The Science Image NDI-Studio-4KSH Encoder/Decoder is a versatile powerhouse designed for professional video production. It seamlessly handles up to 12G SDI and HDMI 4K60 video signal inputs, effortlessly converting them into network signals, while also facilitating the reverse conversion of network signals into SDI/HDMI outputs. Its broadcast-grade performance ensures the faithful reproduction of original image colour and sharpness with minimal latency, meeting stringent broadcast-grade metrics. This encoder/decoder further enhances production workflows with flexible UDP features, integrated TALLY, and audio embed/unembed capabilities. Simultaneously supporting encoding, frequency conversion, and optical transceiver functions, users can tailor transmission methods to their specific needs, enabling seamless integration into diverse environments.
Moreover, the NDI-Studio-4KSH Encoder/Decoder boasts extensive format support, offering up to 27 formats of up and down conversion from HD to UHD, with resolutions reaching up to 3840x2160p60. Its long-distance transmission capabilities are equally impressive, with ultra-fast and super-stable transmission capabilities supporting optical transceiver function for distances of up to 20km using a single fibre optic cable. The built-in 12G-SDI and HDMI 4K60 optical transceiver function enhance its utility, allowing for two-way optical transmission with effortless switching between receiving and sending functions at the touch of a button. With support for NDI 5.5 functions and toolsets, this encoder/decoder breaks free from geographical constraints and bandwidth limitations, empowering users to build studios without limitations.

10/10 Best earpieces in the Market
Works great, instantly sent to me.
The products supplied by D2N was the best in the business. We used these items for the first time around Mount Panorama, Bathurst which is known for poor coverage and interference. Their products were top notch, perfect range and quality of voice around the whole circuit, super impressed!
Great service and delivery, helpful, technical assistance.
