Magewell to demo Pro Convert devices and Xmit family at InfoComm
Attendees are invited to visit the stand to explore Magewell's entire lineup of innovative solutions. Magewell, a developer of high-performance video I/O and IP workflow solutions, is set to unveil the latest additions to its Pro Convert product line and introduce an entirely new family of devices at InfoComm 2025, taking place in Orlando, Florida from June 11 to 13. Visitors will have the opportunity to see live demonstrations of the company's full product range and receive guidance from Magewell's team of AV experts. Among the highlights is the Pro Convert IP to USB, first introduced at NAB and now making its InfoComm debut. This plug-and-play device allows users to capture NDI, NDI HX, or other IP-based streams via a USB connection without the need for external power. It provides a seamless solution for environments such as conference rooms and production studios where software may not natively support IP protocols or the installation of additional applications is restricted. Also being previewed at the show is the Pro Convert Xmit AIO, the first device in Magewell's new Xmit family. Designed as a versatile encoder/decoder, the standalone unit can convert one channel of SDI or HDMI to or from NDI HX formats. With support for 4Kp60 encoding, the Xmit AIO addresses a key demand from users seeking high-resolution IP streaming over 1Gbps networks. Its dual functionality makes it an adaptable solution for live production and professional AV workflows reliant on NDI HX. Magewell invites InfoComm attendees to explore these new offerings alongside its full suite of solutions, engineered to deliver the performance, flexibility, and quality required in modern AV environments.

Magewell expands Capture device lineup with USB Capture SDI 4K Pro
New model utilises a 20 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface for seamless 12G SDI capture without requiring drivers or external power. Magewell, a developer of high-performance video I/O and IP workflow solutions, has introduced the USB Capture SDI 4K Pro, the latest addition to its range of capture devices. This compact, plug-and-play unit allows PCs to capture SDI signals at up to 4K resolution and 60 frames per second through a standard USB 3.2 connection. The USB Capture SDI 4K Pro continues Magewell's tradition of high-quality USB capture solutions. It supports SDI signals up to 4096×2160 resolution, including 3840×2160 Ultra HD, at 60fps with 4:2:2 chroma fidelity via a USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 interface. The device delivers seamless video capture with minimal CPU usage and requires no external power source. Beyond 4K capabilities, the USB Capture SDI 4K Pro is versatile, handling various video formats up to 12G and frame rates up to 240fps. It also captures two channels of embedded audio or analogue audio via a 3.5mm Line In interface, while embedded audio can be extracted and output through a 3.5mm Line Out interface. The unit is FPGA-based, ensuring efficient performance without burdening the PC's CPU, though it requires a 20 Gbps USB 3.2 Gen 2×2 connection for optimal operation. Designed for ease of use, the device features a driver-free setup and automatic input signal format detection, ensuring a true plug-and-play experience. It is compatible with Windows, MacOS, Linux and ChromeOS. Additionally, Magewell provides free USB Capture Utility software, enabling users to adjust capture parameters, update firmware, and manage logs. James Liu, VP of Engineering at Magewell, said: 'The USB Capture SDI 4K Pro is a high-performer that carefully manages bandwidth to achieve amazing signal quality. This is a wonderful addition to the USB Capture family that will empower professionals and creatives to work with higher resolutions as they continue to push the boundaries of technology with their skills.'
