Description

Convert the signals from three separate 3G-SDI devices to 2110 IP video systems with this 2110 IP Converter 3X3G from Blackmagic Design. The wide range of connectivity includes a 10G Ethernet port that handles up to three video channels simultaneously, three 3G-SDI inputs and three 3G-SDI outputs, as well as three loop outputs. The unit also handles up to 16 channels of embedded audio with their respective video signals, and the RJ45 10G Ethernet port supports 10/100/1000/10G BASE-T and can also be used for PoE+ power connectivity. The reference output is timed to the 2110 PTP clock. A 2.2" color LCD display on the front panel provides signal monitoring, menus, and diagnostic data. IP inputs can also be routed from the panel. Designed to integrate any 3G-SDI equipment into 2110 IP broadcast systems, the rackmount design allows the unit to be installed in equipment racks right beside the equipment you're converting. Employing an active fan-based cooling system, the unit remains cool even when mounted next to other gear. In addition to the PoE+ option, the unit also features a 100 to 240V AC power port.

About the Blackmagic Design BMD-CONVNVIPA3/3G 2110 IP Converter 3x3G

The Blackmagic Design BMD-CONVNVIPA3/3G 2110 IP Converter is a professional gateway device designed to bridge traditional SDI-based video infrastructures with modern IP-based production networks using the SMPTE ST 2110 standard. This converter allows broadcast facilities and live production companies to transition to or integrate IP workflows by taking in up to three independent 3G-SDI signals and converting them into a single, uncompressed SMPTE ST 2110 IP stream for transmission over a standard Gigabit Ethernet network. Conversely, it can also receive an ST 2110 IP stream and convert it back to three discrete 3G-SDI outputs, providing bidirectional flexibility.

A core function of this converter is its adherence to the SMPTE ST 2110 professional media over IP suite, which separates video, audio, and ancillary data into independent streams for efficient network routing and processing. This enables seamless integration with other ST 2110-compliant equipment like IP switches, routers, and monitoring systems within an all-IP facility. The device supports high-quality, low-latency transmission essential for live production, and includes features for PTP (Precision Time Protocol) synchronization, which is critical for aligning all devices on an IP network.

Housed in a compact 1RU rackmount form factor, the converter is built for reliability in 24/7 broadcast operations. It features simple setup via front-panel controls or web-based configuration, allowing engineers to manage IP addresses, stream mapping, and PTP settings easily. By providing a robust and straightforward interface between SDI and SMPTE ST 2110 IP domains, this converter is an essential tool for broadcasters modernizing their infrastructure to leverage the scalability and flexibility of IP-based video production.

FAQs about Blackmagic Design BMD-CONVNVIPA3/3G 2110 IP Converter 3x3G

What is the primary function of the Blackmagic 2110 IP Converter 3x3G?

It connects up to three separate 3G-SDI devices into an uncompressed SMPTE ST 2110 broadcast IP video network. It provides three independent bidirectional channels, allowing you to convert 3G-SDI video to IP and IP video to 3G-SDI simultaneously.

What video resolutions and formats does it support?

It supports multi-rate 3G-SDI video up to 1080p60, as well as standard definition (525i59.94 and 625i50) and 720p HD. Each of the three channels operates completely independently, so you can run mixed video standards across the different SDI inputs and outputs.

What SMPTE 2110 standards does the unit support?

It adheres to open broadcast IP standards, including SMPTE ST 2110-20 (uncompressed video), ST 2110-30 (PCM audio), and ST 2110-40 (ancillary data like timecode and subtitles). It also supports NMOS (IS-04 and IS-05) specifications for automated device discovery, registration, and connection management by central IP broadcast controllers.

How does network connectivity work on this converter?

It features an RJ45 10G Ethernet port capable of carrying all three channels of uncompressed bidirectional 1080p60 video, audio, and metadata over standard Cat6A copper cabling. Because it routes uncompressed 2110 video without compression artifacts, latency is near-zero.

How is the unit powered?

It can be powered via an internal universal 100–240 V AC power supply using a standard IEC mains cable. Alternatively, it supports Power over Ethernet (PoE+) directly through its 10G Ethernet port, allowing for single-cable power and data installation when paired with a compatible PoE+ network switch.

Does it feature front-panel controls or monitoring?

Yes, the front panel includes an integrated color LCD screen along with push buttons and a spin knob. The display allows you to monitor live video feeds from any of the three channels, check audio meters, view network IP settings, and configure diagnostics on the fly.

What is the physical size and rack footprint of the unit?

It is built in a compact 1U half-rack chassis, making it suitable for desktop use or portable broadcast flypacks. Using the optional Blackmagic Universal Rack Shelf, you can mount two units side-by-side in a single 19-inch 1U rack space.

Does it include a reference input for synchronization?

Yes, it features dedicated BNC reference inputs and loop-through outputs supporting Black Burst and Tri-Level sync. It also synchronizes to PTP (Precision Time Protocol IEEE 1588) over the 10G IP network to lock all streams tightly to the studio master clock.
