The new Blackmagic Mini Converter range are the worlds most advanced converters because they include the latest 6G-SDI technology, plus automatically detect the input video format
and instantly change between virtually all SD, HD and Ultra HD video standards! Simply plug in and Mini Converters will convert between your equipment all automatically!
The converter you need when
converting between Quad Link HD-SDI, Dual Link 3G-SDI and Single Link 6G-SDI Ultra HD equipment. Mini Converter SDI Multiplex includes 4 x 3G-SDI inputs and 4 x 3G-SDI outputs so it can convert
in both directions. Also converts between Dual Link HD-SDI 4:4:4 and Single Link 3G-SDI.
You get advanced features such as redundant SDI inputs, re-clocked loop outputs and full analog and AES/EBU audio inputs and outputs
so you can convert between formats as well as embed or de-embed audio all on the one converter! Choose from a range of 13 models depending on the conversion you need!
Easy To Use Features
Broadcast, post production and professional AV environments are built using SDI equipment and cabling. It's essential when converting to and from SDI that you maintain the
highest possible video and audio quality. Mini Converters are compact, affordable and easy-to-use. Settings can be changed quickly using built-in mini switches, and with a diagram showing
pin settings printed on the back you never need to refer to a manual! Mini Converters use standard broadcast video and audio connections, so you get the convenience and cost savings of using
your own cables!
Ultra HD and 6G-SDI Technology
Make the move to Ultra HD, the broadcast standard
of the future, easy! Be prepared now by installing equipment that is fully compatible with all your SD and HD-SDI infrastructure, but will also switch over to Ultra HD via 6G-SDI when you need to run
Ultra HD! This means you're ready for the future and can build your system with full Ultra HD compatibility! Ultra HD features an incredible 4 times the resolution of regular 1080 HD video for a
massive 3840 x 2160 frame size! Ultra HD is amazing! The advanced 6G-SDI design also means the new Blackmagic Mini Converters models perform better when used in SD and HD formats than simple HD only converters!

Standard Audio Connections
Mini Converters support embedded SDI and HDMI audio and several models let you separately
embed or de-embed analog or digital audio. Mini Converters support 24 bit analog and AES/EBU audio and use standard 1/4" audio jacks so you don't need custom cables! |
