Blackmagic Videohub 10×10 12G-SDI Video Router

Blackmagic Videohub 10×10 12G-SDI Zero Latency Video Router

Blackmagic Videohub 10×10 12G is an advanced zero latency video router that supports any combination of SD, HD, and Ultra HD on the router at the same time. It has 10 12G-SDI inputs and 10 12G-SDI outputs, plus reference connections, in one-rack unit size. The front panel LCD lets you see video before routing and clearly displays routing labels and video standards. Routing can be performed by direct button selection and using the large spin knob control that has an electronic clutch. It also features SDI re-clocking, and external Ethernet control, and supports all SDI video standards up to 2160p60.

Change Router Crosspoints Visually

With a built-in LCD, Blackmagic Videohub 12G can show you live video of all your router inputs. This means you can see all router inputs as a live video before you change a route. There are also labels displayed below the live video to make it easy to identify the input you are viewing.

Advanced 12G-SDI for SD, HD, and Ultra HD Routing

All models of Blackmagic Videohub 12G feature advanced 12G-SDI connections, which are multiple-rate, so they support any SD, HD, and Ultra HD video format up to 2160p60 and will connect to any SD, HD-SDI, 3G-SDI, 6G-SDI, and 12G-SDI equipment. Plus, Blackmagic Videohub 12G also supports routing any video standard on the same router at the same time.

Features: Full SDI Re-Clocking

Videohub includes built-in SDI re-clocking on every 12G-SDI input. SDI re-clocking regenerates the video signal for maximum video quality. This is extremely important because longer video cables degrade the signal.

Expensive premium “digital” cables can help a little, but still cannot eliminate signal integrity loss due to cable lengths getting longer. With SDI re-clocking, all of the SDI devices in your studio receive a regenerated signal with improved jitter performance.

Get Router Control on Mac, Windows, and iPad

Videohub Software Control is perfect because it can be downloaded for free. Videohub Software Control is available for both Mac and Windows, so you can run it on the computers you’re already using for creative work. The software features large buttons that are easy to press. Each button can be customized to a router input, or output, and has an icon assigned to help you identify it visually. The big buttons are great for use on a touchscreen PC, where the software becomes a large screen XY control panel. You can even download a version of the software for the Apple iPad.

Includes Videohub Setup Utility

In Blackmagic Videohub 12G, all the video inputs and outputs will have simple default labels, however, you can customize them to match the equipment you have connected. That?s why the Blackmagic Videohub 12G installer includes Videohub Setup software, which lets you customize the router input and output labels. You can even enable the take button to be used when changing sources, plus the take button can be enabled for each specific video output. The Videohub Setup also lets you program the buttons on the front panel, update the router software, or configure external hardware panels. The software supports Mac and Windows and can be connected via Ethernet or USB.

Customize Router Control with the Developer SDK

Videohub includes a free software development kit so developers and system integrators can easily add protocol support for integration into broadcast automation systems. Plus all Videohub routers use a simple text-based protocol that’s easy to learn. This makes it very simple to create custom control solutions from all computer platforms and even embedded hardware such as Raspberry Pi and Arduino. The protocol can even be used with a Telnet app so you can experiment with controlling the router before you start coding. Plus, the protocol is the same one used for the Videohub Software Control so it’s well-tested and includes all the features needed for complex control apps.

Localized for 13 Popular Languages

Blackmagic Videohub 10×10 12G supports multiple languages so you can customize it to the language you prefer. You get support in English, Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, German, French, Russian, Italian, Portuguese, Turkish, Polish, and Ukrainian. Simply go into the setup menu to set the language, or you can change it at any time in the future. Once a language is selected, the menus and the display on the LCD will change to the selected language. However, independent of the language you set, the input and output labels are always Unicode so you can customize the labels to a mix of multiple languages. Multiple languages mean you can work anywhere in the world and with any local crew.

Videohub Features:

Better Image Quality Supports Multiple Formats

When you need to work on global events, you need to stay updated with the latest technology and television standards. Videohub gives you support for all 525SD and 625SD, 720HD and 1080HD, and the Ultra HD video standards. Plus you can connect multiple video standards simultaneously.

Embedded Audio for Audio and Video

The SDI standard includes up to 32 channels of embedded audio included with the SDI video signal. The advantage of embedded audio is that it all connects with a single BNC cable and all audio remains perfectly synchronized to the video. Plus, all modern SDI equipment supports embedded SDI audio.

Deeper Bit Depth and Color Precision

Videohub is designed to support the highest quality video. 10-bit is the most commonly used standard, as colors can be represented more accurately than 8-bit video. You can route 4:2:2 8-bit or 10-bit video in any standard, and it even works with 4:4:4 12-bit SDI up to 2160p30 for a feature film.
