ATEM Camera Converter can be clipped on to your belt, or

ATEM Studio Converter can be used as four, independent,
bidirectional SDI to Optical Fiber converters

Mounting ATEM Camera Converter

When your camera needs to be mobile, connect your cables to ATEM Camera Converter and then snap
the integrated belt clip on to your belt. For stationary shots, ATEM Camera Converter can be mounted on a
tripod arm with either of its standard 3/8" or 1/4" thread inserts. If you want to sit ATEM Camera Converter
on a desk using its rubber feet, undo the two 2.5 hex socket screws and remove the belt clip.

Standalone Converter Operation

When not being used with ATEM Camera Converters, ATEM Studio Converter can be used as four,
independent, bidirectional SDI to Optical Fiber converters. This might be more convenient than using four
individual mini converters, each with their own external power supply.
When operating in a standalone manner, the ATEM Studio Converter will simultaneously convert SDI input
to optical fiber SDI output and optical fiber SDI input to both SDI and HDMI output as well as AES/EBU
audio output. The four converters are independent and can simultaneously convert different video formats.
Within each of the four converters, the video format being converted must be the same in both directions
of conversion.
Audio channels 1 & 2 can be converted between SDI and optical fiber SDI. The HDMI and AES/EBU
connectors also output audio channels 1 & 2. Audio channels 15 & 16 are always reserved by the ATEM
Studio Converter itself.
