Blackmagic Design Micro Converter BiDirect SDI/HDMI 3G PSU

The Blackmagic Design Micro Converter BiDirectional SDI/HDMI 3G is a single tiny converter that handles conversion in both directions at the same time. It can take an SDI input and output HDMI while simultaneously taking an HDMI input and outputting SDI, even when the two signals are in different formats. That makes one unit do the job of two separate converters.

This version ships with a mains power supply (PSU) for reliable standalone operation, while the USB-C connection can also draw power from a monitor, laptop or computer and is used for software updates.
