Unlock Professional Audio from Any 12G-SDI Video Source
The Blackmagic Design Teranex Mini SDI to Audio 12G is the ultimate solution for de-embedding high-quality audio from any SD, HD, or Ultra HD video signal. Expertly designed for broadcast, post-production, and live events, this compact converter allows you to extract audio from any 12G-SDI source up to 4K DCI (4096x2160p) and output it to a vast range of professional audio equipment. Whether you're connecting to audio mixers, analog decks, or sound monitors, the Teranex Mini provides the connectivity and reliability you need for a seamless workflow.
Versatile Audio Connectivity
Experience unparalleled flexibility with a comprehensive set of audio outputs. The Teranex Mini features two full-size professional XLR connections that can be switched between two channels of balanced analog audio or four channels of AES/EBU digital audio. Additionally, it offers two channels of unbalanced analog line-level audio via standard RCA connectors and optical audio through a TOSLINK S/PDIF output. A 12G-SDI loop-through output is also included, allowing you to pass the original video signal downstream to other equipment without degradation.
Robust Design for Professional Environments
Built for demanding environments, the Teranex Mini boasts an intelligent thermal design with crossflow cooling to ensure reliable, cool operation, even when multiple units are rack-mounted side-by-side. Its compact form factor is perfect for portable racks, broadcast trucks, or desktop use. You can mount up to three units in an optional 1U 19" rack tray for a clean, integrated setup. Power is simple and reliable, with a built-in 90-240V power supply (requiring a standard IEC cable) and support for Power over Ethernet (PoE) for single-cable installations.
Advanced Control and Monitoring
Take full command of your conversions with flexible control options. The standard front panel includes mini switches for quick, on-the-fly settings changes. For enhanced control and visual feedback, you can upgrade to the optional Teranex Mini Smart Panel, which adds a color LCD, spin knob, and push buttons. This allows you to monitor audio levels, verify timecode, and see the video standard being converted in real-time. For larger setups, the included Converter Utility software lets you manage all your Teranex Minis remotely over Ethernet from a Mac or Windows computer.
