Signal conversion, distribution and playback hardware for production video work, from one-box show playback to getting 4K down a fibre line to a screen at the far end of a field. The category is centred on the Theatrixx xVision ecosystem of rugged converters and distribution amplifiers, with ADJ also represented, and serves touring video engineers, AV integrators and production companies.

Three sub-categories split the range. Video Signal Converters is the largest, covering HD conversion between 3G-SDI and HDMI, 4K 12G-SDI to and from fibre on opticalCON DUO connectors, and audio de-embedding. Video Splitters holds the distribution amplifiers, in 1:4 and 1:8 formats across 12G-SDI, 3G-SDI and HDMI, plus DMX splitter modules built in the same housing. Media Players covers dedicated playback such as the Theatrixx xPressCue. Work out your signal format and transport first: 3G-SDI for HD rigs, 12G-SDI where 4K is genuinely needed, fibre for long runs, and HDMI for local sources and displays; the converters exist to bridge whichever combination your show throws up.

Mounting, casing and locking cable accessories for the xVision range live in the converter accessories section, and trade accounts are available.
