Description
Convert SDI video to an NDI stream with the Pro Convert SDI 4K Plus video signal converter from Magewell. Pro Convert SDI 4K features one SDI input and one SDI loop-through output with eight channels of embedded audio, and it supports SDI input up to DCI 4K 4096 x 2160 video at 30 fps. The RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet port supports encoded NDI output up to DCI 4K 4096 x 2160 8-bit 4:2:2 video at 30 fps. The SDI loop-through allows you to view your input on a monitor while your NDI-encoded stream can be sent to a variety of NDI-compatible encoding or streaming applications such as OBS, XSplit, vMix, Wirecast, and others via Ethernet. The mini DIN-8 tally/PTZ port provides tally input to pass-through as well as for use with the unit's status LEDs. The LEDs also indicate power, output, and input signal status. The unit is powered by a 5V power adapter connected to its USB 2.0 Type-B port or via PoE over its RJ45 port. The Pro Convert can be managed with a web UI to configure settings and to perform firmware updates via the USB port. A 1/4"-20 mounting thread allows you to mount the unit in a rack, with a bracket, or on a stand. Included with the Pro Convert are a USB cable, a 5V power adapter, a mini DIN-8 cable, and an L-bracket for mounting.Key Features One SDI input, one SDI loop-through output with embedded audioConvert one SDI signal with 16 channels of embedded mono audio to an NDI streamSupports up to 4K30 input; supports 2K and 4K modeSupports up to 8-bit 4:2:2 DCI 4K 4096 x 2160 video at 30 fps encoded NDI outputUSB 2.0 Type-B 5V power and PoE via RJ45 portMini DIN-8 PTZ/Tally portSupport for NDI 3.xIntegrated cable equalizer supporting cable lengths up to 492' for 3G-SDI signalsSupport for SD/HD/3Ga/3Gb/3Ga-DL/3Gb-DS/6G (SMPTE 2081) standardsSupport for RGB 4:4:4, YCbCr 4:4:4, YCbCr 4:2:2 color samplingSupport for 10-bit and 12-bit color depthSupport for extraction of SMPTE 352 payload identifierSupport for extraction of audio formation information & channel status dataLimited support of 3Gb-DS: only the first stream can be capturedLimited support for capture of the first link of dual link interfaces:YCbCr 4:2:2 10-bit 1080p 50/59.94/60: captured as 1080i 50/59.94/60YCbCr 4:4:4 10-bit: captured as 4:2:2RGB 4:4:4: R/B sub-sampledVideo Processing Features Video brightness, contrast, saturation, hue adjustmentVideo deinterlacingTop field onlyBottom field onlyVideo aspect ratio conversionAuto or manual selection of output aspect ratioVideo color format conversionAuto or manual selection of input color format and quantization rangeAuto or manual selection of output color format, quantization range, and saturation rangeSupport for RGB, YUV BT.601, YUV BT.709, YUV BT.2020 input color formatsSupport for YUV BT.601, YUV BT.709, YUV BT.2020 output color formatsSupport for Limited or Full quantization rangeSupport for Limited, Full, and 'Extended Gamut' saturation rangeVideo frame rate conversionVideo mirror flipNDI Source Name Support for setting the device name shown in the system using Web UI.
