What is ARC?
ARC is an abbreviation of Audio Return Channel, also known
as HDMI ARC. It refers to one of the HDMI functions. When
you connect the unit to the terminal labeled “HDMI (ARC)”, the
optical digital audio cable that is usually required in order to
listen to sound from a TV is no longer required, and TV pictures
and sound can be enjoyed with a single HDMI cable.
