The Blackmagic Design Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G lets you send 12G-SDI video over long distances using low cost optical fiber cables. It converts SDI to optical fiber and optical fiber back to SDI at the same time, so a single unit handles both directions of a bidirectional link.
The multi-rate 12G-SDI connections automatically detect the format and work with all SD, HD and Ultra HD equipment up to 2160p60, including Level A and B devices. An open SFP socket means you can fit any standard 3G, 6G or 12G-SDI optical module to match your cabling.
Key Features
- Simultaneous SDI to optical fiber and optical fiber to SDI conversion
- Multi-rate 12G-SDI supporting SD, HD and Ultra HD up to 2160p60

Send SDI Over Fiber
Convert 12G-SDI to optical fiber and back at the same time. Run video over long distances using low cost fiber cables instead of bulky copper SDI runs.
Multi-Rate Up to 2160p60
The connections automatically detect the input format across SD, HD and Ultra HD up to 2160p60. It works with Level A and B 3G-SDI devices as well as 6G and 12G equipment.
Open SFP Socket
Fit any standard 3G, 6G or 12G-SDI SFP optical module to match your cabling. The SFP module is purchased separately so you choose the right reach and connector type.
