Blackmagic Design 2110 IP Mini BiDirect 12G SFP

Program return and talkback

The bidirectional design suits cameras: one direction carries the camera image, the other the program return. The five-pin XLR provides talkback between the camera operator and the control room without a separate communication converter; talkback runs on channels 15/16.

An optical model, not a PoE model

This model has a slot for an optical SFP module and is powered from the included 12V power supply; it does not use power over the Ethernet cable (PoE). Choose the SFP module according to the run length and fiber type.

Indicators and setup

LED indicators show IP and SDI signal lock and tally status. The converter detects SD, HD, 2K, Ultra HD and 4K DCI automatically and regenerates the SDI signal (reclocking); setup and updates use USB-C 3.0.

Standardized IP operation for SDI equipment

The Blackmagic 2110 IP range integrates SDI equipment into an IP video infrastructure according to SMPTE ST-2110. Transport includes 10-bit video, audio and ancillary data; PTP provides a common time base and NMOS allows routing in a larger managed IP system.

The Mini design can be placed right behind equipment. The converter responds automatically to a change of video standard and supports SD, HD and Ultra HD up to 2160p60. For higher Ultra HD frame rates, the Blackmagic family uses the open low latency IP10 codec.
