Blackmagic Design - Mini Converter - SDI to Audio

The Mini Converter SDI to Audio allows the de-embedding of audio from any SDI source in SD and HD formats up to 1080p 60. Audio is output on ¼" connectors for balanced analog and AES/EBU audio output to equipment such as mixers, analog decks, audio monitors and more. 

In this case, this Mini Converter is the perfect solution without the cost of the Ultra HD model.
