Blackmagic Design Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G

The Blackmagic Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G is a bi directional SDI to optical fiber converter that lets customers extend SDI connections up to 10 miles away. 

Blackmagic Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G is a compact converter that extends SDI connections over massive distances by converting SDI to optical fiber and optical fiber to SDI in both directions at the same time. Using the Blackmagic Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G is an affordable way to increase camera coverage at live events because it lets broadcasters place cameras up to 10 miles away from their switchers, routers, and decks using low cost optical fiber cable. That makes it perfect for placing cameras around any studio, for use at outdoor sporting events or even concerts and theatrical performances in large venues.
