Blackmagic Design - Micro Converter HDMI to SDI 12G

Micro Converter HDMI to SDI 12G is an ultra-compact professional video converter designed for connecting HDMI-equipped devices (such as cameras, computers, or media players) to broadcast systems with SDI inputs.

With a miniature yet broadcast-quality design, it features two 12G-SDI outputs that can be configured for Level A or Level B of 3G-SDI signals. It features a standard HDMI connection and two professional 12G-SDI connections for working with all NTSC, PAL, 720p, 1080p, 1080i, and 2160p formats, including 4Kp24/47.95/48 DCI.

Power it via USB from a laptop or phone charger!
