A converter for taking an SDI source to an HDMI display, and that is the only direction it runs. Buyers who need HDMI into SDI, or who need to know what ships in the box, should look elsewhere.

Overview
Unlike a switcher or a scaler, this Blackmagic Design unit takes an SDI signal and hands it to an HDMI display, nothing more. It is a small inline box, so the run is only as good as the SDI feed and the HDMI cable that follows. Nothing in the listing describes the power arrangement or the box contents, so plan around that.
Anyone with an SDI camera, deck or router and an HDMI monitor at the other end gets a straightforward bridge. The direction is fixed, so it will not send an HDMI source back out over SDI, and the listing leaves the power source and included items unstated.
Who it's for
A post desk or field kit with SDI gear on one side and an HDMI screen on the other is where this belongs, since the conversion runs that way only. It does not serve a setup that needs the reverse path, nor one that needs audio, HDCP or power details confirmed from the listing before purchase.
Pros and cons
- Converts SDI to HDMI in one step
- Compact Blackmagic Design body
- SDI and HDMI connectivity listed
- Three HDMI ports noted
- Direction is SDI to HDMI only
- Power source not listed
- Included components not listed
- Max resolution not listed
Performance notes
The result depends on the SDI signal arriving clean and on the HDMI run that follows, since the box itself only converts. A long or weak SDI feed will show up at the display no matter what the converter does, and the HDMI side has to carry the format the display accepts.

Frequently asked questions
Does the Blackmagic Design Micro Converter SDI to HDMI 3G work in both directions?
No. The listed direction is SDI in and HDMI out, so it takes an SDI signal and feeds an HDMI display. Converting an HDMI source back to SDI is not what this unit does.
Can the Blackmagic Design Micro Converter SDI to HDMI 3G sit between a router and a monitor?
It can take SDI from a router or camera and output HDMI to a display, which is the direction listed. Whether the run works depends on the SDI feed quality and the HDMI cable and display at the far end.
