BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter (Active 1x2) Instruction Manual

1. ആമുഖം

The BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter (Active 1x2) is designed to distribute a single digital optical audio signal from one source device to two separate receiving devices. This active splitter regenerates and amplifies the audio signal, ensuring no loss in quality over longer cable runs, unlike passive splitters. It is ideal for home theater systems, gaming consoles, and other audio setups where simultaneous audio output to multiple devices is required.

2. സവിശേഷതകൾ

• Active Signal Splitting: Converts one Toslink/SPDIF input into two identical Toslink/SPDIF outputs.
• സിഗ്നൽ പുനരുജ്ജീവനം: Amplifies and regenerates the optical signal to maintain audio quality and integrity.
• Wide Audio Format Support: Compatible with Digital 5.1CH Dolby-AC3, DTS, PCM, LPCM2.0, ADAT, and supports sampling rates of 32kHz, 44.1kHz, 48kHz, and 96kHz.
• നീണ്ടുനിൽക്കുന്ന നിർമ്മാണം: Features an aluminum alloy shell, high-quality fiber optic core, and fiber optic heads for low attenuation and strong anti-interference.
• താപ വിസർജ്ജനം: Designed with 360-degree heat dissipation for reliable performance.

Note: This splitter does not support 7.1CH Dolby Digital Plus or Dolby TrueHD, as these formats cannot be transmitted via standard fiber optic cables.

The splitter is connected to a television, distributing amplified optical audio to a sound system (speakers and subwoofer) and headphones, enabling multiple users to enjoy audio simultaneously with enhanced signal quality. Logos for Digital DTS and Dolby are visible, indicating supported audio formats.

Active vs. Passive Splitters

Understanding the difference between active and passive splitters is crucial for optimal performance:

A diagram illustrating the difference between an Active Splitter and a Passive Splitter. The Active Splitter shows a Toslink input connected to the splitter, which requires a power supply, and then splits the signal to two outputs (headphones and speaker), regenerating and enhancing signal strength. The Passive Splitter shows a Toslink input splitting directly to two outputs, noting that it does not require a power supply but potentially weakens the signal.

A comparison chart detailing Active and Passive Toslink Splitters across categories: How it works, Power Supply, Cable Length, Compatibility, and How to choose. The Active Splitter regenerates signal with no loss, requires power (USB cable included), supports all cable lengths, offers wider compatibility and signal integrity. The Passive Splitter splits the signal potentially weakening it, does not require power, supports cable lengths up to 10ft, and may not work well with old devices, offering a simple, power-free setup.

4. സജ്ജീകരണ നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ

Follow these steps to connect your BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter:

1. ഉറവിടം ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Insert one end of a Toslink optical cable (not included) into the optical audio output port of your source device (e.g., TV, game console).
2. Connect to Splitter Input: Insert the other end of the Toslink optical cable into the 'IN' port of the BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter.
3. ഔട്ട്പുട്ട് ഉപകരണങ്ങൾ ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Insert one end of a Toslink optical cable (not included) into 'Output 1' of the splitter and the other end into the optical audio input of your first receiving device (e.g., soundbar, AV receiver).
4. Connect Second Output Device: Insert one end of another Toslink optical cable (not included) into 'Output 2' of the splitter and the other end into the optical audio input of your second receiving device (e.g., headphones base, DAC).
5. പവർ ബന്ധിപ്പിക്കുക: Connect the provided USB power cable to the splitter's power input port. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a USB power source (e.g., TV USB port, USB wall adapter - not included).
6. പവർ ഓൺ: കണക്റ്റുചെയ്തിരിക്കുന്ന എല്ലാ ഉപകരണങ്ങളും പവർ ഓൺ ആണെന്ന് ഉറപ്പാക്കുക.

5. പ്രവർത്തന നിർദ്ദേശങ്ങൾ

Once properly connected and powered, the BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter operates automatically. Audio from your source device will be simultaneously transmitted to both connected output devices.

• Source Device Settings: Ensure your source device's audio output is configured to 'PCM' or 'Bitstream' (Dolby Digital/DTS) as appropriate for your receiving devices. Some devices may require specific settings for optical output.
• വോളിയം നിയന്ത്രണം: Adjust volume levels independently on your connected receiving devices (e.g., soundbar, headphones).
• സ്വകാര്യ ശ്രവണം: Use the splitter to enable private listening through headphones while others can still hear audio through a soundbar or speakers.

8. പ്രശ്‌നപരിഹാരം

If you encounter issues with your BlueRigger Digital Optical Audio Splitter, please refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• ഓഡിയോ ഔട്ട്പുട്ട് ഇല്ല:
  • Ensure the splitter is properly powered via the USB cable.
  • Verify all optical cables are securely connected to the input and output ports.
  • Check the audio output settings on your source device (TV, game console). Ensure it is set to 'PCM' for stereo audio or 'Bitstream' (Dolby Digital/DTS) if your receiving devices support it. Some devices may default to formats not supported by optical output.
  • Test with different optical cables if possible, as damaged cables can prevent signal transmission.
• Poor Audio Quality or Intermittent Sound:
  • Ensure optical cables are not bent sharply or kinked, as this can damage the fiber.
  • Confirm that the optical cable ends are clean and free of dust or debris.
  • Verify that the power supply is stable.
• Only One Output Device Receiving Audio:
  • Double-check the optical cable connections for both output devices.
  • Ensure both receiving devices are powered on and correctly configured for optical input.
  • Confirm the source device's audio format is compatible with both receiving devices.
