HDMI In To HDMI and eARC Out - How Do I Do This?

I am running an Apple 4kTV into a LG OLED TV and have a Devialet Dione sound bar. The TV does not output eARC to the soundbar. How do I split the output from the Apple 4kTV to get both an eARC signal for the soundbar and HDMI signal for the TV? I looked on Amazon and I am unsure which splitter to buy. Your advice/guidance would be much appreciated.

Thanks Eric, but my TV does not have an HDMI output, only RCA and Toslink for audio. LG model OLED65CXPUA.

erik-squires, holmz, many thanks for your help, I had no idea HDMI 2 input is also eARC out, Pleased to report there is a very noticeable improvement in SQ going from toslink to eARC; crystal clear sound, wider dynamics and deeper bass. Next I want to work out how to get the Apple 4kTV to switch on/off the TV and Devialet soundbar. At present, I can switch on/off the Apple 4kTV from the remote and the TV, not the Devialet soundbar though. Once again, your help/guidance is always appreciated.
