Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this work with Multi Mode fiber? Has anyone tried?

A: I have not tried this, but the adapter does not come with a SFP module so it would be worth a try. They recommend SMF because it loses less than MMF. I used 10Gtek 10G-SFP-LR modules and they work great. Blackmagic says it works with any SFP modules so I imagine it will work with MMF but no guarantees.

Q: 2. Will this work as an NDI input in vmix?

A: The BG-VPTZ-HSU3 is not NDI capable.

Q: 3. Is there a rack shelf accessory for this?

A: The ShieldRock Rack10 works well. You can also add-on a single power supply, power splitters, and DC barrel cables if you want it all super-organized.

Q: 4. Does this support Talkback on the ATEM TV Studio 4K?

A: Yes it is compatible with the ATEM Talkback system.

Q: 5. What is the size of the DC power connector, is it a 2.1mm locking?

A: The Blackmagic Design PSUPPLY-INT12V10W Power Supply for Mini Converters power supply's barrel is: inner diameter 2.5mm / outer diameter 5.5mm.

Q: 6. On the transmit end, will the SDI out work as a loop out of the SDI input, or is it strictly wired to only work with the fiber output?

A: The SDI Out is not a loop but an output from the fiber.

Q: 7. Is this compatible with Blackmagic Design ATEM Camera Converter?

A: Yes, it is compatible with the ATEM Camera Converter. You will still need to get the Optical Module Adapter separately.

Q: 8. So for BM Studio 4k Pro Cam, do I just need this, fiber cable, and 12G SFP Optical Module to get to ATEM Switcher?

A: The Blackmagic Design Mini Converter Optical Fiber 12G-SDI is a bi-directional optical fiber to 12G SDI signal convertor. So if you are planning on outputting an SDI signal from the BM Studio 4k Pro and converting it to fiber this convertor would work well, however you would also need an SFP adapter such as the Blackmagic Design 12G SFP Optical Module Adapter, and SFP receiver on the receiving end of the signal as well.

Q: 9. Is this camera compatible with the ATEM mini ?

A: Yes it is.

Q: 10. Does it come with a power supply?

A: Yes.
