It accepts HDMI input up to 4K and encodes up to 2048×2160, or 1080p at up to 120 fps, while passing the source to a local display through HDMI loop-through. It is the cost-effective way to put presentation laptops, cameras and media players onto an NDI-based AV-over-IP network in conference rooms, studios and event spaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow does the Magewell Pro Convert HDMI Plus work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe encoder takes an HDMI 1.4 or DVI-D source at up to 4096×2160 30p (4:4:4) or 60p (4:2:0) and passes the full signal to a display on the loop-through output, so the room screen keeps working while the source goes onto the network. A custom EDID makes the source output exactly the format the system needs. The unit scales the input to a native or custom resolution and encodes NDI High Bandwidth at up to 2048×2160 or 1080p120 with eight channels of embedded HDMI audio, and can halve, third or quarter the frame rate to save bandwidth.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAny NDI receiver — NDI Studio Monitor, vMix, OBS, NDI decoders and switchers — can pick up the source directly. The Mini-DIN-8 port drives a tally light and controls PTZ cameras over NDI using VISCA, VISCA UDP, PELCO-P or PELCO-D. The encoder detects the input format and takes a DHCP address on its own, is managed through its web interface, Magewell Control Hub or HTTP APIs, and runs on 802.3af PoE or its 5 V supply. Magewell publishes Q-SYS and Crestron plugins for the Pro Convert encoder family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat are the key features of the Magewell Pro Convert HDMI Plus?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFull-bandwidth NDI\u003c\/strong\u003e — Encodes NDI High Bandwidth up to 2048×2160 or 1080p120 with very low latency.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e4K input with loop-through\u003c\/strong\u003e — Accepts HDMI up to 4K and passes it to a local display while encoding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScaling and frame-rate control\u003c\/strong\u003e — Outputs native or custom resolutions and reduced frame rates to match 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\u003eControl-system integration\u003c\/strong\u003e — Q-SYS and Crestron plugins plus HTTP APIs for room automation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhere is the Magewell Pro Convert HDMI Plus typically used?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConference room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTraining room\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBroadcast studio\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHouse of worship\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAuditorium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-purpose 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, DVI-D; up to 4096×2160 30p 4:4:4 or 60p 4:2:0; custom EDID\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLoop-through\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHDMI, same as input\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNDI encoding\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNDI High Bandwidth up to 2048×2160 120p 4:2:2 8-bit; NDI 6.2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAudio\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e8-ch HDMI embedded, carried in NDI\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; 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\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 8 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\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\u003eWhat is the difference between the HDMI Plus and HDMI 4K Plus?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth accept 4K input with loop-through.
