Blackmagic Design SDI Expander 8x12G
The Blackmagic Design SDI Expander 8x12G is a 1 RU bidirectional SMPTE 2110 IP converter designed to integrate 12G-SDI infrastructure into high-bandwidth 100GbE broadcast systems. Supporting up to 16 channels of simultaneous 10-bit 4:2:2 video conversion, the unit converts eight independent 12G-SDI inputs to SMPTE 2110 IP while concurrently converting eight SMPTE 2110 IP streams back to 12G-SDI outputs. Dual 100GbE QSFP28 connections provide SMPTE ST 2022-7 redundancy, ensuring uninterrupted signal delivery across IP-based production workflows.
Engineered for hybrid SDI/IP environments, the expander supports SD, HD, and Ultra HD formats up to 4K60 with automatic detection, along with 16 channels of embedded audio per 2110 IP video stream. A front-panel 2.2" LCD with integrated control knob and buttons enables real-time monitoring of video, audio, and system parameters, while a built-in speaker and headphone output allow for direct audio confidence monitoring. External control is supported via a dedicated RJ45 for NMOS-based configuration and USB-C for setup and firmware updates, with dual IEC power inputs ensuring power redundancy for reliable performance.
