FAQ

Will this converter work with any HDMI port?

The device requires an HDMI port that displays the eARC or ARC logo. Standard HDMI ports without eARC/ARC support will not transmit the necessary audio signal.

Can I control volume through my TV remote?

Volume control via CEC is not supported because optical fiber does not carry volume commands. You will need to adjust volume on the connected audio device.

Is there any noticeable audio delay?

The converter processes audio in real time, delivering virtually zero latency, making it suitable for gaming and live TV watching.

What cable length can I use?

Standard optical cables up to 10 meters (33 feet) work reliably; longer runs may require a signal booster.

Does the unit require external power?

No external power source is needed; the converter draws power directly from the HDMI eARC/ARC connection.
