MultiView 16 SDI Monitor

The Blackmagic Design MultiView 16 HDL-MULTIP6G/16 is a 1U rack-mount signal router that lets operators view up to sixteen SDI sources on a single Ultra HD display. It accepts mixed SD, HD and 6G-SDI inputs and provides concurrent multi-view outputs over four SDI ports plus one HDMI type A connector. Professional broadcast and post-production facilities use it for confidence monitoring and quality control.

Suited for Multi-Source SDI Workflows

This unit suits engineers who need simultaneous monitoring of sixteen 10-bit SDI feeds with automatic format detection and frame re-synchronisation. It is not for installations that require IP-based video routing or compressed streaming outputs. Buyers who need more than sixteen inputs or integrated tally and intercom features should look at larger routing frames.

16-Input 6G-SDI Capacity

The defining specification is the sixteen 10-bit SDI inputs that each handle 270 Mb/s SD-SDI, 1.5 Gb/s HD-SDI, 3G-SDI and 6G-SDI rates with auto-switching. This input count and multi-rate support determine whether the unit matches the scale and signal variety of the intended monitoring task.

Questions about this item

Will the 16 6G-SDI inputs accept the 1.5 Gb/s HD-SDI and 270 Mb/s SD-SDI signals from my older cameras?

Yes, the 16 SDI inputs auto-detect and accept SD-SDI at 270 Mb/s, HD-SDI at 1.5 Gb/s, 3G-SDI and 6G-SDI, so legacy SD and HD sources connect directly.

How can I confirm the MultiView 16 is processing all 16 inputs correctly on my Ultra HD monitor?

The front LCD shows video status for each input; on the monitor you see 16 simultaneous views with labels, tally and audio meters updating at 48 kHz 24-bit.

What comes in the box and which cable must I source separately?

The package includes the MultiView 16 unit and a software CD; you must supply an IEC power cable for the 90-240 V AC input.
