Video Converters & Splitters

A new addition to our rental equipment is a Datavideo HDMI to HD/SDI converter HDMI to HD/SDI converter.
The unit is equipped with one HDMI input and 2x HD/DSI bnc outputs. It also has a velcro strap on the back allowing you to mount it on to a tripod (see image)
This useful converter has a number of uses. Firstly it allows us to use a Canon 7d or 5D mkII with our Panasonic 8inch and Tamuz 14.4inch monitors.
Second, it allows for much longer cable runs from a Video DSLR or HDMI source. HDMI is not suitable for long cable runs, but by converting to HD/SDI you can run for up to 200m to your video device.
The unit is powered by a 12v mains power supply can can be tripod mounted using the supplied velcro straps.
