- No external hardware — clean, permanent SDI capture installation with nothing visible outside the chassis
- Magewell SDK for custom broadcast ingest and embedded SDI application development
Two SDI Channels in Broadcast Quality
The Eco Capture Dual SDI M.2 provides dual-channel professional 3G-SDI capture in M.2 form factor — two broadcast-grade SDI channels permanently embedded inside a compact computer.
In broadcast environments where SDI is the signal standard of choice, having two SDI channels integrated inside a compact system provides sophisticated ingest capability that integrates naturally with existing SDI infrastructure.
Dual SDI for Compact Broadcast Systems
Two simultaneous SDI channels enable dual-angle programme ingest, primary-plus-backup recording and two-source capture from different parts of a venue. Both channels are independent and simultaneously available.
The M.2 form factor is valuable in OB vehicles, compact broadcast servers and rack-mounted systems where the capture hardware must be inside the computing platform, consuming minimal space.

The Dual SDI M.2 is designed for embedded broadcast systems where two SDI feeds must be captured simultaneously within a compact form factor.
OB Vehicle Dual-Camera Capture
OB vehicles with compact embedded computers can capture two SDI camera feeds permanently inside the production computer — no external USB dongles in a mobile broadcast environment.
Sports Venue Two-Angle Capture
Venues with fixed SDI infrastructure can capture two camera angles simultaneously inside embedded venue production computers for replay and streaming systems.
Broadcast News Dual Feed Ingest
News operations with two simultaneous SDI feeds — programme output and B-roll, or two correspondent cameras — can embed dual SDI capture inside compact server hardware.
Primary Plus Backup SDI Recording
Critical broadcasts requiring dual-path recording can receive two independent SDI feeds simultaneously from a single M.2 card.
Dual SDI Medical Theatre Systems
Medical facilities with two SDI cameras in one procedure room — wide field and close-up — can capture both simultaneously inside the embedded theatre computer.
University Broadcast Two-Camera Setup
Higher education broadcast facilities with two-camera SDI setups can integrate dual SDI capture permanently inside the studio production computer.
Industrial Dual-Camera SDI Monitoring
Industrial environments monitoring two aspects of a process via SDI cameras can capture both feeds simultaneously inside a compact industrial PC.
Broadcast Server Development
Broadcast technology developers building multi-channel SDI ingest servers can use the Dual SDI M.2 as the capture engine inside custom compact broadcast hardware.
Two-Camera Reference Capture
Productions capturing reference feeds from two SDI cameras can use the compact embedded Dual SDI M.2 inside a portable production computer.
