Overview

The BG-8K-AE is a high-performance 48Gbps eARC audio adapter engineered to extract audio from an HDMI source or a TV with ARC/eARC functionality and route it to an AV receiver, soundbar, or stereo system.

Fully compliant with HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3, this adapter supports data rates up to 48Gbps, with resolutions up to 8K@60Hz 4:2:0 12-bit and 4K@120Hz 4:4:4 12-bit.

Designed for effortless integration, the BG-8K-AE includes advanced EDID management, cable equalization, and CEC control, allowing for volume and source control directly from the TV. Whether de-embedding full-quality Dolby Atmos/DTS:X audio to a SONOS ARC, Beam, or eARC-enabled sound system, or routing standard stereo to a 2.0/5.1-channel amplifier, this adapter is a versatile solution for both home theater and professional AV installations.
