Blackmagic Design DeckLink Mini Monitor 4K
This is a low-profile PCIe playback card with 6G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 connections. It lets you monitor video formats up to 2160p30 from a computer. The card supports high dynamic range playback and Rec. 2020 color space metadata over HDMI. It is designed for professional video monitoring workflows.
Installation and common issues
The card fits into a PCI Express slot and includes two shields for full-height and low-profile brackets. Automatic format detection on the SDI and HDMI outputs handles switching between video standards. Driver installation via Blackmagic Desktop Video SDK is required for Mac OS, Windows, or Linux. Builders must confirm the host system has a compatible PCIe slot available.
Who this suits and who should look elsewhere
This card suits editors and developers needing a dedicated monitoring output for broadcast or grading workflows. It works for users building custom playback solutions using the provided SDK. Buyers who need capture or recording inputs should look elsewhere. Those requiring higher frame rates or resolutions beyond 2160p30 need a different product.

Questions about this item
How do I confirm the card is outputting 2160p30 correctly after installation?
Connect the 6G-SDI or HDMI 2.0 output to a compatible display; the card automatically detects and switches to the incoming video format, so a stable 2160p30 image with correct HDR metadata and Rec. 2020 colour space indicates proper operation.
What comes in the box and what must I source separately?
The package includes the low-profile PCIe playback card and two PCI Express shields for full-height and low-profile slots; you will need to provide a 6G-SDI or HDMI 2.0 cable and a supported display or recorder.
Should I choose the SDI or HDMI 2.0 connection for my 4K monitoring workflow?
Both outputs are active and auto-switching; use 6G-SDI for professional broadcast chains or long cable runs, and HDMI 2.0a for direct connection to consumer televisions or monitors that support HDR metadata and Rec. 2020.
