The Pro Convert SDI TX 1-Channel NDI Encoder from Magewell allows you to convert an SDI signal with embedded audio to an NDI stream. It supports resolutions up to 2048 x 1080 at 60p on both input and NDI output. The device can be powered via an included power adapter or over PoE using the NDI port. It features a 1/4"-20 thread for camera mounting and can be used in the studio or in the field thanks to a compact and robust design. There's also a PTZ+tally shared mini-DIN port for connecting tally lights or setting up NDI-based PTZ camera control. A tally light accessory comes included.
A companion Web UI allows assigning the device name, source name, and other settings. The encoder also has an on-board SD card slot but it is not functional at the time of this writing. Any future firmware updates will also be accessible via the Web UI.
The Pro Convert SDI TX Encoder additionally features an integrated cable equalizer that allows for SDI cables lengths up to 590'.
