1/3 rack 4x2 12G-SDI router, SD/HD/UHD up to 2160p60, clean switch per output, front SDI in, USB webcam out, compact design for mobile rigs
The Blackmagic Videohub Mini 12G 4x2 is the most compact member of the new Videohub Mini lineup, designed to deliver powerful 12G-SDI routing in the smallest possible footprint. At just 1/3 rack width, this 4-input, 2-output video router is perfect for mobile broadcast kits, desktop installations, and tight spaces in flypacks or control rooms. It supports any combination of SD, HD, and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60, and features advanced SDI re-clocking on all inputs to ensure stable, jitter-free signals-especially useful for long cable runs or complex signal chains. A standout feature is the clean switch capability on each output, allowing seamless source transitions for any connected monitor, encoder, or streaming device.
Despite its small size, the 4x2 model is highly versatile. It includes intuitive front panel controls with fast cut-bus style routing, plus a front-mounted 12G-SDI input that overrides the highest-numbered rear input-perfect for quick emergency gear additions. A USB-C webcam output on the front panel makes it easy to feed SDI video into streaming software or conferencing tools in HD resolution, downconverted automatically if needed. Whether it's for on-the-go video production, a compact monitoring setup, or emergency routing in fast-paced environments, the Blackmagic Videohub Mini 4x2 delivers streamlined control and robust connectivity in a remarkably portable format.
