Compact black converter box with BNC and HDMI ports

STARTECH

STARTECH SDI2HD camera accessory 3G SDI to HDMI converter with SDI loop through 755 ft 230 m

SKU CH-9Z49-0RDE5 MPN SDI2HD

Converts a 3G-SDI video source to an HDMI display while providing an SDI loop-through output for distances up to 755 ft (230 m)

  • Connect HDMI displays to SDI video sources with 3G-SDI conversion
  • Extend SDI signals up to 755 ft (230 m) without signal loss
  • Loop-through SDI output sends video to a second display simultaneously
  • Plug-and-play operation requires no software or driver installation
  • Compact metal enclosure shields against EMI for reliable performance

SDI-to-HDMI conversion for video workflows

This converter connects a 3G SDI video source such as a professional camera to an HDMI display. It accepts a single BNC input and provides both an HDMI output and an SDI loop-through output so the original signal can continue downstream. The unit is aimed at broadcast, live-production and post-production environments where SDI and HDMI equipment must interoperate. No drivers or software are required for basic operation.

Signal reach and power characteristics

The device supports cable runs of 755 ft (230 m) on the SDI side, allowing long-distance transport from camera to converter. It draws power from an included external supply and operates without active cooling, so it adds no fan noise to a quiet studio or control room. Power consumption remains low during continuous conversion and loop-through use.

Compact metal enclosure with BNC and HDMI ports

A rugged metal housing protects the internal circuitry and provides EMI shielding for clean signal transmission. The BNC connectors lock securely to prevent accidental disconnects during live shoots, while the HDMI port uses a standard friction fit. Mounting holes on the chassis allow the converter to be screwed to a rack shelf, camera rig or wall plate for permanent installations.

Questions about this item

How do I install the SDI2HD converter and what step is often missed?

Connect the SDI source to the BNC input, link the HDMI display to the HDMI output, then apply power; the step often missed is using the loop-through BNC to continue the SDI signal to another device.

What maintenance or replacement will the SDI2HD need over time?

The unit has no user-serviceable parts; plan to replace the external power supply if it fails and reseat BNC cables if signal loss appears after frequent connects.

What limit appears first on the SDI2HD during sustained operation?

The 3G-SDI signal path is rated to 755 ft (230 m); cable runs beyond that distance will show bit errors before the converter itself overheats.
