The Vizrt TriCaster Vizion 16 SDI I/O is a 2RU live production switcher built for large NDI and SDI workflows where input count, routing flexibility, and operator access matter. It supports 44 simultaneous external video inputs, UHD sessions up to 2160p59.94, and configurable SDI connectivity for hybrid broadcast production. For sports broadcasting, live events, corporate communications, and remote production, it puts switching, audio, graphics, recording, and contribution tools in one production platform.

12G-SDI Production I/O

16 Configurable SDI I/O for Hybrid NDI Production

Configurable SDI I/O lets the 16-port hardware version assign local connections as inputs or outputs around the needs of the show. Vizrt's September 2026 specification states that this 16-I/O system supports six 12G connections, while the remaining configurable ports support the applicable 3G/HD-SDI formats. That flexibility is useful when a control room mixes baseband cameras, NDI sources, multiviews, and program feeds in the same production.
