Blackmagic Design DeckLink IP HD Optical – SMPTE 2110 Card
Product Overview
The Blackmagic Design DeckLink IP HD Optical is a SMPTE 2110 capture and playback card that connects to IP broadcast networks over a 10G SFP+ optical (fiber) interface. It provides dual HD channels for capture and playback up to 1080p60, with NMOS device discovery and a frame-buffer "video firewall" for network security. As a fiber IP video capture and playback card for macOS, Windows, and Linux, it suits facilities running ST 2110 over optical infrastructure.
Product Description
The DeckLink IP HD Optical connects a workstation into a SMPTE 2110 IP environment through a 10GBASE-LR optical SFP+ port, providing two capture and two playback channels across all SD and HD formats up to 1080p60. It supports a wide range of codecs — ProRes, DNxHD/HR, AVC-Intra, HEVC, and uncompressed 10-bit 4:4:4 — and includes a frame-buffer video firewall that isolates the workstation from the network for added security. NMOS IS-04 and IS-05 support enables standardized device discovery and connection management in IP facilities. On a low-profile PCIe Gen2 x4 card, it fits compact systems and works with major editing and production software on macOS, Windows, and Linux. Within the DeckLink IP HD family, this Optical model uses a 10G SFP+ fiber connection, while the standard IP HD uses 10G RJ45 copper and the IP/SDI HD adds onboard 3G-SDI ports alongside IP.
