Christie High Bandwidth Multi-Input Card (HB Mic) - 144-116109-01
Product Overview
The Christie High Bandwidth Multi-Input Card, or HBMIC (144-116109-01), consolidates the high-bandwidth inputs a large-venue projector needs onto one card, supporting 4K at 60Hz over a single cable. It provides dual 12G-SDI, HDMI 2.0 with HDCP 2.2, DisplayPort 1.2 with HDCP 1.3, and a QSFP+ fiber port for direct connection to a Christie Link Transmitter. All inputs offer preview capability with fast syncing and switching between sources. It installs in Boxer 4K, Boxer 30, Mirage 304K, and Boxer 2K projectors.
Product Description
Input flexibility determines how quickly a projector integrates into a show or facility, and the HBMIC covers the formats large-venue workflows actually use. Broadcast-style infrastructure feeds the two 12G-SDI inputs; media servers and playback systems connect over HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2; and long-haul fiber from a Christie Link Transmitter lands directly on the QSFP+ port — no external receiver required. Every input supports preview, so operators can verify upcoming sources before taking them live, and switching between inputs is fast with quick re-sync. Slot placement is straightforward: the card occupies Slot 0 on Boxer 4K, Boxer 30, and Mirage 304K, and Slot 1 or 2 on Boxer 2K. For integrators building Link-based fiber distribution, the HBMIC is the projector-side half of the system. It is the single most versatile input card to standardize on across a Boxer fleet.
