Blackmagic Design Videohub 40x40 12G Zero-Latency Video Router

Support a mix of multiple video formats with the Blackmagic Design Videohub 40x40 12G Zero-Latency Video Router. Featuring 40 12G-SDI inputs and 40 12G-SDI outputs, this advanced router lets you route any combination of SD, HD, UHD 4K, and DCI 4K video. The Videohub 40x40 12G simplifies your workflow by centralising all SDI connections into one hub, allowing you to connect any video input to any output or a single input to multiple outputs, eliminating cable clutter and complex diagrams. Perfect for use with multiple HyperDeck recorders for redundant mastering, routing to streaming processors across broadcast platforms, or adding inputs to an ATEM switcher, this router is an essential tool for broadcast environments.

12G-SDI Multi-Rate Connections

  • Multi-rate 12G-SDI connections enable you to route up to 40 different video standards at the same time.
  • Supports up to DCI 4K60 video resolutions.
  • Provides 4:2:2 8 or 10-bit colour routing in any standard.
  • Works with 4:4:4 12-bit SDI up to DCI 4K30 for feature films.

SDI Reclocking

  • Reclocking on every 12G-SDI input regenerates the signal, providing the maximum video quality.
  • Reduces or eliminates signal loss and jitter when using longer cables.

Front Panel Controls

  • A sleek front panel offers multiple control options.
  • Buttons include assignable shortcuts and In, Out, Clear, and Take buttons.
  • The machined metal spin knob provides precise control using an electronic clutch.

Optional Hardware Control Panels

  • Compatible with both the Videohub Master Control Pro and the Videohub Smart Control Pro.

Flexible Control

The Mac and Windows-compatible Videohub Software Control provides easy-to-use touchscreen router control.

Built-In LCD

  • View your live input before routing the signal on the built-in 2.2" LCD screen.
  • Bottom labels enable you to scroll through your sources in alphabetical order.
  • Eliminates the need to add an external SDI monitor to your setup.
