This compact soundbar connects to your TV exclusively through an optical digital audio cable — there is no HDMI port of any kind. The optical connection supports Dolby Digital 5.1 and DTS surround sound, but cannot carry Dolby Atmos or lossless audio formats. A 10/100 Ethernet port on the rear panel provides wired network connectivity for Sonos ecosystem integration. If your TV lacks an optical output, you will need a separate HDMI audio extractor to use this soundbar.
