Product description

An ideal distribution amplifier for connecting several devices to one SDI signal. Mini Converter SDI Distribution supports SD, HD and 3G-SDI with automatic input detection and provides 8 reclocked outputs. It even handles ASI. Embedded audio and ancillary data in the SDI signal are supported as a matter of course. The SD/HD version without 4K support comes at a lower price.

One SDI signal for eight devices

Distribute one SDI signal to eight reclocked outputs while keeping embedded audio, ancillary data and ASI.

1× SDI input8× SDI output3G-SDIReclockingPower supply included

A clean signal along the whole route

Every output follows the input format. A compact solution for control rooms, studios and mobile production.

Control room monitors

Distribute the program to several monitors at once.

Recording

Send the same signal to several recorders at the same time.

Broadcast trucks

The compact distribution amplifier fits even a small rack.

Savings

The SD/HD version where you do not need Ultra HD.

Eight outputs from one input

Mini Converter SDI Distribution splits a single SD, HD or 3G-SDI input into eight reclocked outputs. It detects the input format automatically and keeps embedded audio, ancillary data and ASI together with the picture.

Mini Converter SDI Distribution – Eight outputs from one input

A true 3G-SDI design

The distribution amplifier works with all SD and HD formats up to 1080p60 as well as 2K DCI and switches between them automatically; for 3G-SDI it supports level B. It is a sensible choice where you do not need Ultra HD and do not want to pay for the 4K model.

No setup needed

The distribution amplifier has no user controls: it detects the input format itself and matches the outputs to it. Just connect power and cables – thanks to reclocking and low jitter, longer cables can be used too.

In the rack, in the truck and outdoors

The Mini Converter range of converters is built for 24/7 operation: the compact metal body fits into a studio rack, an outside broadcast truck or a live sports event outdoors. The connections are easy to reach and use standard cables.

Connections

One side has five SDI outputs, the other three more SDI outputs, the SDI input and the power input.

About the Mini Converter range

The Mini Converter range is designed for professional broadcast, post-production and AV installations. A compact metal chassis, high-quality connectors and standard cabling make it dependable in studios, control rooms and mobile systems.

The converter has no user controls – it detects supported formats automatically and keeps picture and sound stable throughout the signal chain.

The electronics automatically handle supported SD and HD formats and, on SDI models, keep the signal stable along the whole chain. The result is a practical link between older and current equipment without needlessly complex infrastructure.
