The Datavideo DAC-9P 4K converts an HDMI 2.0 source to two 12G-SDI outputs while keeping an HDMI loop-through available for another device in the setup. It handles DCI 4K up to 4096 × 2160p and UHD 4K up to 3840 × 2160p at 50/60 fps. Audio embedded in the SDI output can come from HDMI or from the two RCA analog inputs.

The Datavideo DAC-9P 4K converts an HDMI 2.0 source to two 12G-SDI outputs while keeping an HDMI loop-through available for another device in the setup. It handles DCI 4K up to 4096 × 2160p and UHD 4K up to 3840 × 2160p at 50/60 fps. Audio embedded in the SDI output can come from HDMI or from the two RCA analog inputs. Re-clocking regenerates the video signal, reduces jitter and supports longer SDI cable runs. Operation is plug and play, with no computer-based setup. HDCP protection may prevent some computers and MacBooks from passing a video signal through the converter.

Connect a 4K HDMI source to professional SDI equipment without a complicated setup.

The DAC-9P 4K carries HDMI video up to DCI 4K 4096 × 2160p and UHD 4K 3840 × 2160p. It converts the input to two 12G-SDI interfaces, with the output resolution matching the HDMI source automatically.
The HDMI 2.0 input can be converted to SDI while also being passed through to another device over HDMI. Embed audio from HDMI or choose the pair of unbalanced RCA L/R analog inputs for the SDI output.


Video regeneration reduces jitter. Combined with SDI cable-drive support, it helps maintain signal quality over longer cable runs.
HDCP and computers: The converter supports HDCP. Some computers and MacBooks may therefore be unable to pass video through the DAC-9P 4K; check source compatibility before connecting a computer.
The Datavideo DAC-9P 4K is a professional HDMI 2.0 to 12G-SDI converter that enables the integration of 4K sources into broadcast infrastructure. To ensure maximum reliability and functionality in a production environment, we recommend accessories for stable power supply, rack mounting, and audio synchronization.
Power and Mounting - Accessories for professional power supply in the field and fixed installation of the converter.
Audio Processing and Synchronization - Devices for audio processing and delay to ensure perfect synchronization with video (lip-sync).
Monitors and playback devices - Display equipment compatible with HDMI loop-out or SDI output from the converter.
System integration and communication - Components for integrating the converter into a broader production workflow and studio communication.
