A new generation of video converters from Blackmagic Design! Teranex Mini models feature 12G-SDI interface, Teranex circuitry, integrated power supply, optional front panel LCD display and support for all SD, HD and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60 or 4320p60 resolution for 8K models.
Teranex Mini models use a revolutionary new chassis designed to better dissipate the heat generated by the powerful 12G-SDI interface circuits. The new Teranex Mini products also address other issues of previous generations of converters: they feature an internal power supply, standard XLR connectors and ergonomic controls. Their attractive design also makes them suitable for desktop operation in post-production studios, and they can also be operated in instrument cabinets. Their small size makes them easy to use even on filming locations, just like previous generations of converters
Teranex Mini converters can handle 12G-SDI signals without overheating, even when multiple converters are installed side by side in a rack-mount adapter. The 12G-SDI interface allows to handle any SD, HD and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60 resolution over a single standard cable with BNC connectors. The 12G-SDI technology ensures compatibility with legacy SD and HD technology, with standards switching occurring automatically
One of the most innovative features of the new Teranex Mini is the optional front panel with rotary control, color LCD display and control buttons. The base panel of Teranex Mini models can be easily removed and replaced with the Teranex Mini Smart Panel with ergonomic controls. The panel provides video and audio monitoring, or displays time code or video signal standards. The Teranex Mini Smart Panel greatly enhances the user experience and allows for instant feedback when setting conversion parameters, which is especially important in a TV studio environment
The Teranex Mini series also brings integrated power supplies, eliminating less reliable external power supplies. All models also include an integrated Ethernet interface for remote control of the converters from a central location via the new Converter Utility application for Windows and Mac OS X. In addition, this network interface can also provide power to the device by supporting Power on Ethernet technology. PoE support can eliminate power cabling altogether, or serve as a backup power source! This makes it very easy to install multiple Teranex Mini converters in instrument cabinets
Teranex Mini products are also equipped with standard XLR connectors for symmetrical audio lines, digital AES/EBU interfaces or for connecting time code sources. Users can use standard studio cabling with a reliable connector type that has a lock to prevent accidental cable pull. The Teranex Mini's audio circuitry has been completely redesigned for extremely low noise (over -115 dBFS) and maximum audio quality
Teranex Mini models also offer Teranex technology for up and down signal conversion. For example, if a Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI model is connected to an HD TV that does not support the Ultra HD standard, the converter will automatically recalculate the input signal so that it can be displayed. Teranex's high-quality circuitry and algorithms make Teranex Mini models ideal tools for TV and post-production studio technicians. Re-synchronization of SDI inputs and low jitter levels allow the use of longer cabling. When converted to the analog domain, video is processed with 12-bit accuracy for minimal noise. Teranex video resolution recalculation technology ensures maximum quality conversion between SD, HD and Ultra HD standards
There are six Teranex Mini converter models to choose from - SDI to HDMI, HDMI to SDI, SDI to Analog, Analog to SDI, SDI to Audio and Audio to SDI. In addition, six optical interface variants are also available - Optical to HDMI, HDMI to Optical, Optical to Analog, Analog to Optical, Optical to Audio and Audio to Optical, which feature one SDI connector and one SMPTE-compliant 12G-SDI optical module

Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI 8K HDR
Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI 8K HDR is an advanced solution for monitoring 8K video using large screen TVs or projectors that also supports monitor calibration via optional third-party probes. It also offers output display of up to two signal measurement functions including waveform, component, vectorscope and histogram display. Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI 8K HDR is ideal for film studios and television professionals who require high-end equipment with a low purchase cost. The high utility value of the converter is also underlined by a front mask equipped with an LCD display for signal preview and convenient parameter setting
The front-panel LCD displays not only video preview but also audio meters with VU or PPM ballistics or input format; the rear panel hosts a Quad-Link 12G-SDI interface to support HD, Ultra HD and 8K resolutions. There are also 4 HDMI outputs for 8K TVs and projectors with Quad-HDMI inputs and, of course, functionality for down-converting 8K video to Ultra HD or HD resolution as well as automatic conversion between 2SI (2-Sample Interleave) and Square Division formats. The Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI 8K model offers support for the latest HDR standards incl. PQ and Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) formats according to ST2108-1, ST2084 and ST425 standards, and support for Rec.2020 and Rec.709 color spaces as well as DCI-P3 format
To assess the compatibility of the image with broadcast standards, two independent measurement tools can be displayed in blend mode. Users can change their position, size and transparency level, and choose from waveform, vectorscope and RGB/YUV component display functions that can be used to verify color correction and compatibility of the recording with broadcast standards. There is also a histogram display for checking the distribution of brightness levels and burn-in or burn-out
Teranex Mini SDI to HDMI 8K HDR offers 33-point 3D LUT corrections, plus it is possible to calibrate connected displays using third-party calibration probes connected to the USB interface. The converter will analyze and automatically generate 3D LUT data to suppress inconsistent color display across different monitors. Two independent 3D LUT tables can be imported and switched from the front panel. Supported USB calibration probes include SpectraCal C6, X-Rite i1 Display Pro and Klein K10-A
Pass-through Quad-Link 12G-SDI inputs support all common video standards including 50p, 59.94p to 60p at 720p resolution. Interlaced 1080i HD resolutions include 50i, 59.94i and 60i, with all frame rates from 23.98 to 60 fps supported for 1080p, 1080PsF and 2160p standards. Cinema 2K and 4K DCI standards are supported from 23.98p - 60p frame rates, 8K modes include 4320p23.98, 24, 25, 29.97, 50 and 59.94. The converter also automatically converts between 2SI and Square Division modes and supports both Level A and Level B modes for 3G-SDI interfaces and YUV or RGB color models for SDI
Thanks to its rubber feet, the converter can be placed on workbenches and the optional Teranex Mini Rack Shelf allows it to be mounted in instrument cabinets
Teranex Mini SDI to DisplayPort 8K HDR
Teranex Mini SDI to DisplayPort 8K HDR is an advanced solution for monitoring 8K video using DisplayPort computer monitors, such as the new Pro Display XDR. Unlike conventional converters, this product is able to use third-party calibration probes and also display the output of signal measurement functions including waveform, histogram or vectorscope. This is an ideal solution for film studios or television workplaces that require professional yet affordable video preview solutions. As an added bonus, the elegant design incl. LCD display for signal preview and easy setup
The front mask hosts controls and a color display to show the signal present on the video input, audio meters and video format indicator. The rear panel offers a Quad Link 12G-SDI interface compatible with HD, Ultra HD and 8K standards. There are also two DisplayPort connectors: one standard and one USB-C style for new monitors such as the Pro Display XDR. An integrated video resolution change function ensures the correct video signal is present for a monitor connected to the DisplayPort interface
Previewing the HDR SDI signal on compatible DisplayPort monitors is enabled by support for PQ and Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG) formats according to ST2108-1, ST2084 and ST425 standards. ST425 defines two new bits in the VPID to specify the transmission characteristic of SDR, HLG or PQ. The ST2108-1 standard specifies the method of transmission of static or dynamic HDR metadata over SDI. There is also support for ST2082-10 for 12G-SDI and ST425 for 3G-SDI sources. Rec.2020 and Rec.709 color spaces and 100% of DCI-P3 space are supported
