Compact 12G-SDI Router for Mobile Racks

The Blackmagic Design Videohub Mini 8x4 12G Router is a compact zero-latency video router built for mobile racks where space is limited. It handles any combination of SD, HD and Ultra HD signals simultaneously across its 8 inputs and 4 outputs. Front-panel controls provide immediate routing and video patching without external software. A USB-C webcam output sends video directly to a computer for streaming or recording.

Verify SDI Infrastructure and Rack Space

Confirm your existing cabling uses 12G-SDI connectors compatible with the 8 inputs and 4 outputs on this unit. Ensure the 2/3 rack width chassis fits the available slot in your mobile rack or enclosure. Check that reference connections are available if you require locked clean-switch outputs across the system. The router supports all SDI video standards up to 2160p60, so verify your sources and destinations match this range.

Re-clocking and Front-Panel Patching for Daily Use

Full SDI re-clocking regenerates the video signal on every connection to maintain optimal quality and prevent data errors during extended runs. Clean switching is selectable per output, allowing one destination to receive a clean-switched feed while another takes a direct cut from the same source. The front panel includes an emergency 12G-SDI patching input for quick temporary connections. External Ethernet control enables integration into larger broadcast automation systems.

Questions about this item

What cables or accessories are included with the Videohub Mini 8x4 12G, and do I need to buy SDI cables separately?

The router ships as the unit only; 12G-SDI cables for the eight inputs and four outputs must be purchased separately.

How do I decide between the 4x2, 6x2 and 8x4 Videohub Mini models?

Choose the 8x4 when you need eight 12G-SDI inputs and four 12G-SDI outputs in a 2/3 rack-width chassis; the smaller models offer fewer connections.

What does the 12G-SDI rating mean for the video formats I can route through this unit?

Each input and output handles SD, HD and Ultra HD up to 2160p60 simultaneously, with full re-clocking and clean switching on every output.
