BLACKMAGIC HDMI to SDI Mini Converter

Product Information

These converters are also commonly referred to as cross converters, down/up/cross (DUC) converters, up/down/cross (UDC) converters, standards converters, or scan converters.

This line delay offers up to 160 frames of delay adjustable in 1ms increments, four 3G-SDI delayed outputs, and one 3G-SDI non-delayed loop output. NDI is a royalty-free protocol released in 2015 that enables devices to send and receive compressed video, audio, and ancillary data over a LAN. It gained in popularity as one of the first reliable AV over IP solutions because of its royalty-free licensing model and compressed format, allowing it to run over simpler and low-cost networking infrastructure. Converters in this category convert HDMI to SDI and provide reliable ways to pass HDCP-encrypted content. Mini Converters are built to highest quality standards with low SDI jitter so you get the longest SDI cable lengths combined with multiple internal power supplies for ultra low noise broadcast quality analogue video and audio. Unlike other converters, Mini Converters don't use "low grade" video electronics just to save cost. Mini Converters feature the highest grade broadcast quality analogue audio and video electronics. In fact, Mini Converters uses the same analogue video design as our most expensive and award winning Multibridge Eclipse! That means you get the highest quality, all in a very affordable and incredibly compact unit. IMPORTANT: I always recommend scaler converters when converting HDMI signals from computers and consumer devices to SDI.version 1.4a (deep colour), type A connector. 24 bit (3x 8bit) and 30 bit (3x 10bit), deep colour; R,G,B / Y,Cr,Cb / X,Y,Z.

So, if you don't need 4K or UHD capability and don't need to deal with any rare or odd formats/standards, these are just about the best value out there. It supports full-bandwidth NDI in 4:2:2 8-bit, NDI|HX 2 and 3, up to 4 channels of embedded audio, embedding or de-embedding of two channels of analog audio, seamless switching output of up to nine NDI sources, DC or PoE power options, includes a front panel LCD screen and buttons for easy configuration, a bi-color tally indicator, and a USB port that supports PTZ control as well as Kiloview's intercom (KIS). Optional accessories: Fibre transmitter SFP module, to provide an SDI output over fibre. HDMI input: SDI video connections are switchable between standard definition, 720p, 1080i, 1080p and DCI highdefinition. SDI Color PrecisionTwo channels of audio can be de-embedded providing digital AES and analog audio outputs. Analog audio outputs have selectable full-scale range presets whilst the two selected audio channels can also be embedded into the HDMI output. Alternatively, eight channels selected from the input signal (8 audio groups in 64 channels) can be embedded into the HDMI output. Other features of CDH 1411 include individually selectable timecode burn-in, closed-caption burn-in, 16-channel audio metering, safe area markers, and metadata display. Because ST 2110 is defined and published by SMPTE, the leading authority for broadcast standards, it has become the de facto standard for AV over IP in broadcast production. Nobody offers Micro Studio for rental. They would also make no sense to own privately as they can't be used outside the yearly event. If you need, or ever plan on needing, 4K or UHD capability then this is a no-brainer. Just get it! (If you can find it)

Standard accessories: All yellobrik modules are supplied with a plug-top power supply, complete with UK, US, Australian and European plug fittings, and hook and loop pads for easy attachment to a suitable surface.

SMPTE 424M, SMPTE 292M, SMPTE 259M. 3G level A and B-DL and B-DS according to SMPTE ST 425-1 and ST 425-2 (3D) with image formats 1280 x 720 and 1920 x 1080. version 2.0b type A connector. 24 bit (3x 8bit) and 30 bit (3x 10bit), deep colour; R,G,B / Y,Cr,Cb / X,Y,Z. Apart from doing our own offline 6K/4K BM-Raw and UHD ProRes422HQ recording we also provide our 1080p25 signals to the a live video crew that uses an SDI ATEM. Typically, products with this capability and price point come along well after a technology or standard has matured. So the fact this is already here at this price is simply bonkers!
