Ideal for professional video and broadcast engineering applications, this handy converter enables you to connect an HDMI source to a 3G-SDI, HD-SDI, or SD-SDI display. This way, you can use a consumer electronics device or a camera with HDMI output in your SDI setup.

The affordably priced device supports an array of HD video formats and provides digitally pure HDMI-to-SDI conversion, ensuring no loss in the conversion for both video and audio signaling.

Use it in a TV studio, post-production, digital cinema, or AV application where you need to show uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source on a professional SDI monitor or connect an HDMI camera to SDI switching equipment.

It also features SDI loop-out via a second coax connector. This way you can display a video on two SDI monitors, one locally and the second one in another room. Or use the loop-out to daisy-chain to additional SDI equipment.

You can also combine it in an application with our 3G-SDI/HD-SDI to HDMI Converter (VSC-SDI-HDMI) to extend HDMI over coax.
The HDMI to 3G-SDI/HD-SDI Converter processes up to eight channels of audio, including 7.1-channel or 5.1-channel audio in addition to HDMI video. It can be used with surround sound or Dolby® TrueHD audio equipment.

For both older and newer SDI interfaces, the converter processes bit rates from 270 Mbps up to 2.97 Gbps.

Deliver live streaming, visually lossless quality video, and high-quality audio over IP.

Works as Encoder or Decoder
The H.264/H.265 HDMI over IP Encoder/Decoder is an HDMI over H.264/H.265 transceiver. This means it can be used as an encoder or a decoder based on the mode selected. It features one HDMI input, one HDMI output, and one Ethernet connection for simplified integration into your AV system. In encoder mode, the HDMI input will be encoded to H.264/H.265 and sent out to the Ethernet port. In decoder mode, the H.264/H.265 data will be decoded from the Ethernet port and sent out the HDMI output.

Live Stream Media over IP
Extend AV signals as far as your network reaches. This media encoder/decoder interfaces with HDMI signals to deliver media over your IP network. It features one HDMI input, one HDMI output, and one Ethernet port for simplified integration into your AV system.

Standardized Protocols
This encoder complies with standardized protocols so that it can work with third-party decoders, such as VLC software, STB, or a media encoder in another system. This allows you to choose the most suitable devices for your AV system.

Advanced Media Codec
The encoder features both H.264 and H.265 video compressing technology. This allows it to transmit video content with visually lossless quality without consuming too much bandwidth. On top of that, the encoder supports AAC audio encoding so a high-quality audio signal can be transmitted using low bandwidth.

Optimized Control Methods
This encoder offers a web UI that enables the user to control the system through a common browser.

Live Stream Media over IP Extend AV signals as far as your network reaches. This media encoder is a live streaming media encoder that interfaces with HDMI signals for delivering media over IP networks. It features four HDMI input(s) and one Ethernet output for simplified integration into your AV system. It can be used with the VS-2001-DEC decoder, or third-party decoders such as a set-top box, a VLC and Kodi media player on PCs to provide complete end-to-end streaming systems.

Standardized Protocols

This encoder complies with standardized and disclosure protocols so that it can work with third-party decoders, such as VLC software, STB, or a media encoder in another system. This allows you to choose the most suitable devices for your AV system.

MCX is a next-generation AV-over-IP solution from Black Box. MCX distributes and extends 4K 60 Hz video and audio over IP and is made for 10-Gbps network infrastructures.

Uncompressed 4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 Video

MCX delivers the video quality high-end AV applications require to display eye-catching content: It extends uncompressed 4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 video to an unlimited number of displays without sacrificing latency, video quality or bandwidth. Even better, it supports up to 10-bit HDR using Software-Defined Video over Ethernet (SDVoE) - the latest software-based AV-over-IP platform for extension and control of AV systems on Ethernet or fiber networks.

Easy, Flexible Deployment

This video extension system is easy to install on a modern network. MCXS7FO can be deployed on 10G networks over fiber.

Zero Latency

This robust video distribution system's glass-to-glass encoding and decoding happen in real-time (0.03 milliseconds). This means you never deal with annoying lag or video delay.

Seamless Switching

MCX switches between video sources in less than 100 milliseconds with no artifacts or screen blink. This means you can switch video content super-fast without any noticeable distortion to your image.

Complete Control

The MCX Web UI gives you complete control over your AV network from your preferred web browser.

Comprehensive Connectivity

You can connect every essential AV distribution device to your MCX through its variety of ports: discrete RS-232, IR, secondary audio channel plus a separate 1-GbE connection.
