Blackmagic Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 3G

The Blackmagic Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 3G features custom hardware developed by Blackmagic Design and include features previously only found on high end converters. Micro Converter 3G models include features such as 3D LUTs and more video formats than the older models they replace.

The new Blackmagic Micro Converter 3G models are incredibly tiny broadcast video converters that let customers connect between consumer HDMI and professional SDI equipment. The rugged and miniaturized design makes them small enough to be used anywhere. Customers get professional 3G‑SDI connections for working with all SD and HD formats up to 1080p60. Micro Converters use USB for power, so they can be powered directly from televisions or laptop computers.

Use them for turning any computer display, television or video projector into high quality color calibrated broadcast monitoring. They’re also perfect for converting the HDMI outputs of computers and consumer video cameras to high end SDI equipment. Imagine using a slide show running on a computer for high end broadcast quality titles in live production. Customers could even use them for extending long HDMI distances using SDI.

Unlike other small SDI converters, Blackmagic Micro Converters feature the highest quality broadcast technology, miniaturized into an incredibly strong metal enclosure. Each converter has industrial standard 3G‑SDI and HDMI connections with strong high quality connectors. Blackmagic Micro Converters include a USB connection for power, as well as changing settings via the converter utility on Mac and Windows. Because the USB powers the converter, customers can even power it from televisions or laptop computers. There are even LEDs for power and video status.
