How to Configure Blackmagic SMPTE 2110 Converters (Beginner-Friendly Walkthrough)
In this video, I walk through the step-by-step process of configuring Blackmagic SMPTE 2110 converters, including the 2110 IP Mini (IP to HDMI) and the 3x3G SDI converter. This is part of a deeper series on building and understanding a 2110 workflow using Blackmagic gear.
We cover:
• Why you MUST use a 10Gb network switch (not standard 1Gb)
• Initial setup using Blackmagic Converter Utility
• Updating firmware (critical for timing stability)
• Proper device naming and labeling (essential for larger deployments)
• DHCP vs Static IP — and why static becomes important in 2110 environments
• USB vs Ethernet control for administration
• HDMI output levels and audio settings
• Setting reference frame rates (29.97 in this example)
• The importance of PTP (Precision Time Protocol)
• Why only ONE device should be the PTP master
• Setting all other converters to “Follower Only”
• Real-world routing examples using 2110 (any input to any output)
• Using PoE switches (like the UniFi Pro XG 8 PoE)
• Practical workflow tips from live production use
One of the biggest takeaways:
Always label your devices, map your IP addresses, and configure PTP correctly.
Those three steps will save you hours in the field.
I also demonstrate how 2110 allows true network-based routing — sending any input to any output across devices — which eliminates the need for traditional SDI routing infrastructure.
This is the first in a multi-part deep dive into SMPTE 2110, PTP timing, networking, and latency optimization — designed for production companies who want broadcast-level infrastructure without broadcast-truck budgets.
If you’re building or experimenting with 2110 using Blackmagic gear, this series is for you.
Leave a comment with what you’d like covered next — PTP, networking/VLANs, latency reduction, or routing workflows.
