Description
The HDMI to Dual 3G-SDI Converter (Pass-Through) is a professional broadcast-grade interface converter engineered for high-reliability Pro AV and live production workflows.
Powered by an advanced, state-of-the-art FPGA video processing engine, this high-performance unit seamlessly converts a single HDMI input signal into 2 identical, synchronized 3G/HD/SD-SDI outputs without signal delay or quality degradation.
Featuring built-in cable equalization, SDI re-clocking, and full audio-video synchronization, it ensures robust signal integrity for ultra-long-distance transmission up to 150 meters (492 ft).
With support for full HD resolutions up to 1080p@60Hz, RGB 4:4:4 / YUV 4:2:2 color spaces, embedded HDMI audio pass-through, and a USB Type-C port for firmware updates, this converter is a compact and reliable workhorse for broadcast studios, live events, and commercial installations.
