What this KVM switch does

The YINGHUA unit extracts audio from an HDMI source and passes the video through to a display while sending sound to optical Toslink, stereo RCA or 3.5 mm outputs. It suits anyone who needs to separate audio for a soundbar, amplifier or speaker system from a PC, console or streaming box. It is not for buyers who need multiple HDMI inputs or switching between several computers.

Thermals noise and power

The adapter runs without a fan, so it adds no audible noise to a quiet room. Power draw is low enough that the supplied USB cable can power it from a TV or console port in most setups. No external power brick is required for typical 1080P sources, keeping the installation simple and silent.

Bundled accessories and modes

A USB power cable and an optical Toslink cable are included, so the extractor works out of the box with soundbars or AV receivers. A three-position switch selects PASS, 2.1CH or 5.1CH audio modes, letting you match the output to stereo speakers or a multichannel system without software configuration.

Questions about this item

How do I connect this extractor between my PS5 and TV, and which setting do people forget to match?

Link the PS5 to the HDMI input, run the HDMI output to the TV, then choose PASS, 2.1CH or 5.1CH to match your sound system; the step often missed is selecting the correct audio mode for the connected speakers.

What part will need attention after extended use?

The optical Toslink port and 3.5 mm jack can collect dust or wear from repeated cable changes; keep them clean and reseat cables if audio drops out.

What is the first limitation I will hit during a long gaming session?

Video is capped at 1080P resolution, so higher-resolution sources will be downscaled; audio supports up to 7.1 formats but the HDMI output remains 1080P.
