WyreStorm Essentials™ Dolby™ & DTS™ 7.1 Downmixer
SKU: EXP-CON-H2-DD
The EXP-CON-H2-DD is the audio tool that everyone should have. A versatile offering loaded with powerful features. Take up to Dolby True HD or DTS-HD 7.1 audio signals from an HDMI source and downmix to RCA stereo analog. Featuring 18Gbps HDMI passthrough, easily transmit 4K HDR or Dolby Vision content to a connected display or AVR. If you have an older 1080p, don’t worry, as the HDMI output of the converter can scale 4K content to 1080p. If you need multi-zone audio downmixing simply rack mount up to 12 converters by using the NHD-000-RACK4.
4K HDR & DOLBY VISION
With an 18Gbps HDMI input, the EXP-CON-H2-DD supports video content up to 4K/60 4:4:4. Compatibility with the latest 4K specifications such as HDR10 and Dolby Vision ensures maximum video fidelity no matter the source you connect.
AUDIO DOWNMIXING
Powerful audio capabilities allow up to 7.1 Dolby True HD and DTS-HD signals to be downmixed to stereo RCA for multi-zone amplifiers. Audio can even be downmixed and de-embed simultaneously through the stereo and digital outputs.
RACK MOUNTABLE
The EXP-CON-H2-DD is compatible with the NetworkHD series of rack mounts. Easily mount up to 12 converters in the NHD-000-RACK4 or use the NHD-140-RACK-1U and place two converters side-by-side.
