Why consider this model?

  • A Windows or Mac production workstation with an SDI source that needs AJA's 12G-SDI 4K workflow over a Thunderbolt 5 expansion chassis, or a simpler HD/OBS path on a compatible host.

Tradeoffs to weigh

  • This is a professional SDI PCIe card inside an external enclosure, not an HDMI input card. Its highest-rate mode requires matching 12G-SDI cabling, Thunderbolt 5 bandwidth, KONA firmware and AJA Control Room; a USB-C-shaped port, lower Thunderbolt generation or HDR-capable output does not establish 4K60 HDR capture.
