Product Information

Blackmagic SDI Expander 8x12G

Blackmagic SDI Expander 8x12G converts in 2 directions at the same time! It converts 8 independent channels of 12G-SDI to SMPTE-2110, while simultaneously converting a separate set of 8 channels of SMPTE-2110 back to 12G-SDI. That's 16 channels of conversion in a single rack unit! The SMPTE-2110 connections use two 100G Ethernet ports for full SMPTE-2022-7 redundancy. There is also a separate NMOS control Ethernet port and dual redundant AC power supplies for reliable broadcast operation.

  • Connect 12G-SDI gear to 100G Ethernet SMPTE-2110 IP systems.
  • Supports 8 bi-directional connections and SMPTE-2022-7 redundancy.
  • 8 x 12G-SDI inputs and 8 x 12G-SDI outputs in a single 1RU design.
  • Redundant 100G Ethernet for full SMPTE-2022-7 compliance.
  • SDI connections switch between SD, HD, and Ultra HD.
  • Includes dedicated NMOS connection for routing IP sources.
  • Front panel LCD for monitoring of video inputs and outputs.
  • Front panel speaker and headphone for audio monitoring.
  • Dual redundant AC power supplies for broadcast reliability.
  • Localized for 13 popular languages allowing international use.
