Self-contained 4K streaming encoder
The Blackmagic Design Streaming Encoder 4K is a dedicated hardware appliance that encodes and streams H.264 or H.265 video via SRT or RTMP. It targets live producers, broadcasters and event teams who need reliable direct-to-platform delivery without a host computer.
12G-SDI in, dual monitor out and phone tethering
A single 12G-SDI input accepts DCI 4K signals up to 60 fps and passes them through a loop output for downstream gear. SDI and HDMI monitor ports let operators view confidence feeds while the integrated 2.2 inch LCD shows video, audio levels and menus. The rear RJ45 port handles 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet, and the USB-C connector tethers to 4G or 5G phones for cellular backup or webcam output to a computer.
Suited for single-camera SDI workflows needing
This unit fits producers who want a standalone box with physical front-panel controls and redundant power inputs. It does not suit buyers who require multi-channel switching, internal recording to local media, wireless networking built in, or HDMI input without an external converter.
