Product Information

Full details

The Blackmagic Videohub Mini 6x2 12G is an essential tool for professional broadcast engineers, video editors, and live streaming technicians who need a reliable, zero-latency solution for routing high-resolution signals. It excels at streamlining complex workflows by allowing users to toggle between six 12G-SDI sources across two outputs without manual cable swapping, though users should note it is limited to a 6x2 configuration, which may not suffice for larger scale studio installations.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does this device require a power adapter?

Yes, it requires an external power supply to operate, which should be connected to the dedicated power input on the rear of the unit.

Can I control this router from a distance?

Yes, you can connect the router to your local area network via Ethernet and use Blackmagic Videohub Control software to manage the device remotely.

Will this handle standard HD signals?

Yes, the Videohub is backwards compatible and handles all video standards from SD to DCI 4K.

Is the USB-C port used for power or data?

The USB-C port is primarily for data, configuration, firmware updates, and the webcam output function.

Does this router perform signal format conversion?

No, this is a clean video router. It passes signals through exactly as they are received and does not convert frame rates or resolutions.

Troubleshooting

No signal detected on the output device

Verify that your SDI cables are rated for 12G-SDI and securely seated. Check the input source settings on the Videohub front panel.

Video signal flickering or dropped frames

The cable run may be too long. Ensure the unit's re-clocking is active and consider shorter, high-quality SDI cables for the run.

Device is not recognized by the computer

Check the USB-C cable connection and ensure you are using a data-capable cable. Verify that the latest Blackmagic Desktop Video software is installed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the Videohub, connect your SDI sources to the inputs on the rear panel. Outputs should be connected to your destination devices such as monitors, recorders, or switchers. For network integration, connect the Ethernet port to a local switch to utilize the Videohub software control on a workstation. The unit supports all standard SDI formats; ensure that your cables are rated for 12G-SDI to maintain performance at 4K resolution. Care should be taken to keep the ventilation ports clear to prevent overheating. Regularly check the firmware via the USB-C port to ensure compatibility with the latest software updates and features.
