Description
The AJA HI5-FIBER-R2 converts 3G-SDI transported over singlemode 1310 nm fiber with an ST connector into a standard HDMI signal suitable for HDMI monitors and displays. This compact converter accepts SMPTE-259/292/424 SDI inputs over fiber and provides an HDMI output with embedded audio. The unit is designed for field and studio use where long distance fiber transport must terminate to HDMI monitoring infrastructure.
Key features include support for 3G/HD/SD-SDI over singlemode fiber, HDMI output with up to 8 channels of embedded audio, and a discrete 2-channel RCA audio output for monitoring. The converter supports multiple bit depths including 12-bit processing and 10-bit YCbCr 4:2:2 and 8-bit RGB 4:4:4 output formats. No configuration is required for basic operation and AJA Mini-Config can be used via USB for advanced setup and firmware updates.
Technical performance covers a wide range of video formats including 2K and HD progressive and interlaced frame rates, plus common SD formats. The device converts PsF formats to progressive output where required and supports standard broadcast frame rates up to 60 Hz. Audio is sourced from embedded SDI and can be selected from 16 channels with HDMI embedding or routed to the 2-channel RCA outputs.
Connectivity includes a singlemode ST fiber input for SDI, a full-size HDMI output for display connectivity, and RCA analog outputs for monitoring. Power is supplied by the included universal power adapter rated 100-240V AC and the converter uses a regulated +5V DC 3 W supply internally. USB connectivity enables the use of AJA Mini-Config for format reporting and firmware management.
Typical applications include remote camera monitoring, OB vans, broadcast studios, and presentation systems where fiber transport is required and HDMI displays are available. The HI5-FIBER-R2 is suitable for terminating long-haul fiber runs to local HDMI monitors while preserving embedded multichannel audio. It also fits on camera rigs or behind monitors due to its compact footprint.
Installation is straightforward – place the converter near the display, connect the singlemode fiber to the ST connector, attach the HDMI cable to the monitor and plug in the universal power supply. The unit includes a 1 m HDMI cable and features a locking power connector to avoid accidental disconnection. A five year warranty and AJA support add confidence for professional deployments.
