Blackmagic 2110 IP Converter 4x12G PWR

Build 2110 IP Video Systems for Broadcast, Live Production and AV!

Blackmagic Design has a wide range of SMPTE-2110 IP video products, including standards converters, video monitors, audio monitors and even cameras! Plus they support Ultra HD using low cost 10G Ethernet! Most converter models are bidirectional, so they’re fantastic to use on cameras when you need an extra program return! The rack mount models have an elegant design with a color LCD for monitoring, menus and diagnostics. All models conform to the SMPTE-2110 standard for IP video, including PTP clocks and even NMOS support so you can make connections using a video router panel.

Build Professional SMPTE‑2110 Broadcast Systems

The Blackmagic 2110 IP Converters have been designed to integrate SDI equipment into 2110 IP broadcast systems. The rack mount models can be installed in equipment racks right next to the equipment you’re converting. However with Blackmagic Studio Cameras, Blackmagic Audio Monitor 12G G3 and the SmartView 4K G3, you can build most of your SMPTE-2110 system without converters! Plus most Blackmagic SMPTE-2110 IP video products can be remote powered! Adding converters also means you get a low cost way to transform all your video equipment to SMPTE-2110. Simply add a Blackmagic 2110 IP Converter to live production switchers, disk recorders, streaming processors, cameras, TVs and more.

Conforms to the SMPTE‑2110 IP Video Standard

Blackmagic 2110 IP products conform to the SMPTE-2110 standard for IP video, which specifies the transport, synchronization and description of 10-bit video, audio and ancillary data over managed IP networks for broadcast. It can also re-sync SDI inputs to a common PTP clock or external gear can lock to the reference output that’s also generated from the PTP clock. Blackmagic 2110 IP products support SMPTE-2110-20 uncompressed video, SMPTE-2110-21 traffic shaping/timing, SMPTE-2110-30 audio and SMPTE-2110-40 for ancillary data. Plus Blackmagic 2110 IP products support multicast, which is an efficient way of distributing video, audio and data from a single source to multiple destinations.

Multi-Rate 12G‑SDI for HD and Ultra HD

Blackmagic 2110 IP video products, designed for advanced television production, also feature the latest 12G-SDI video connections. This means you can connect to traditional broadcast gear using SDI and new 2110 IP based broadcast systems with the same product! 12G-SDI is multi-rate, which means that a single video BNC cable can connect to any HD or Ultra HD equipment. You get support for 720p HD at both 720p50 and 59.94p. Plus 1080i HD interlaced standards in 1080i50 and 1080i59.94. 1080p support includes 1080p at 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 30, 50, 59.94 and 60p. The 12G-SDI also handles Ultra HD in all television standards including 2160p at 23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 50, 59.94 and 60p.

Uses Simple 10G Ethernet for Low Cost

Blackmagic 2110 IP Converters are available in models with RJ-45 connectors for simple Cat6 copper cables or SFP sockets for optical fiber modules and cables. Using simple Cat6 copper cables means you can build SMPTE-2110 systems at a dramatically lower cost. The cables are simple and Ethernet switches for 10G Ethernet are very common. In most cases, modern buildings already have 10G Ethernet cable installed, so you can use the cables you already have! Plus copper cables can remote power devices such as converters and cameras. There are also models for optical fiber Ethernet. Optical fiber at 10G speed is much lower cost than 25G or 40G Ethernet. You can even use 3G, 6G or 12G‑SDI SFP modules!
