View full details

On the capture side, the Blackmagic Design DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G is an 8-lane PCIe Gen2 electronic cinema acquisition and playback medium with two multi-rate 12G-SDI sources and feeds that accept definitions from SD up to DCI 4K (4096 x 2160) at 60 fps. The medium allows 10-bit YUV and 8-, 10-, and 12-little RGB colour, as well as up/down/cross conversions and 3D stereoscopic feed at full bandwidth 4:4:4:4 RGB. The DeckLink 4K Extreme 12G provides a mezzanine card configuration that has 4K HDMI source and feed connectors on a second daughter medium, along with links for attaching two optional optical fiber modules for Dual Stage optical fiber SDI source and output. The card additionally accommodates AES/EBU well-controlled XLR and unbalanced RCA sources/outputs, analog footage I/O, reference source, and RS-422 control through an supplied breakout cable.

adaptable Format compatibility — Blackmagic Design DeckLink — Product Guide

The card provides adaptable format and arrangement support, letting you operate with compressed footage formats such as ProRes and DNxHD, as well as 12-bit 4:4:4 uncompressed footage. Whenever working with uncompressed footage, all pictures are pixel-for-pixel identical to the source, eliminating any generational loss. This lets you get sharper keying with green displays, cleaner compositions, heightened color correction, and additional. Support for common file formats offers ready-to-edit files for use in widely chosen editing, effects, and configuration software uses. DeckLink Studio 4K is compatible with Mac-, Windows-, and Linux-based workstations.

Optical Fiber Connections: Guide

Two optical fiber links on the daughter medium compatibility optional optical fiber modules for Dual Stage optical fiber SDI source and feed. SMPTE compatible optical modules can be added for up to 12G-SDI speeds, enabling you to choose to connect hardware using optical fiber links instead of regular BNC copper leads for much longer lead runs, even at 12 Gb/s speeds.
