Key Features
Four Conversion Modes
Auto Select, HDMI > SDI, SDI > HDMI & SDI (with reclocking), and HDMI > HDMI & SDI. One box, every direction your signal needs to go.
Multi-Format SDI
Supports 3G Level A and B, HD-SDI, and SD-SDI up to 1080p60. Handles the sub-standard differences that trip up cheaper units.
Active SDI Reclocking
Mode 3 outputs a reclocked SDI loop alongside the HDMI output — keeping your downstream signal clean over longer cable runs.
USB Powered
Draws 5V from any camera, laptop, or field monitor port. The same connection handles firmware updates and software control.
Ultra-Compact Build
Just 2.4 x 2.9 x 0.9 inches. Rugged enough for mobile rigs and OB trucks. Light enough to forget it's in your pocket.
3-Year Warranty
Decimator backs every MD-LX with a full 3-year manufacturer warranty. This isn't a throwaway adapter — it's a permanent piece of your kit.
Conversion Modes
01
Auto Select
HDMI ⇆ SDI
Bi-directional — active when both inputs are present simultaneously. Converts in both directions at once.
02
HDMI to SDI
HDMI In → SDI Out
Single direction. Feed HDMI sources directly into your professional SDI signal chain.
03
SDI Loop + HDMI
SDI In → HDMI & SDI Out
Outputs HDMI plus a reclocked SDI loop. Keeps downstream SDI signal clean.
04
HDMI Split
HDMI In → HDMI & SDI Out
Splits one HDMI input to both HDMI and SDI outputs simultaneously.
Real-World Applications
Signal conversion problems don't wait for a convenient time. They happen mid-shoot, during a live broadcast, or right before you hit record.
The MD-LX is built for that reality — no menus to dig through, no complicated setup. Plug it in, select your mode, get back to work.
01
Broadcast Production
Integrate HDMI cameras and consumer gear into professional SDI signal chains without re-racking your entire setup.
02
Live Events & Streaming
Convert SDI sources to HDMI for capture cards, monitors, and switchers — OBS, vMix, Wirecast, all of it.
03
Field Monitoring
Drive HDMI field monitors directly from SDI cameras without building an adapter chain in your rig.
04
Post-Production
Bridge format gaps in edit suites without re-patching your entire rack or pulling signal from the wrong port.
3
Year
Full Manufacturer Warranty
Decimator builds gear for the long haul. Every MD-LX ships with a 3-year warranty — engineered to perform under pressure, day in and day out.
