A Mini Converter Designed for SDI Distribution in Professional Environments

The Mini Converter SDI Distribution is part of the Mini Converter range, designed to meet the demands of broadcast and live production: stability, quick setup, and reliable daily operation. Its mission is clear: to take a single SDI source (SD, HD, or 3G-SDI) and cleanly duplicate it to eight outputs, maintaining an identical signal across the entire control room. It is a relevant solution when working in SD, HD, or 2K without the need for Ultra HD, and when you want a clean, readable, and standardized distribution.

A 1x8 SDI Distributor for Control Rooms, Studios, and Streaming

This distribution converter is intended for studios, TV sets, OB vans, theaters, houses of worship, and streaming setups relying on an SDI infrastructure. It allows simultaneous feeding of a video mixer, monitoring monitors, a recorder, additional converters, or routers, while keeping synchronized outputs to facilitate operation. In practice, it becomes a central point in workflows when multiple operators or machines need to access the same master without patchwork or risky splitting.
