The Blackmagic Design Videohub Mini routers are the perfect solution for adding extra inputs to your SDI equipment. All connections are 12G-SDI, so they work in SD, HD and Ultra HD video standards. They also have a new type of clean switch that's selected on the video outputs, not locked into the inputs. This means you can route a specific source with clean switch to one output while switching the same source as a direct feed to other outputs! The front panel features video routing buttons, but it also has emergency 12G-SDI video connections and a USB webcam video output!
The Blackmagic Design Videohub Mini 8x4 12G is a compact zero latency video router that supports any combination of SD, HD and Ultra HD on the router at the same time. It has 8 12G-SDI inputs and 4 12G-SDI outputs plus reference connections for locking clean switch outputs in a compact 2/3 rack width size. The front panel control panel lets you quickly route a video connection and even includes an emergency 12G-SDI connection for patching in external gear and USB-C webcam video out. It also features SDI re-clocking, external Ethernet control and supports all SDI video standards up to 2160p60.
Eliminates Complex Cable Mess
The Blackmagic Design Videohub Mini routers are designed for adding extra inputs to all types of SDI broadcast equipment. They are designed to be small, so they take up very little space in mobile racks, where space is limited. You can add extra inputs to ATEM switchers, or add input selection to streaming encoders and HyperDeck recorders. You can also use it to add extra inputs to video monitors! Routers are fantastic because you can make changes to connections without frantically patching cables in the middle of a job. If you have an urgent customer need or emergency, you can connect gear to the SDI connections on the front panel. That means you can handle the unexpected without rewiring your rack.
Front Panel Includes Router Control and Video Patching
The front panel design of the The Blackmagic Design Videohub Mini has been designed for fast cut-bus style switching with dedicated buttons for outputs and inputs. To route a video connection, simply select the destination button and then press the source button! That provides all the routing control you need, even though the routers are designed to fit into small, portable racks. The front panel also has 12G-SDI video connections for patching in external gear, and the front panel input connection will override the highest rear input connection when video is connected. The front panel also has a USB webcam output so you can connect a computer for recording, video scopes or streaming software.
