Professional 4K Capture for the Modern Workflow

The Datavideo CAP-4 is a high-performance HDMI to USB-C capture solution designed for creators, gamers, and broadcast professionals. Capable of handling uncompressed UHD 4K60 video, it allows you to bring the superior image quality of high-end cameras, gaming consoles, or video switchers directly into your computer. Whether you are recording a masterclass, editing high-resolution footage, or hosting a high-stakes videoconference, the CAP-4 ensures your signal remains sharp and fluid.

High-Bandwidth Performance with USB 3.2 Gen 2

Engineered for speed, the CAP-4 utilizes a USB 3.2 Gen 2 interface to provide a massive 10 Gb/s video output bandwidth. This high-speed connection significantly reduces latency, making it an ideal choice for live streaming on platforms like YouTube, Twitch, and OBS. The compact, rugged housing is built to withstand the demands of daily travel, fitting easily into a laptop bag for high-quality production on the go.

Seamless Monitoring and Audio Control

Efficiency is built into the hardware. The CAP-4 features an HDMI loop-through output, allowing you to view your source on a primary monitor without any delay while the USB-C port handles the capture. For audio enthusiasts, a physical toggle switch lets you choose between the digital audio embedded in your HDMI signal or a dedicated 3.5mm analog stereo input—perfect for adding a high-quality external microphone or mixer feed to your stream.

Universal Compatibility and Ease of Use

The CAP-4 is a true plug-and-play device, recognized instantly by major operating systems including Windows, macOS, and Linux. Because it is bus-powered through the USB-C port, there is no need for an external power brick, simplifying your desktop setup or mobile rig. It is the ultimate bridge for transforming any professional HDMI source into a high-fidelity USB webcam or recording device for Zoom, Teams, and professional broadcast software.
