Blackmagic Design Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 12G

The Blackmagic Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 12G is a compact, high-performance converter that seamlessly integrates SDI and HDMI equipment into the same production workflow. Designed for professional broadcasting, live production, AV installations, and filmmaking, it simultaneously converts SDI to HDMI and HDMI to SDI, supporting independent signal conversion in each direction for maximum flexibility. With support for SD, HD, and Ultra HD video formats up to 2160p60, the converter ensures exceptional compatibility with modern broadcast and production equipment. Because each conversion path can operate using a different video standard, it effectively functions as two converters in one, simplifying complex video setups while reducing equipment costs.

The converter also supports camera control conversion for compatible Blackmagic HDMI cameras, including the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K and 6K, enabling remote camera control when connected to SDI-based live production switchers for more efficient multicamera workflows. Designed for dependable professional performance, the converter features SDI re-clocking to maintain signal integrity over long cable runs, HDMI timecode support for improved synchronization, and embedded audio support on both HDMI and SDI connections, ensuring video and audio remain perfectly aligned throughout your production.

Its durable metal enclosure is built to withstand demanding studio and field environments, while integrated LED indicators provide instant visual confirmation of power and signal status for quick setup and troubleshooting. A convenient USB-C port allows the converter to be powered directly from compatible monitors, laptops, desktop computers, projectors, or USB power sources, providing flexible deployment in virtually any production environment. For permanent installations or standalone operation, the converter can also be powered using an optional Blackmagic power supply.

Whether you're connecting HDMI cameras to SDI switchers, linking SDI cameras to HDMI displays, or creating a hybrid broadcast workflow, the Blackmagic Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 12G delivers reliable, broadcast-quality signal conversion with professional-grade performance.
