Magewell Announces Feature-Packed, Plug-and-Play 4K SDI-to-NDI Converter
专业转换SDI 4K Plus easily and reliably connects SDI-based Ultra HD video sources into live video-over-IP production workflows
南京,中国(11月6日2018)
Magewell today introduced the second member in its 职业转换 family of standalone hardware 设备s for bringing traditional video signals into live, IP-based 广播 and AV infrastructures using NewTek’s royalty-free NDI technology. 新 专业转换SDI 4K Plus encoder converts SDI input signals up to 4K Ultra HD into full-bandwidth NDI streams with extremely low latency, enabling users to effortlessly connect SDI-equipped sources to NDI-enabled media networks, 设备和应用.
“We received tremendous response to the launch of our first 职业转换 model at the IBC Show, and we’re excited to expand the product line with the new 专业转换SDI 4K Plus,” said Nick Ma, CEO and CTO at Magewell. “Many video professionals would like to take advantage of the flexibility and efficiency of IP-based production, but have significant investments in SDI equipment such as cameras. 专业转换SDI 4K Plus helps them maximize these investments by providing an easy-to-deploy and reliable bridge between their existing products and the thriving NDI ecosystem.”
即插即用的 专业转换SDI 4K Plus supports video up to 4K at 30 frames per second with embedded audio over a 6Gbps SDI interface. Automatic input format detection and DHCP-based network configuration eliminate the need for manual setup. 用户可以简单地连接设备, and the encoder will convert source video automatically at its native resolution and frame rate. An SDI loop-through connection allows the input signal to be sent simultaneously to additional displays or equipment without external splitters or routers, enabling sources to be easily used in new IP workflows without disrupting the customer’s existing traditional video infrastructure.
For users wanting greater control of the conversion process and the rich features of the 专业转换SDI 4K Plus 设备, an intuitive browser-based interface provides access to status monitoring, advanced settings and FPGA-based video 处理. Functions such as up/down/cross-conversion, de-interlacing and image adjustments are performed directly within the hardware, reducing unnecessary network bandwidth and CPU usage to maximize resource availability for other applications in the NDI workflow.
的 专业转换SDI 4K Plus offers a wide range of valuable features for live production use. 的 compact 设备 features a 1/4"-20 thread for use with standard camera-mounting accessories, while preview and program tally lights provide visual indication when the output NDI stream is being used by another application. A PTZ camera can be connected to the converter and controlled via NDI, while power for the unit can be supplied via Power over Ethernet (PoE) or the included power adapter.
新 4K SDI model is the second offering in the 职业转换 product line. 它加入了最近推出的 Pro转换HDMI 4K Plus， which can convert HDMI inputs up to 4K at 60fps. 额外的 职业转换 models, including 1080p60 configurations for users not requiring 4K resolution, are also planned.
