Blackmagic Teranex Mini Audio to SDI 12G

This compact audio insertion unit is engineered to bring professional grade sound into modern SDI based infrastructures with absolute precision. It enables balanced analog sources, digital AES or even HiFi and optical audio signals to be embedded directly into any SD, HD or Ultra HD 12G SDI feed, ensuring seamless compatibility with today’s high resolution workflows. Designed for demanding broadcast, live production and post environments, it maintains signal integrity across a wide range of frame rates up to 2160p60, allowing operators to work confidently with everything from standard definition archives to high frame rate Ultra HD material. The device’s internal processing guarantees stable synchronization between audio and picture while preserving full dynamic range and low noise performance across all supported formats.

Connectivity is at the heart of this unit’s flexibility. Balanced XLR inputs allow integration with professional mixers and audio interfaces, while unbalanced RCA connections accommodate consumer level gear. An additional optical input supports TOSLINK, making the system ideal for environments where versatility and cross compatibility are essential. The right channel XLR connector can also be configured for timecode input, ensuring that complex multi device systems remain accurately synchronized. With automatic detection of SDI signal formats, operators benefit from an effortless workflow that requires no manual switching when source resolutions change. The SDI output can carry up to four channels of AES or two channels of analog audio embedded within the video stream, making the device suitable for both stereo and multichannel production setups.

Operation and configuration have been designed for both convenience and precision. The unit may be controlled using mini switches on its chassis or via USB or Ethernet using the dedicated software utility. Remote administration allows technical teams to adjust settings and monitor performance across an entire facility. An optional front mounted smart panel adds an LCD display, navigation buttons and a rotary control, providing immediate visibility and access to key configuration parameters.
