Blackmagic 2110 IP UpDownCross 12G is a professional standards converter for linking equipment with SMPTE-2110 video, 12G-SDI and HDMI. In a compact one third rack width unit it converts between SD, HD and Ultra HD, offers a reference input for built-in re-sync and redundant power from the mains and from 12V DC for critical operation.
Blackmagic 2110 IP UpDownCross 12G is a professional standards converter for linking equipment with SMPTE-2110 video, 12G-SDI and HDMI. In a compact one third rack width unit it converts between SD, HD and Ultra HD, offers a reference input for built-in re-sync and redundant power from the mains and from 12V DC for critical operation.
UpDownCross 12G unifies video standards in control rooms, OB trucks and studios – it converts between SD, HD and Ultra HD up to 2160p60 and syncs to reference.

The internal 100–240 V power supply is backed up by a 12V DC input, so the converter keeps running even if one power feed fails; power usage is at most 30 W.
The converter can be controlled over Ethernet from REST applications.
IEEE 1588 PTP v2 (ST 2059) synchronization and NMOS IS-04 and IS-05 connection management.
The front panel has a 2.2″ LCD display, three buttons, a spin knob, a speaker and a 6.35 mm headphone output; USB-C is used for setup and updates. The reference input and output allow built-in re-sync.

A 12G-SDI input with loop output, two SDI outputs, HDMI 2.0 input and output and 10G Ethernet give you the freedom to link sources across the infrastructure. SDI works at SD, 1.5G, 3G, 6G and 12G rates; for 2160p59.94 and 2160p60 the converter uses the Blackmagic IP10 codec.

The compact chassis, one third rack wide and 1U high, fits next to other converters. It is controlled from the front panel, over Ethernet from REST client applications or via USB-C with software for macOS and Windows.

The rear panel has an AC power input, a 12V DC power input, a 10G Ethernet port for 2110 IP, reference input and output, HDMI 2.0 input and output, a 12G-SDI input and loop output and two 12G-SDI outputs.

The converter suits live production and television broadcast: it connects existing SDI equipment to SMPTE ST-2110 systems and works with common HD and Ultra HD television standards over a single 12G-SDI BNC cable.
The IP stream carries 16 channels of embedded audio, SDI works with 16 channels and HDMI with 8 channels of embedded audio. The converter has access to ST 2110-40 ancillary data including RP 188/SMPTE 12M-2, closed captioning and HDR static metadata.
