The Blackmagic Design Videohub 80x80 12G is a professional-grade video routing solution designed to meet the needs of high-end broadcast and post-production facilities. With 80 12G-SDI inputs and 80 12G-SDI outputs, this router enables the flexible management and distribution of SD, HD, and Ultra HD video signals, making it ideal for large-scale video infrastructures that require reliable and efficient routing.
80x80 12G-SDI Routing:
The Videohub 80x80 offers 80 12G-SDI inputs and 80 12G-SDI outputs, allowing for the simultaneous routing of video signals across multiple sources and destinations. This high-capacity design is perfect for facilities that require a robust solution to handle numerous video streams, whether for live production, post-production, or broadcast operations. The 12G-SDI technology supports resolutions up to 2160p60, ensuring compatibility with modern Ultra HD workflows while also supporting legacy formats like SD and HD.
12G-SDI Technology for Ultra HD and Beyond:
The inclusion of 12G-SDI allows for the transmission of Ultra HD video over a single cable, reducing the complexity of multiple cable runs. It also supports long-distance cable runs with high signal integrity, making it ideal for large facilities or remote installations. With 12G-SDI, the Videohub is future-proof, ready to handle high frame rate, high-resolution content well into the future, including 4K DCI and beyond.
Signal Reclocking for Stability:
All SDI inputs on the Videohub 80x80 feature automatic reclocking, which ensures signal stability and integrity, even over long cable runs or with lower-quality signals. This is especially useful in environments with large or complex infrastructures, where signal degradation can occur. The reclocking function automatically cleans and regenerates incoming signals, maintaining the highest possible video quality throughout the routing process.
Compact 4RU Design:
Despite its extensive routing capabilities, the Videohub 80x80 12G is housed in a compact 4RU rack-mountable design, making it easy to integrate into existing rack setups without taking up excessive space. The efficient form factor, combined with its advanced features, makes it suitable for high-density environments such as outside broadcast trucks, control rooms, and large post-production facilities.
Real-Time Control Options:
The Videohub 80x80 12G offers a range of control options for real-time video routing. Users can control the router via the front panel, which features a full-color display and intuitive buttons for direct routing control. Alternatively, the router can be controlled remotely through Ethernet, RS-422, or via Blackmagic Videohub control software, which is available for both macOS and Windows. Additionally, it is compatible with hardware control panels, allowing for more advanced and centralized control in large facilities.
Versatile Application in Broadcast and Post-Production:
The Videohub 80x80 12G is perfectly suited for broadcast environments where large numbers of cameras, switchers, and recording systems need to be interconnected. Its high capacity and flexibility allow it to efficiently route signals between different parts of a production facility, ensuring smooth workflow integration. Similarly, in post-production environments, the router simplifies the management of video signals between editing suites, grading rooms, and VFX departments, making it easier to share resources and equipment.
Ethernet and RS-422 Control:
In addition to front-panel and software control, the Videohub 80x80 supports Ethernet and RS-422 control, providing seamless integration with existing automation systems. This versatility makes it a powerful solution for broadcasters and production facilities that rely on centralized control and automation to streamline workflows.
The Blackmagic Design Videohub 80x80 12G is an ideal solution for any large-scale production or post-production environment that requires high-capacity, high-performance video routing. With support for Ultra HD and future-ready 12G-SDI technology, it ensures efficient signal management across complex video workflows, while its durable, compact design and multiple control options make it easy to integrate into professional setups.
