Extend SDI connections over extremely long distances – up to 10 miles – by converting to optical fiber using Blackmagic Design’s Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G.

This compact converter extends SDI connections over massive distances by converting SDI to optical fiber and optical fiber to SDI in both directions at the same time.

Using the Blackmagic Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G (SKU:CONVMOF12G) is an affordable way to increase camera coverage at live events because it lets broadcasters place cameras up to 10 miles away from their switchers, routers, and decks using low cost optical fiber cable.

That makes it ideal for placing cameras around any studio, for use at outdoor sporting events or even concerts and theatrical performances in large venues.With the bi directional quality of this mini converter, you can simultaneously send different video formats in different directions at the same time.

And the advanced 12G-SDI connections on the Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G are multi rate.

That means they automatically detect the video signal and switch speeds so they are compatible with all SD, HD and Ultra HD formats and equipment up to 2160p60, including Level A and B devices.The Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G features a standard SFP type socket that lets customers add any SMPTE compatible 3G, 6G or 12G-SDI SFP module.

Because it works with the same low cost optical fiber cables that are commonly used for computer networks, this type of optical fiber cable can be run much longer distances and is much more affordable than copper SDI cable.

For power, Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G includes a universal power supply with 4 international socket adapters so it can be used anywhere in the world.

It also features a screw lock connector that prevents the power cord from being accidentally disconnected.
