It puts existing laptops, cameras, media players and switchers onto an NDI-based AV-over-IP system with very low latency, while passing the HDMI signal to a local display. For commercial AV integrators it is a plug-and-play way to bring 4K sources into NDI production, lecture capture and distribution systems.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Magewell Pro Convert HDMI 4K Plus work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe encoder accepts HDMI 1.4 or 2.0 and DVI-D at up to 4K60 4:4:4, with a custom EDID so sources output exactly the format the system needs, and passes the signal through to a local display on the HDMI loop-through. It encodes NDI High Bandwidth at up to 4K60 4:2:2 or 1080p at up to 240 fps, with eight channels of HDMI-embedded audio carried in the NDI stream. Output can match the input or be scaled to a custom resolution and frame rate, with deinterlacing and aspect-ratio control, so mixed sources arrive on the network in a consistent format.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause it is a full-bandwidth NDI encoder, any NDI receiver on the network — NDI Studio Monitor, vMix, OBS, NDI decoders and switchers — can pick up the source directly, and NDI streams can cross network segments. The Mini-DIN-8 port provides tally light and PTZ camera control (VISCA, VISCA UDP, PELCO-P and PELCO-D) over NDI, so a production system can steer a camera through the same encoder. Setup is automatic: the unit detects the input format and takes a DHCP address, and is then managed through its web interface, Magewell Control Hub or HTTP APIs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor installation the encoder runs on 802.3af PoE or its 5 V supply, mounts with the included L-bracket or a ¼-20 thread, and can be rack mounted with Magewell's 1RU shelf. Magewell publishes a Q-SYS control plugin and Crestron SIMPL+ modules for Pro Convert encoders, so a room control system can monitor and manage the encoder.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the key features of the Magewell Pro Convert HDMI 4K Plus?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4K60 full-bandwidth NDI\u003c\/strong\u003e — Encodes HDMI up to 4096×2160 60p, or 1080p up to 240 fps, as NDI High Bandwidth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHDMI loop-through\u003c\/strong\u003e — Passes the 4K60 source to a local display while encoding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVery low latency\u003c\/strong\u003e — Suited to live production and real-time AV-over-IP distribution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScaling and frame-rate conversion\u003c\/strong\u003e — Outputs native or custom resolutions so mixed sources match on the network.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTally and PTZ control\u003c\/strong\u003e — Drives tally lights and controls PTZ cameras over NDI through the Mini-DIN-8 port.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoE powered\u003c\/strong\u003e — Runs from an 802.3af PoE switch port, removing local power at the source.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQ-SYS and Crestron integration\u003c\/strong\u003e — Magewell provides a Q-SYS plugin, Crestron modules and HTTP APIs.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNDI 6.3 support\u003c\/strong\u003e — Current NDI version for compatibility with modern NDI tools and devices.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere is the Magewell Pro Convert HDMI 4K Plus typically used?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroadcast studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditorium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHouse of worship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll-hands room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"table-layout:fixed;width:100%;min-width:300px\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:40%\"\u003e\n\u003ccol style=\"width:60%\"\u003e\n\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVideo input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI 1.4\/2.0, DVI-D; up to 4096×2160 60p 4:4:4 8-bit; custom EDID\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLoop-through\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI, up to 4K60 4:4:4\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNDI encoding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNDI High Bandwidth up to 4K60 4:2:2 or 1080p240; NDI 6.3\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8-ch HDMI embedded audio carried in NDI\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProcessing\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eScaling, deinterlacing, frame-rate and aspect-ratio conversion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePTZ \/ tally\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eVISCA, VISCA UDP, PELCO-P, PELCO-D via NDI; tally via Mini-DIN-8\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNetwork\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGigabit Ethernet with 802.3af PoE\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eUSB 2.0 Type B for 5 V power and RNDIS\/ECM setup\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eManagement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeb UI, Magewell Control Hub, HTTP APIs\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoE or 5 V; about 10 W max\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSize\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e117.5 × 66.7 × 23.4 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOperating temp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0 to 45 °C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIncluded\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 V adapter, USB cable, Mini-DIN-8 breakout, tally light, L-bracket\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this full NDI or NDI HX?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFull-bandwidth NDI High Bandwidth, for very low latency and full image quality on a Gigabit network.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes it work with Q-SYS?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes.
