The M|8i is a hardware & software bundle tailor made for Macs with PCIe slots such as the Mac Pro, or in your own Thunderbolt expansion chassis. Simply plug in the M|8i PCIi card into one of the PCIe slots of your Mac and immediately start ingesting eight HD channels or four 4K Channels (check the tech specs page to know the limitations depending on the format and computer) at a cost significantly less than other multichannel solutions.
WHAT'S INCLUDED?
- 8x licenses of MovieRecorder
- 1x Dongle with the software licenses above (no changes or splits)
- 1x Video card with 8x configurable in/out + 1x Ref input (or Audio LTC) on Micro BNC connectors (DELTA-12G-elp-h 4c)
- 1x High Profile Bracket (so you can place the Video card in a Mac Pro or another expansion chassis)
- 9x BNC Female to Micro BNC (HD-BNC) Cable - 1'
WARNING
The card has 8 SDI in/out connectors. 4 connectors are 3G, and 4 connectors are 12G. So the card can do maximum 8 channels of HD, but 4 channels of 4K. The card is capable of doing four channels of UHD50/60p when used in an internal PCIe slot, but if you want to use it in a Thunderbolt chassis, you will be able to do maximum 2 channels of UHD50/60p, or 4 channels of UHD25/30p, or 7 channels of HD60p, or 8 channels of HD50p.... Read more on the tech specs page.
If you want to combine HD and 4K, note that if you use one 12G connector to receive a 4K signal, you'll have only 4 connectors available for HD. You won't be able to do one 4K and seven HD.
SERIAL NUMBER OR DONGLE ?
Serial numbers are not available with the M|8i. The price include the dongle with the 8 licenses.
ADDING MORE LICENSES TO THE DONGLE?
With the M|8i, the 8 MovieRecorder licenses are provided on a dongle (included), and can thus not be split on different computers. But if you want to run on the same computer for example a license of OnTheAir Video or OnTheAir Video Express, you can ask us to add it to the dongle. A dongle can hold up to 20 licenses.
