Atlona HDMI 1.3 Audio De-Embedder Supports Lossless Audio

Atlona Technologies has launched its AT-HD570 HDMI 1.3 Audio De-Embedder, a device that can retrieve digital audio signals from any HDMI source.

The device will strip the audio signal to either Optical or Multi-channel stereo audio inputs, while the video remains on the HDMI cable.

The audio decoder supports:

• Uncompressed analog LPCM 7.1
• New lossless compressed digital audio
• Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio
• High-definition video up to 1080p

The AT-HD570, which also includes CEC bypass and video pass-through, supports digital video formats in Deep Color Mode from 25MHz to 6.75GHz for 36 bits.

The AT-HD570 can also serve as a repeater and is HDCP-compliant. It doesn't scale or upconvert. The AT-HD570 is now available for pre-order. MSRP: $219
