Blackmagic 2110 IP SDI to HDMI 12G - Modular SDI 12G/SMPTE 2110 to HDMI 2.0 converter

Avacab Official Distributor

The Blackmagic 2110 IP SDI to HDMI 12G is a modular converter designed for integrating SDI signals into IP environments based on the SMPTE ST 2110 standard, providing efficient conversion to high-quality HDMI outputs. This device acts as an essential bridge, allowing the reception of IP video streams through its 10G Ethernet interface and transforming them into a 12G HDMI signal ready for display on compatible monitors and screens. Its primary role lies in monitoring within IP infrastructures, establishing a robust and reliable connection between the IP network and HDMI display devices.

Rack-mount for broadcast systems

This Blackmagic converter has been developed to integrate any 12G SDI or ST 2110 signal and convert it to HDMI. Its modular design allows for rack installation alongside the devices whose signals need conversion. The Universal Rack Shelf provides the ability to place up to three Blackmagic 2110 IP SDI to HDMI 12G units side by side, resulting in up to 3 independent input and output channels in just 1RU of space. The units can be controlled via Ethernet and are capable of processing signals from a wide range of equipment, such as switchers, recorders, playback servers, and internet streaming processors.

Compact modular design

The Blackmagic 2110 IP SDI to HDMI 12G features a compact design that facilitates installation in various production environments. Its front panel, though simple, likely includes LED indicators that provide crucial information about network status and signal presence, enabling quick and efficient monitoring. The device is configured intuitively through dedicated software or a web interface accessible via Ethernet or USB-C, simplifying parameter management and future updates.

10G Ethernet for multiple SMPTE 2110 IP channels

By adhering to the SMPTE ST 2110 standard, this converter ensures seamless interoperability with other IP broadcast equipment. This facilitates the creation of cohesive workflows where video, audio, and metadata signals are efficiently transported over IP networks. Compatibility with protocols such as IGMP v2 and the ability to adhere to NMOS IS-04 and IS-05 specifications for connection discovery and management, respectively, make it a key component for building flexible and scalable virtual switching matrices and IP signal distribution systems.

High-Quality HDMI Output with Embedded Audio

The converter's 12G HDMI output can handle a wide range of formats, including SD, HD, and UHD, as well as 2K and 4K DCI formats, ensuring compatibility with the latest display technologies. In addition to the video signal, the HDMI output also carries up to 8 channels of embedded audio, providing a complete solution for audiovisual signal monitoring. The inclusion of three-dimensional lookup tables (LUTs) allows for precise calibration of HDMI monitors, ensuring color representation faithful to the original source.

Advanced Extra Functionality

The Blackmagic 2110 IP SDI to HDMI 12G goes beyond simple conversion, offering additional features that enhance the user experience. The presence of balanced analog audio outputs via XLR connectors and a headphone output with level control allows for precise audio monitoring. The inclusion of a USB-C output with webcam functionality up to 1080p60 opens possibilities for videoconferencing or streaming applications based on the input SDI signal. The ability to receive and transmit up to 16 channels of IP audio via the 10G Ethernet connection further expands its versatility in professional IP audio environments.

Wide compatibility with SD, HD, 2K, UHD, and 4K formats

For standard definition (SD), it supports NTSC (525i59.94) and PAL (625i50) standards. For high definition (HD), it is compatible with 720p resolutions (at 50, 59.94, and 60 fps), 1080i (at 50, 59.94, and 60 fps), and a wide variety of progressive (1080p) and segmented (1080PsF) frame rates ranging from 23.98 to 60 fps. Additionally, it handles 2K DCI formats in progressive and segmented modes, with frame rates from 23.98 to 60 fps. As for ultra-high definition (UHD) and 4K DCI, it supports frame rates including 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 47.95, 48, 50, 59.94, and 60 fps.

Fail-safe power supply

The modular design of the Blackmagic 2110 IP SDI to HDMI 12G includes an AC power supply, eliminating the need for external transformers. Simply connect the unit to an electrical supply network. The universal power supply automatically detects voltage (110-240V), making it easy to use the converter anywhere in the world.
