Yes! This is exactly how I would want to use these boxes. It saves a ton of cables and less problems with finding the right cable when something goes sideways. Thanks for this video, it really helps!
Looks like ST 2110 is the standard to invest in after the NAB announcements. Both Eurovision and the Olympics will almost completely be on ST 2110. The IP Converter along with the IP presentation converter that was announced at NAB enable everyone to adopt ST 2110 at reasonable price level. Combining a MTP cable that can run multiple fibers on a single cable, you can have a single cable between FOH and the stage for both Audio, video, internet and more.
Only 4K (12G) signals are compressed to 10G to fit into the bandwidth of Cat6A or better. Tho that doesn't concern these boxes which only carry three 3G signals at a total bandwidth of 9G, so no compression here.
Looking at the 4k 2110 gear. But getting comverters for everything is racking up quickly. Waiting for more gear to support it natively. Like an atem 4k 2110...
@@annebokma4637 most platforms don’t even support 4k streaming yet and I get enough people complaining about their internet connection. I don’t think it’ll be necessary any time soon.
@@zephanmoses I wouldn't use the 4k for streaming. But if you can connect over 2110 to an atem and record on NAS. Then you can use 4k for the content upload. Besides should be easier to route connections on the fly. Using one atem for multiple sets, changing configuration to a preset with one button. This ecosystem goes way beyond streaming, and I would prefer native 2110 on the new atem constellation 1me 4k instead of buying a load of SDI 12g to 2110 adapters.
You can send a normal camera control and program feed from your switcher up to stage thru these than you will have the normal Atem camera control via SDI. As far as I know, you could send only one and then use the distribution converter to go to all 3 cameras.
So from my understanding there isn't anything special about the camera control protocol from BMD. I know for a fact that cam control works over the cheapest SDI distribution box so I can't imagine it not working as the Ethernet and signals are bi directional.
@@fightflyers Darn $400 is a good price if they're not too beat up. I would assume that CC does come back to the cameras but I don't know enough about how that information is translated when it converts from SDI to IP to travel over the ethernet cable.
2110 is definitely gaining some steam. Who is working with this workflow?

@@JaredNaude yea lots of fun stuff in the works.
Since bmd’s 2110 is compressed, this means it is compressing those signals to send the to the second box, then de-compressing them….🤔

Do you get Camera Control through this setup?
@@Max-cu8yf I’d have to check on that one. I don’t use Blackmagic cameras so I may need to find out from someone else.

Hey you two! Thanks. I will definitely check this out. Yes, camera control through the sdi distributor works. I already have this implemented.
@@tim_mueller awesome good to know!
@@Max-cu8yf sweet thanks for confirming!
😢 B&H had a used set for under $400 each and i didnt get them😢.
