1. INTRODUCTION

The SDI to HDMI Converter allows SD, HD and 3G-SDI signals to
be shown on HDMI display. This means that it is now easier for

professionals to distribute and extend their SDI signal while giving the

ability to display work on HDMI displays. Furthermore, thanks to L/
R audio outputs users can output audio in analog formats while the

loop-through 3G-SDI design benets users by letting them simultaneous

show content on both SDI and HDMI displays.

2. APPLICATIONS

• SDI signal loop-out and extension

• Converts SDI signal (SD/HD/3G) to HDMI

3. PACKAGE CONTENTS

• 3G SDI to HDMI Extender

• 5V/2.6A DC power adaptor

• Operation Manual

4. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS

• Source SDI input with an SDI cable and output to SDI and/or HDMI

displays with suitable connection cables.

2

5. FEATURES

• Supports SD-SDI, HD-SDI and 3G-SDI input signals with auto-detection

• Supports HDMI and SDI (bypass) output simultaneously

• SDI interface operates at bitrates of 2.970 Gbit/s, 2.970/1.001 Gbit/s,

1.485 Gbit/s, 1.485/1.001 Gbit/s and 270 Mb/s

• Converts SDI signal to HDMI:

1. SD-SDI (SMPTE 259M-C) to 480i/576i

2. HD-SDI (SMPTE 292M) to 720p@50/59.94/60, 1080i@50/59.94/60

3. 3G-SDI (SMPTE 424M/425M-AB) to 1080p@23.98/24/25/29.97/30/
50/59.94/60, 1080PsF@23.98/24/25/29.97/30

• Supports SDI input modes:

1. SD-SDI (SMPTE 259M-C, at bitrates of 270 Mbit/s)

2. HD-SDI (SMPTE 292M, at bitrates of 1.485 Gbit/s and

1.485/1.001 Gbit/s)

3. 3G-SDI (SMPTE 424M/425M-AB, at bitrates of 2.970 Gbit/s and

2.970/1.001 Gbit/s)

• Equalized and re-clocked loop output

• Alternative audio output to coaxial and analog 2 CH

• Supports SDI input/output distance up to 100 meters (3G-SDI), 200

meters (HD-SDI), or 300 meters (SD-SDI)

Note: Tested with Belden 1694A cable. Operating distances may vary

with other specications of cable.

Power LED: The LED will illuminate red when the device is

connected to a power supply.

2

Video Lock LED: The LED will illuminate green when both the input

SDI source and the output HDMI display have successfully sent and
received a signal.

3

Audio Lock LED: The LED will illuminate green when the input SDI

source has an audio signal and when the output HDMI/DVI display
is active.

4

HDMI/DVI LED: The LED will illuminate green only when connected

to an HDMI display. It will remain off when connected to a DVI
display. The device will read the output display’s EDID information
and automatically determine whether to send a HDMI or DVI
signal.

5

3G LED: This LED illuminate yellow when a 3G-SDI input signal is

detected.

6

HD LED: This LED illuminate yellow when a HD-SDI input signal is

detected.

7

SD LED: This LED illuminate yellow when a SD-SDI input signal is

detected.

8

Audio out R/L: Analogue audio output (L/R Stereo). Connect to an

amplier or recording device with a suitable analogue input.

SDI IN: Connect to the SDI output of the SDI source device.

Accepts SD,HD or 3G SDI signals.

2

SDI OUT: Provides a 'loop-through' SDI signal output for connection

to a SDI display or device. Can be connected to another SDI to

HDMI converter/extender to extend the signal or to connect to

multiple displays for mirrored output.

3

DC 5V: Plug the 5 V DC power supply into the unit and connect the

adaptor to an AC outlet.
