The Cobalt SAPPHIRE BBG-2110-4Ho/4Sio delivers high-quality design, function, and reliability in a small package. The units are the ideal choice for directly displaying incoming IPMX content on HDMI monitors, including content originating from a WAN connection, and for converting HDMI to compressed or baseband IPMX streams. The converters are available in single, dual, and quad-channel configurations, with some models capable of simultaneously transmitting and receiving. They feature audio sample rate conversion, and the receiving units can mix-and-match audio channels that are asynchronous to the video. The converters can be mounted directly behind the monitor, will not take up any rack space, and are incredibly quiet, which makes them ideal for small editing or control suites.
The units feature dual SFP cages with support for 10G and 25G Ethernet ports with an additional 1Gbps copper Ethernet port for out-of-band management. Support for SMPTE ST 2022-7 seamless switching up to Class-C operation for WAN environments, NMOS IS-04/IS-05 control and management, both in-band and out-of-band, and uncompressed ST 2110-20 video and JPEG-XS compressed ST 2110-22 video is an option. The new switching function allows the new channel to lock into place before releasing the old channel for a seamless experience. This also includes audio ramp down/ramp up to avoid a click.
Please Note: The SAPPHIRE BBG-2110-4Ho/4Sio currently supports 1 path of 4K. The other 3 paths support up to 1080p.
