When TV operate as a monitor for signals sent from an AV switcher or amplifier, the audio came out of the amp too. But nowadays, TV's are far more than just monitors: they're the epicenter of the streaming services- the source for the imagery AND the audio. Now the information is going out of the TV instead of into it. So how to you get the audio back to that nice remote 7.1 amp and in-wall speakers you installed 6 years ago? There is something called ARC (Audio Return Channel). This is supposed to output the audio signal through an HDMI cable to an amp. I bought converters to change the ARC signal to cat 5 and back again. (I only have cat5 in the walls) This did NOT work for me. And from what I understand, ARC tends to not work very well. These J-tech boxes do something similar, but they do it with the TV's optical audio signal output. It converts the optical signal to Cat5, then back to optical audio, then into the amp. The only issue is that you will have to provide power to the transmitter unit, which can be tricky in the spaces behind a wall mounted TV. No latency, sounds great, and fewer remotes on the coffee table. Highly recommended.

Worked perfectly for my client’s setup. I ran CAT6 from the patio TV to the living room Sonos Amp. The transmitter was connected using the digital optical output from the patio TV, feeding into the receiver at the Sonos Amp through the HDMI/optical adapter. The system performed exactly as needed.
