UK 3G-SDI and HD-SDI Capture Cards
3G-SDI and HD-SDI Capture Cards for 1080p Video
A 3G-SDI capture card takes 1080p60 video from broadcast cameras, switchers and medical equipment over a single coaxial cable, and also accepts HD-SDI and SD-SDI sources, so one card covers older and newer SDI equipment. Available as PCIe, M.2 and Mini PCIe cards and USB units, with one to eight inputs.
Options include loop-through outputs, embedded SDI audio, on-card H.264 and H.265 encoding on selected models and Windows and Linux SDKs, suited to broadcast recording, surgical video, defence systems and control rooms built around 1080p SDI.
Speak to a video capture specialist to match the channel count and host interface to your SDI system.

What to Specify in a 3G-SDI Capture Card
Our video capture specialists specify every 3G-SDI capture card against the sources, the host system and the software that will use the video. These are the choices we work through with you before recommending a range.
SDI Formats
3G-SDI at 1080p60 with HD-SDI and SD-SDI support for older cameras and switchers.
Channel Count
One to eight inputs per card, so a multi-camera recorder uses a single slot.
Loop-Through
Loop-through passes each feed to a monitor or recorder while it is captured.
Explore Video Capture Cards by Signal and Form Factor
Compare every video capture category by signal, SDI and HDMI standard or form factor, and jump straight to the cards that fit your sources and host system.
