Mini Monitor for TB3?

PostMon Feb 11, 2019 9:13 am

Hi there

Is BMD planning to release Thunderbolt 3 Versions of the Mini Monitor? I think it's very due!

Cheers

Via TB3 one might expect 4K, though. NAB, maybe?

Now that the cat #19 is out of the bag, test it as much as you can and use the subforum.

There is too. ;) 12Gsdi and HDMI 2.0 4K... Only a much heavier pricetag.
Remember the 12G hardware for encoding / decoding needs cooling and stuff. So yes maybe there will be a teranex mini 12G TB3. But because they already have the Ultrastudio 4K Extreme. I highly doubt it. :lol:

UltraStudio 4K Extreme 3 is the world’s most advanced capture and playback solution for PCI Express and Thunderbolt computers! It features incredibly fast 40Gb/s Thunderbolt 3, advanced 12G‑SDI and HDMI 2.0 connections for working at up to 60 frames per second with deep color, 12‑bit RGB, support for HDR workflows via HDMI 2.0a and extremely large 4K frame sizes.

Yeah well, For processing the higher bitrates they need a bigger FPGA. And that FPGA does not fit a mini case. So these are the solutions present right now.

Sure in the future they may build a 6G or 12G mini. But at the current point the hardware is there. Only not as mini. ;)
