HDMI to 3G/HD/SD SDI Converters
Inputs and Outputs
• HDMI In – Connect your video source to the HDMI Input. BrightEye 83 and 83-F support all of
the 3G, HD and SD standards listed in the chart in the “Using the BrightEye Control Application”
Note: HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) is a content encryption system
for HDMI. It is meant to prevent copyright content from being copied. Protected content,
like a movie on a Blu-Ray disc is encrypted by its creator. Devices that want to display the
protected content, like a television, must have an authorized key in order to decode the
signal and display it. The entity that controls the HDCP standard strictly limits the kinds of
devices that are allowed decryption keys. Devices that decrypt the content and provide an
unencrypted copy are not allowed.
• SDI Outputs – Two identical SDI outputs are provided for feeding destinations that accept
standard definition video signals and 3 Gb/s and 1.5 Gb/s high definition video signals.
• Optical SDI Out (BrightEye 83-F Only) – This output is a 3G, HD or SD SDI signal. It is the
same signal that is on the electrical 3G/HD/SD SDI Out BNCs.
