The BirdDog 4K SDI is engineered from the ground up for demanding broadcast and live production environments. Powered by custom BirdDog NDI silicon and housed in a rugged aircraft-grade aluminium case, this device supports resolutions up to 4Kp60. Whether you need to encode a high-resolution source or decode NDI back to baseband video, the 4K SDI delivers low-latency, high-quality performance for real-world users.
Versatile 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 Connectivity
Equipped with 12G-SDI and HDMI 2.0 inputs and outputs, the 4K SDI ensures maximum compatibility with modern professional equipment. The built-in cross converter allows any 12G-SDI input to be looped out via the HDMI 2.0 port, and any HDMI 2.0 input to be looped out via 12G-SDI, providing incredible flexibility in signal routing. Note that while the 4K SDI and 4K HDMI models include this function, it is not available on the QUAD model.
