Description

Key Information About the SDI Splitter Mini Converter SDI Distribution 4K

  • 1 reclocked SDI input to 8 identical outputs to distribute the same signal to multiple SDI devices without loss or jitter.
  • Compatibility with SD, HD, 3G, and 6G?SDI up to Ultra HD 2160p30 and 4K DCI 25p, with automatic detection and switching.
  • Support for ASI, embedded audio, and ancillary data for broadcast and live event workflows.
  • Flexible power supply (12?31 V DC) with international adapters, low power consumption of 4.8 W.

The 6G?SDI Reference in the ?Mini Converter? Family

A direct evolution of the 3G models, the Mini Converter SDI Distribution 4K adds 6G?SDI compatibility for Ultra HD/4K source distribution up to 30p. It naturally integrates into modern production chains where SD/HD sources coexist with 4K cameras/players, while maintaining the format and simplicity that have made the range renowned.

For Broadcast Control Rooms, Tours, or Studios Requiring Reliable Distribution

Ideal for television, live streaming, concert capture, fixed installations, and mobile control rooms, this SDI splitter ensures clean signal replication to feed mixers, recorders, monitoring displays, and converters in parallel. Automatic switching prevents any reconfiguration during format changes.

Features Designed for the Robustness of UHD Workflows

Internal reclocking and synchronization stabilize the signal over long cable runs, while 4:2:2/4:4:4, YUV/RGB compatibility and 48 kHz/24-bit audio preserve image and sound integrity. ASI support extends usage to broadcast applications.
  • Reclocking and synchronization for flawless outputs on 8 SDI ports.
  • Auto?sensing SD/HD/6G?SDI and 2K, UHD, and 4K DCI formats.
  • Compact chassis, universal power supply, and wide 12?31 V range for field use.
