Using a
DVI source with an HDMI display has always been difficult because DVI only passes video, and
HDMI passes both video and audio. With most DVI to HDMI adapters you can only pass the video, and the HDMI audio channel is left unused.
Gefen bridges this common gap with the Gefen DVI Audio to HDMI Adapter. Connect your digital audio SPDIF - Sony/Philips Digital Interface Format) and your DVI video source to the adapter. The adapter encodes the digital audio into HDMI audio format and combines it with the DVI signal to produce a neat and convenient HDMI audio/video signal that can be used on any HDMI display device.
Set-up is Easy
Simply connect your digital audio device to the Gefen DVI Audio to HDMI adapter using your own SPDIF cable. Connect your DVI source using the included DVI cable. Then, connect your HDMI display to the adapter, and power the adapter on (5V power supply is included). It is that easy. You will enjoy video and audio on your HDMI display from your DVI source in minutes.
