Skaarhoj ETH-SDI Link

Professional Ethernet to SDI Control Interface

The Skaarhoj ETH-SDI Link is a high-performance interface designed to bridge the gap between Ethernet-based control systems and SDI broadcast workflows. By receiving UDP camera control information over Ethernet and forwarding it directly to the SDI output, this device ensures seamless communication across your production environment.

Eliminate the Need for ATEM Switchers

One of the primary advantages of the ETH-SDI Link is its ability to facilitate direct control of Blackmagic Design cameras. Operators can utilize Skaarhoj RCP panels or the Blackmagic Design Camera Control Panel to manage cameras like the Ursa Broadcast G2 without the necessity of an ATEM switcher in the signal chain.

Optimized for Remote and Centralized Production

The ETH-SDI Link is engineered for modern production demands:

• Centralized Control: Merge network data from multiple Remote Control Panels onto a single SDI wire to reduce cable clutter.
• Remote Capabilities: Achieve real-time control in locations where running extensive SDI cabling is impossible by leveraging network infrastructure.
• PoE Support: Features Power over Ethernet to simplify installation and minimize the need for additional power supplies.

Robust Broadcast Reliability

Built for professional reliability, the device integrates easily into existing infrastructures via standard SDI connectivity. It is an essential tool for broadcasters looking to streamline signal design while maintaining precise control over remote camera units.
