Hall Research, SP-HD-8B, 8-Channel HDMI Splitter with Analog and Optical Audio Output and 4K Support
The SP-HD-8B is a compact 8-channel HDMI Video Splitter that can produce 8 identical outputs of DVI or HDMI input source for display on 8 outputs. It supports Full-HD (1080p) as well as 4K (UHD) video formats. Furthermore, the device extracts the audio from the HDMI input signal and outputs it as analog (L/R) stereo, and digital optical TOSLINK signals for connection to audio amplifiers, headphones, or other audio devices. If no output display is connected (or if both displays are tuned off), the SP-HD-8B will emulate a display (using EDID) so the source still outputs HDMI video and the splitter with extract and output the audio. It is HDCP compliant and supports HDMI 1.4 deep color, 3-D, UHD 4K/30, and handles all HDMI Audio formats. For convenience, a pair of mounting brackets and hardware are provided so it can be easily surface mounted.
