What it does

The Jansicotek HDMI Audio Extractor Splitter takes an HDMI source and separates the embedded audio for output through optical TOSLINK SPDIF or analog RCA stereo connectors while passing the original video and audio onward through its HDMI output. It is intended for users who need to route sound from a source such as a Blu-ray player, game console or streaming device to an amplifier, soundbar or AV receiver that lacks HDMI input.

Resolution and audio limits

Video support reaches 4K at 30 Hz with 36-bit deep colour and HDCP 1.4 compliance. The optical SPDIF output carries 5.1-channel Dolby Digital and DTS but not Dolby Digital Plus, while the RCA stereo output is limited to two-channel PCM. ARC is not supported.

Installation notes

Connect the source to the HDMI input, the display to the HDMI output, and the audio system to either the optical or RCA jacks, then select PASS, 2CH or 5.1CH mode with the switch. A red LED shows power and a green LED confirms a valid display link. Transmission distance is rated up to 49 ft with AWG26 cable.

Questions about this item

What does 4K@30Hz mean for my display?

The extractor passes video up to 3840×2160 or 4096×2160 at 30 frames per second, so a 4K TV or projector will show its native resolution but at half the typical 60 Hz refresh rate.

Which HDMI version and HDCP level limit the signal chain?

The box implements HDMI 1.4b and HDCP 1.4, so any source or sink that requires HDMI 2.0 bandwidth or HDCP 2.2 will fall back to 1080p or fail to display protected 4K content.

How much space and cable reach do I need to install it?

The unit is a compact black adapter that sits inline; with AWG26 HDMI cables you can run up to 49 ft between source and display while keeping the extractor powered and the LEDs showing link status.
