Blustream Advanced HDMI Signal Manager with Audio Return

Blustream Advanced HDMI Signal Manager with Audio Return

The SM11ARC is an advanced HDMI signal-management tool designed to resolve EDID, HDCP, handshaking, clock-stretching, and compatibility problems in professional AV installations. It supports HDMI 2.0 video up to 4K UHD at 60Hz 4:4:4 with HDR and HDCP 2.3.

The unit can operate as an HDMI audio embedder or de-embedder. Analog stereo audio can replace the original HDMI audio, while audio from the HDMI signal can be extracted simultaneously through analog and optical outputs.

ARC support allows audio from a compatible display to be returned through the HDMI output connection and extracted through the optical S/PDIF port. This makes the SM11ARC useful for troubleshooting, audio integration, and installations where display audio must be routed to an external system.
