BirdDog Flex 4K Backpack product description
The World's Smallest 4K NDI Encoder
The BirdDog Flex 4K Backpack delivers professional-grade 4K NDI in a footprint barely larger than a credit card. This ultra-compact encoder provides a complete production solution including Tally, Audio Intercom, Video, and PTZ Control over a single Ethernet cable.
Advanced Thermal Management
Designed for reliability in demanding environments, the Flex 4K features an innovative thermal design and whisper-quiet fans. This ensures the unit remains cool and stable even during long productions in direct sunlight or high-temperature settings.
Integrated NP Battery Mount
The Backpack model is specifically engineered to upgrade your camera-top monitor. With its NP-style battery connection and 15W DC output, you can encode NDI while simultaneously powering your monitor, recorder, or camera from a single source.
Revolutionary Halo Tally
Eliminate complex setups with the built-in Halo Tally system. It requires zero configuration when connected to NDI-enabled software and provides clear visibility for both camera operators and on-air talent.
Full PTZ Control and Dante Support
- PTZ Sidekick: Add an optional control cable to gain full PTZ command over non-native NDI cameras.
- Dante Integration: Support for Dante input and output via the 3.5mm audio jack allows you to embed or de-embed audio.
- Single Cable Workflow: Power, Video, Audio, Tally, and Comms all delivered via PoE.
