Video Adapters

Video adapters enable host-end video acquisition by receiving video signals from cameras or other sources. They perform real-time video format conversion to ensure compatibility with display or processing systems.

Our BlueBird adapters convert SDI to simultaneous USB and HDMI video, also HD-VLC to USB, HDMI and SDI video output. Our SDI/HD-VLC solution guarantees high-quality video transmission over long cable distances. Find out more about long-reach HD video transmission technologies.

Other video adapter models convert 3G/HD-SDI to H.264 IP video or analog video to SDI video output.

BlueBird video adapters complement and work in line with our Harrier AF-Zoom cameras and camera interface board range. Active Silicon also provides custom design services and if you require a custom video adapter designed for your application, don’t hesitate to contact us.
