Make your existing HDMI monitor compatible with a Fairlight console by utilizing the Blackmagic Design Fairlight HDMI Monitor Interface, a compact video signal converter that changes the Ethernet data from a Fairlight Console Channel Control to standard HDMI format. It also features an Ethernet/SDI input switch to select the SDI input for lip sync checks.
In addition to the HDMI Type-A output for connection to your HDMI display, this interface incorporates two SDI outputs to allow hookup to a remote SDI monitor. LEDs are present for easy verification of valid Ethernet and SDI input signal. Configuration and updates are handled through USB and power is provided via the included external power supply.
Use HDMI Monitors with Fairlight Consoles
