Compact and Built for the Field

Measuring just 2/3 of a standard rack width, the Videohub Mini 8x4 12G is designed for tight setups—flypacks, post suites, broadcast trucks, and control rooms. Its rugged all-metal chassis stands up to field use, and the front panel gives you instant access to 12 routing presets for quick changes on the fly. A mirrored SDI monitor output lets you view any routed signal without disrupting your main feeds.

12G-SDI Power with Full Format Support

Every input and output supports 12G-SDI, allowing you to route a wide range of formats—from standard definition up to full 4Kp60—without converters. It supports SMPTE 259M, 292M, 424M, 425M, and 2082-10 standards, and auto-detects input formats to make setup fast and reliable.

Built-in SDI re-clocking on all outputs ensures clean, jitter-free signals over long cable runs, making it ideal for professional production chains.

USB-C Webcam Out for Streaming

One standout feature is the USB-C port, which turns any SDI source into a webcam-compatible feed. It works seamlessly with Zoom, Microsoft Teams, OBS, Skype, and other video conferencing platforms. Perfect for hybrid events or streaming workflows—just plug in your SDI camera and go live.

Control Options for Every Workflow

You can control the Videohub Mini directly from the front panel or remotely via Ethernet using the included Mac and Windows software. For larger or more complex setups, it's fully compatible with Blackmagic’s Smart Control Pro and Master Control Pro hardware panels.

Real-World Workflow Example

In a mobile production setup, a live event team uses the Videohub Mini 8x4 12G to route multiple camera feeds to a switcher and recorder simultaneously. The director monitors the output via the mirrored SDI port, while the producer sends one SDI source to Zoom using the USB-C port—bridging the live event with remote participants instantly.
