Unrivalled Optical Fibre Connectivity

The Blackmagic Design ATEM Camera Converter is a game-changer for live productions, offering exceptional connectivity over long distances. With a single-mode optical fibre pair and LC connectors, you can place cameras up to an incredible 45km (147,000 feet) from your switcher. Unlike SDI cables with a 90m limit, optical fibre is lightweight, cost-effective, and widely available—perfect for taking your cameras closer to the action.

Stay Connected with Integrated Talkback

Effective communication is vital for live events. The ATEM Camera Converter includes talkback functionality using affordable PC headsets or iPhone-compatible headphones. Talkback channels are embedded within the optical fibre feed, ensuring seamless interaction between camera operators and directors. The built-in push-to-talk (PTT) and volume controls make communication effortless, even in high-pressure environments.

Reliable Power Options for Any Scenario

Power your productions confidently with flexible options:

12V Input: Compatible with a wide range of DC sources, from standard power supplies to car batteries.
Built-In Battery: Provides hours of operation and automatically kicks in as a fail-safe during power interruptions. It’s like having a built-in UPS, ensuring uninterrupted performance when it matters most.

On-Air Awareness with Built-In Tally

Never lose track of your camera’s live status. The ATEM Camera Converter supports tally lights using SDI’s open standard tally packets from any ATEM switcher. Simply connect the program feed via the return optical fibre, assign the camera number, and stay in control with the two built-in tally LEDs. For even more visibility, a red tally border can appear on external monitors connected to the HDMI or SDI outputs.

Portable and Versatile Design

Designed for professionals on the move, the ATEM Camera Converter offers unmatched portability:

Belt Clip: Snap it onto your belt and stay mobile while shooting.
Tripod Mounting: Secure it beside your camera for static setups.
Whether you're in a remote location or powered by mains electricity, the ATEM Camera Converter adapts to your needs with ease.
