Magewell Pro Capture Dual SDI 4K Plus - PCIe Capture Card / 2× 12G-SDI / 4K60

Key features

• Two 4K60 channels via 12G-SDI
• Also dual-link 6G-SDI or quad-link 3G-SDI
• Low latency of around 64 video lines
• 10-bit processing, timestamp and colour adjustment
• PCIe Gen2 x8, suitable for 24/7 operation

How it works

The card fits in a free PCIe slot and registers in the operating system as a standard capture device. The on-board FPGA handles deinterlacing, scaling, colour space and frame rate conversion in hardware, leaving the computer's processor free for encoding, streaming or recording. Each channel can deliver several streams at once, for example in different resolutions for recording and streaming. Multiple cards can be used in one system.

Applications

Broadcast ingest, multi-camera 4K production, replay and graphics systems.

Limitations

Requires a PCIe x8 slot (or larger).
