Using simple Cat6 copper cables means you can build SMPTE-2110 systems at a dramatically lower cost. The cables are simple and Ethernet switches for 10G Ethernet are very common. In most cases, modern buildings already have 10G Ethernet cable installed, so you can use the cables you already have. Plus copper cables can remote power devices such as converters and cameras. There are also models for optical fiber Ethernet. Optical fiber at 10G speed is much lower cost than 25G or 40G Ethernet. You can even use 3G, 6G or 12G‑SDI SFP modules.

Incredibly Easy to Install
One of the biggest problems with SMPTE-2110 is needing an IT tech on standby to keep video systems running. Blackmagic 2110 IP converters solve this problem because they can connect point to point, so you don't need to use a complex Ethernet switch if you don't want to. That means you get the advantage of SMPTE-2110 IP video with simple Ethernet cables, remote power and bidirectional video. It’s just like an SDI workflow. You can plug cameras into rack converters and get all the camera control, program video, power and tally, with a single cable. Or connect an HDMI converter to a rack converter for remote monitors. Everything automatically configures and just works.

• Simple Point to Point - You can connect the converters point to point with a simple Ethernet cable between the converters. An example is between a rack and a monitor converter or camera. The point to point connection auto configures so you don't need to enter any settings. It's a simple cable that you just plug in. With point to point connections, you get the perfect solution for live events as the Ethernet cable can make connecting to cameras extremely simple with all control, power and video down a single cable.
• Connect via Ethernet Switch - When working in larger SMPTE-2110 systems, such as broadcast, you can connect all your video gear to an Ethernet switch. In this case, you just plug everything into the Ethernet switch and then make the connections between devices by configuring the Ethernet switch. It works just like a large video router as all connections are made between the SMPTE-2110 devices. Plus all Blackmagic 2110 IP products support the NMOS protocol. It's easy to configure and is totally flexible.

Get True 10-Bit Broadcast Video Quality
Blackmagic 2110 IP Converters are designed to support the highest quality video. 10-bit is the most commonly used television standard as colors can be represented with 4 times the precision of 8-bit video. Only working with 10-bit video will ensure all images are a perfect pixel for pixel transmission of the original SDI source, so you’re always working at the absolute highest quality possible. This means you don't lose quality, even at high frame rate Ultra HD, so you get the sharpest green screen keying plus crisp titles and color correction. Plus Blackmagic 2110 IP Converters include SDI re-clocking so all devices in your studio receive a regenerated signal with very low SDI jitter.

Get Low Cost High Frame Rate Ultra HD
By using 10G Ethernet, Blackmagic SMPTE‑2110 IP video products can be smaller, lower power and more affordable. Plus all HD standards and Ultra HD video standards are still the highest 10-bit quality. With 10G Ethernet, all video is uncompressed, however when running at the highest 2160p59.94 and 2160p60 formats, the IP10 codec is used. To use 2160p59.94 and 2160p60 with low cost 10G Ethernet, you need some data rate reduction. The Blackmagic IP10 codec solves this problem. It has a low latency of 8 samples, is open standard and has no license fees.
