Signal Stability Over Long Cable Runs

The converter maintains SMPTE 259M-C at 270 Mbit/s for 480i and 576i signals up to 300 metres. It carries SMPTE 292M at 1.485 Gbit/s or 1.485/1.001 Gbit/s for 720p and 1080i up to 200 metres. For 1080p it uses SMPTE 424M/425M-AB at 2.970 Gbit/s or 2.970/1.001 Gbit/s up to 100 metres.

Simple Inline Installation

Connect the HDMI source to the input and the SDI display to the output; the converter auto-detects the signal format. No external power supply is mentioned in the data, so verify whether your HDMI port provides sufficient current. Buyers needing 4K conversion or dual-link SDI will find this unit does not support those formats.

Questions about this item

Does the converter generate noticeable heat or fan noise when converting 1080p to 3G-SDI all day?

The unit is a passive adapter with no fan or active cooling; it draws minimal power from the HDMI source and runs silently during continuous 3G-SDI conversion.

What cables or power supply do I need to connect my camera's HDMI output to an SDI monitor?

You need an HDMI cable from the camera and a standard SDI cable to the monitor; no external power adapter is required because the converter is powered through the HDMI link.

Will my older SD-SDI recorder at 480i accept the signal from this converter?

Yes, the converter down-converts 480i or 576i sources to SD-SDI (SMPTE 259M-C) at 270 Mbit/s, compatible with legacy SD-SDI equipment.
