About Hall Research HD-AUD-IO
How the HD-AUD-IO HDMI 2.0 Audio Inserter & Extractor revolutionizes your audio and video experience is through its high-definition capabilities and versatile functionality. This durable and high-quality device is a comprehensive HDMI audio manager, adept at both extracting audio from (de-embedding) and inserting audio into (embedding) an HDMI video signal.
The HD-AUD-IO HDMI 2.0 Audio Inserter & Extractor is equipped with one HDMI input and a corresponding HDMI output. It efficiently extracts the HDMI input audio signal to both 2-channel L/R analog and Digital SPDIF (TOSLINK), providing a clear and high-quality output. This reliable device also offers two audio inputs, both analog and digital, giving users the flexibility to select the audio to be embedded in the HDMI output. This could be the original HDMI audio (pass-thru), SPDIF digital, or 3.5mm L/R analog.
One of the standout features of this compact device is its advanced EDID management, which allows users to control both the video and audio parts of the EDID. The EDID presented to the video source connected to the HDMI input can either pass from the downstream device or emulate an EDID from internal memory. The device also has the capability to "Learn" the EDID connected to its HDMI output.
Supporting a video bandwidth of 18 Gbps and resolutions up to 4K at 60 Hz 4:4:4 with HDR, the HD-AUD-IO HDMI 2.0 Audio Inserter & Extractor ensures a top-notch viewing experience. It supports HDCP 2.2 as well as HDCP 1.4 if needed. This user-friendly device also has the unique ability to generate and output a blank HDMI signal with audio embedded, even if there is no HDMI input. This feature, often referred to as "HDMI Audio Bridging", is a convenient way to distribute audio-only signals over an HDMI network.
Additionally, the HD-AUD-IO HDMI 2.0 Audio Inserter & Extractor features a configurable digital input terminal that can mute the audio and/or video, providing users with more control over their audio and video systems. This versatile device is an excellent choice for users who need to connect multiple devices to their audio and video system, making it a valuable addition to any home or professional setup.
