dedicated Cascade Mode.
• Cascadable design: Built-in cascade mode allows multi-hop, plug-and-play expansion.
• Installer-minded hardware: An ultra low-profile case fits tight spaces, and a locking power connector keeps the supply secure.
