BENESTON VCF-009T HDMI to 12G-SDI Converter 3840x2160 60Hz 59.94

HDMI 2.0 to 12G-SDI Conversion

The BENESTON VCF-009T converts an HDMI 2.0 source to a 12G-SDI signal with up to 12Gbps bandwidth. It accepts input resolutions up to 3840x2160 at 60Hz and 59.94Hz. The unit supports HDCP 2.2 and 1.4 compliance and embeds PCM 2.0 audio at 16 to 24-bit depth and 48KHz sample rate. It suits broadcast engineers and streaming professionals linking consumer HDMI gear to professional SDI infrastructure.

Replaces Separate Scaler and Distribution Amp

This converter replaces a chain of individual format converters, scalers and distribution amplifiers by handling HDMI to SDI translation in a single step. It outputs backwards compatible 6G-SDI, 3G-SDI and HD-SDI signals from the same 12G engine. The jump is worth it when a workflow demands uncompressed 2160p60 transport over a single coaxial run without adding latency or extra power supplies. It is not for installations requiring multi-channel audio embedding beyond two-channel PCM or fibre-optic transport.

Fits Rack or Portable Kit with Included Power

The device operates from the supplied DC 12V 2A adapter and requires no additional drivers or software configuration. EDID emulation ensures stable handshake with cameras, switchers or capture cards at the HDMI input. Its compact metal chassis integrates into OB vans, fly-packs or fixed racks without forcing a redesign of cable looms. It frees up SDI router ports by consolidating HDMI sources into native 12G-SDI feeds.
