Connecting HDMI Sources to SDI Workflows

The Manfrotto Micro Converter HDMI to SDI 3G translates an HDMI Type A signal into dual 3G-SDI outputs. It automatically detects SD, HD and 3G-SDI formats and applies reclocking to maintain signal integrity over long cable runs. The unit is housed in a strong aluminium chassis and draws power through a USB-C connection.

For Broadcast Integration, Not Consumer Display

This converter suits professionals linking HDMI cameras, computers or game consoles to professional SDI switchers, recorders or monitors. It supports level A and level B output formats plus feature-film frame rates such as 1080p24, 1080p47.95 and 1080p48. Buyers who only need to view HDMI content on an SDI screen without format flexibility should look elsewhere.

USB-C Power Simplifies Mobile Rigs

Power comes from any USB-C source, such as a laptop or television port, using a common USB-C cable. This removes the need for a dedicated power supply and keeps the device compact for on-location work. The dual SDI outputs feed two destinations simultaneously, freeing up distribution amplifiers in a portable kit.

Questions about this item

Do I need a USB-C cable and power source to run the Micro Converter HDMI to SDI 3G?

Yes, the converter draws power over USB-C so you must supply a USB-C cable and a suitable USB power source such as a laptop port or USB charger.

Will the converter pass 1080p24 and 1080p47.95 from my older HDMI camera through its dual 3G-SDI outputs?

Yes, the device supports feature-film formats including 1080p24, 1080p47.95 and 1080p48, and provides two 3G-SDI outputs configurable to level A or level B.

How can I confirm the Micro Converter is actively converting my HDMI signal to SDI after I connect everything?

The converter automatically detects the incoming HDMI format and reclocks the SDI outputs; a stable picture on your SDI monitor or recorder at the expected resolution (for example 1080p or 720p) confirms correct operation.
