Embed audio into any SDI source in SD and HD formats up to 1080p60! Audio is input as balanced analog or AES/EBU using ¼ inch connectors from equipment such as mixers and analog decks. Mini Converter Audio to SDI is the ideal SD/HD SDI audio embedder for when you don’t need the cost of the Ultra HD model!
In addition to a dedicated SDI input the converter also features a redundant SDI input that allows you to run a back-up cable in case the first is lost in any way. This is useful in mission critical applications, especially outdoors or in crowded venues where there a higher chance of damage to the cable.
