Q: 1. Is the 4K signal only available on the HDMI output or is there a way to combine the two 3G BNC outputs to form a single 6G output so I can connect it to the Blackmagic 4K Switcher?

A: Using the two 3G-SDI outputs you can get a 4K signal. You would need a product like the AJA 12GM 12G-SDI to/from SDI Muxer/DeMuxer which will allow you to turn Dual 3G-SDI in to a 6G-SDI. Or you can consider a 4K HDMI to 6G-SDI converter. AJA SDI Muxer - https://bhpho.to/2K9BU3T BMD - 4K HMDI to SDI - https://bhpho.to/2rvHgjq

Q: 2. Is the H.264 video signal over ethernet compatible with Blackmagic Switchers? How about Newtek? Trying to get a switcher that works with this new tech!
