BZBGear BG-CSA 3G-SDI Capture Device
The CSA is the simple, pocketable way to get an SDI camera into a computer: BNC in, USB 3.0 out, no drivers, and the machine sees a standard UAC/UVC device. Data rate is up to 350 Mbps and it handles 3G, HD and SD-SDI with the usual SMPTE rates.
Audio arrives either embedded in the SDI or on a 3.5 mm analog input, and comes out as stereo 16-bit 48 kHz. The housing is aluminium, it is powered over Micro-USB at 4 watts, and it works with OBS, Potplayer, Skype, Hangouts and similar on Windows, macOS and Linux.
