The Blackmagic Design OpenGear Converter Optical Fiber includes 10 crystal stabilized video reference outputs for referencing all the video equipment in your studio with either high definition tri-sync or standard definition black burst. Perfect for small studios or outside broadcasts.
Built-in AES/EBU or Analog Audio
Blackmagic OpenGear Converters feature 24-bit analog and 24-bit digital audio. You can select either analog or AES/EBU digital audio via mini switches, or remotely via the DashBoard network control software. Blackmagic OpenGear Converters will then switch to use either analog or AES/EBU digital audio. Blackmagic OpenGear Converters support the standard 2 ch and 4 ch audio rear modules, so they can be used with other brand OpenGear products.
Auto Switching SD and HD
Blackmagic OpenGear Converters instantly switch between all SD and HD video formats the instant the video input changes. A huge range of standards are supported and new formats can be added via USB.
Multi-rate 3G-SDI
The 3G-SDI connections built into Blackmagic OpenGear Converters are multi-rate so they can automatically detect and switch between all SD and HD video formats and standards up to 1080p60. That also makes them fully compatible with all your SD and HD equipment.
Redundant SDI Input
Blackmagic OpenGear Converter models SDI to Analog and SDI to Audio, feature a unique redundant SDI input for mission-critical or live broadcast tasks. Simply connect a redundant cable to the second input and if the main SDI input is lost, Blackmagic OpenGear Converters will automatically switch over in an instant. A loop-through SDI output is also provided for connecting to other devices. You can also loop to other Blackmagic OpenGear Converters when de-embedding more audio channels.
Hardware Down Converter
If you have older standard definition analog equipment in your facility then you'll know how hard it is when modern SDI equipment unexpectedly changes between SD and HD. Blackmagic OpenGear Converter SDI to Analog includes an incredible quality HD down converter that automatically adapts to the SDI input video format and outputs standard definition analog video in letterbox, anamorphic 16:9 or center cut 4:3.
High Quality
Blackmagic OpenGear Converters are built to the highest quality standards with low SDI jitter. You get the longest SDI cable lengths combined with ultra low noise analog video and audio for a true broadcast quality solution.
Easy to Use
Blackmagic OpenGear Converters are familiar and easy to use. With 3G-SDI technology, every card is fully compatible with all of your SD and HD equipment. Blackmagic OpenGear Converters can be set up via mini switches, the software DashBoard, or via USB using Blackmagic Design's Converter Utility. That's three completely different ways to configure them, so you're never stuck in a critical live situation.
