Review on πŸ” J-Tech Digital Premium Quality SDI Splitter 1x4: High-Performance Solution for SD-SDI, HD-SDI, 3G-SDI with Long-Distance Support (1320 Ft)! by Jose Miller

Revainrating 2 out of 5

does not quite meet the full 3G-SDI/1080p60 specification as advertised.

If I was only working at 1080p30 and below I would think that would be fine. Since I'm pushing the boundaries of the units, I've decided to bring them back. I urgently ordered ten of these splitters to support a live event where my team was essentially building a video production truck from parts in the office. Parameter. My layout depended on using them to separate multiple sources for a live feed switcher and a second switch that should send video back to backstage monitors and on-set monitors used for the camera and actors were visible. While processing signals from six laptops feeding a switcher with graphics, the splitters feeding the monitors on set intermittently missed the signal, resulting in flickering on the monitors, which is totally unacceptable for this mission-critical project for a large corporate client . I overcame this issue by downsizing our feeds from 1080p60 to 1080p30. The J-Tech splitters performed well in these conditions and have been performing great ever since.

Pros
  • plug and play; Robust metal housing; Free lifetime technical support and 1 year warranty from J-Tech Digital!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
