Purpose-built capture for SDI workflows
The Inogeni SDI2USB3 converts 3G-SDI signals to USB 3.0 for recording, streaming or videoconferencing. It handles SD and HD formats up to 1080p60 and extracts embedded audio as two-channel LPCM. Driver-free UVC compliance lets it work with any DirectShow-compatible application on Windows, Mac OSX, Linux or Android.
Full-metal enclosure with active loop-through
A rugged aluminium housing protects the electronics while drawing power directly from the USB 3.0 port — no external supply needed. The single 3G-SDI input includes an active loop output so the source signal can continue to a monitor or switcher without degradation. Compact dimensions make it practical for portable kits or permanent rack installs.
Low-latency capture with minimal host load
Digital Fluid technology sustains full 60 frames per second over the USB 3.0 link while keeping CPU usage low. The device runs cool and silent because it has no fan, relying on the metal case for passive dissipation. Bus power limits total draw to the USB 3.0 specification, so it operates reliably on laptops and small-form-factor PCs.

Questions about this item
Does the USB 3.0 link limit the 1080p60 capture to a lower frame rate or colour depth?
No — the USB 3.0 bandwidth carries uncompressed 1080p60 in 4:2:2 8-bit without dropping frames or reducing colour information.
What physical space and mounting does the full-metal enclosure need?
The compact metal box sits on a desk or rack shelf and draws power from the USB 3.0 port, so no external power brick or mounting brackets are required.
Is any driver install needed before the first capture on Windows, Mac or Linux?
The device is UVC-compliant and driverless; plug it into a USB 3.0 port, select it in your DirectShow software, and it streams immediately.
