Know before you buy
This module is specifically engineered for integration into the Theatrixx 8-Bay Reversible Rackmount Converter system. It relies on the rack's magnetic retention system for power delivery and does not function as a standalone unit without the rackmount chassis.
No, this module does not perform scaling or frame rate conversion. It is designed to pass the incoming signal through to the SDI outputs in its native format, ensuring the lowest possible latency.
The module supports high-bandwidth signals up to 4K (4096x2160) at 60fps. It is compatible with 12G, 6G, 3G, HD, and SD SDI standards.
The module features a reversible design that allows you to flip its orientation within the rackmount chassis. This provides flexibility in positioning your HDMI and SDI ports to better suit your cable management and workflow requirements.
Yes, the module includes HDCP support, allowing it to handle protected HDMI signals. Please ensure your downstream equipment is also HDCP-compliant to maintain the signal path.
The module supports embedded audio from the HDMI input, which is then passed through to the dual SDI outputs. It maintains the integrity of the audio signal without requiring additional cabling.
