Fiber-Based SDI to HDMI Conversion

The AJA Hi5-Fiber is designed to convert 3G-SDI signals transmitted over single-mode fiber into HDMI output. It uses an ST-style fiber receiver operating at 1310 nm, enabling reliable long-distance signal transport while maintaining high image quality.

Simplified Single-Cable Monitoring

With support for embedded audio and video over fiber, the Hi5-Fiber enables a streamlined workflow where both signals are delivered through a single cable. This makes it ideal for professional environments where clean and efficient cabling is essential.

Audio Integration and Monitoring

The device supports up to 8 channels of embedded SDI audio, which are passed through to the HDMI output. Additionally, it includes 2-channel RCA analog outputs, allowing users to connect external speakers or monitoring equipment without additional de-embedding hardware.

Plug-and-Play Operation

Hi5-Fiber requires no manual configuration for standard operation, making it easy to deploy in fast-paced production environments. It automatically processes incoming fiber signals and converts them to HDMI output for immediate use with compatible displays.

Flexible Workflow Applications

This converter is suitable for a variety of professional use cases including broadcast monitoring, live production, post-production, and remote signal transport. Its fiber-based input makes it especially useful in setups where long cable runs are required without signal degradation.

Compact and Reliable Design

The Hi5-Fiber features a compact form factor that can be mounted behind monitors, in racks, or used on location. It includes a locking power connector for stability and supports universal power input for global deployment.
