Description
Product Overview
Magewell Pro Capture Mini SDI with Small Heat Sink is a compact one-channel Mini PCIe capture card for SD, HD, 3G, and supported 2K SDI workflows. It captures professional SDI video with embedded audio while providing a dedicated SDI loop-through connection for downstream monitoring or routing. Full 10-bit processing, multi-stream capture, long-distance SDI equalization, and ultra-low-latency operation make it suitable for embedded broadcast, streaming, recording, and custom video systems.
Compact Mini PCIe Form Factor
The 30 × 51 mm Mini PCIe board fits compact embedded computers, professional video appliances, and custom systems where a conventional full-size PCIe capture card is not practical. This listing uses the Small Heat Sink configuration.
SD HD 3G and 2K SDI Capture
Capture SD-SDI, HD-SDI, and 3G-SDI through the MMCX input, including supported 2K signals up to 2048 × 1080. RGB 4:4:4, YCbCr 4:4:4, and YCbCr 4:2:2 sampling are supported with 10-bit and 12-bit SDI input depth.
Dedicated SDI Loop-Through
A second MMCX connection provides SDI loop-through for passing the incoming signal to a monitor, recorder, router, or other downstream SDI device while the same source remains available to the host capture application.
Embedded SDI Audio Capture
Up to eight mono embedded-audio channels at 48kHz can be captured from the SDI source, supporting professional recording, streaming, monitoring, and custom application workflows without requiring a separate audio capture device.
Full 10-Bit Hardware Video Processing
Two onboard processing pipelines provide approximately 180 Mpixels/s each. Hardware functions include cropping, scaling, deinterlacing, aspect-ratio conversion, color-space conversion, frame-rate conversion, color adjustment, and OSD composition.
Ultra-Low-Latency Multi-Stream Capture
Ultra-low-latency capture is specified at 64 video lines. Multiple streams can also be generated from the single input with independent resolution, frame rate, cropping, aspect ratio, deinterlacing, color format, and color-adjustment settings.
MMCX SDI Input Loop-Through and Mini PCIe
Two MMCX connectors provide independent SDI input and loop-through connections. The included MMCX-to-BNC cables convert these compact board-level interfaces to standard professional BNC SDI connections.
The host interface uses PCIe Gen2 x1 within the Mini PCIe form factor, allowing professional SDI capture to be integrated into compact embedded computers and purpose-built video systems.
Embedded Broadcast Systems
Add professional SDI capture and loop-through to compact broadcast and production appliances.
Live Streaming
Capture professional SDI cameras and program feeds into compatible streaming and encoding applications.
Recording Appliances
Integrate SDI video and embedded audio into compact recording and ingest hardware.
Monitoring Systems
Capture an SDI source while maintaining loop-through connectivity for local monitoring or downstream equipment.
Systems Integrators
Build compact custom SDI systems using Magewell APIs and standard operating-system capture interfaces.
Custom Video Hardware
Integrate professional SDI ingest into purpose-built hardware where internal board space is limited.
