Blackmagic Design Micro Converter Overview

Connect your SDI and HDMI components with ease using the Blackmagic Design Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 3G. This small, bidirectional converter can convert SDI to HDMI and vice versa, even when using different standards. It supports resolutions up to DCI 2K in SDI and 1080p60 in HDMI. It also offers camera control conversion for Blackmagic HDMI cameras like the BMPCC 4K or 6K, allowing you to use them with an SDI-based live switcher. Other features include HDMI timecode support, SDI re-clocking for stability over long cable runs, support for a wide range of pro broadcast resolutions including cine-style 48 fps, and both HDMI and SDI embedded audio input and output.

This pocket-sized converter features a sturdy metal housing with power and signal LED status indicators and rugged connector interfaces. A USB Type-C port enables the BiDirectional SDI/HDMI converter to easily connect to and be powered by large-screen monitors, laptops, desktop computers, or projectors.
