Magewell Eco Capture Quad SDI M.2
Four simultaneous 3G-SDI channels in M.2 2280 — high-density multi-camera SDI capture for compact production servers.
- Four simultaneous 3G-SDI inputs — capture four independent SDI channels at once from a single M.2 2280 card
- High-density broadcast ingest — four professional SDI channels from one M.2 slot in a compact system
- All four channels active simultaneously and independently — each presenting as a separate UVC device
- SD-SDI, HD-SDI and 3G-SDI support per channel — up to 1080p60 on all four channels at once
- Designed for sports replay servers, multi-camera broadcast computers and OB vehicle embedded systems
- Magewell SDK for four-channel simultaneous capture application development on compact broadcast platforms
Four SDI Channels, One M.2 Slot
The Eco Capture Quad SDI M.2 is the highest-density SDI capture solution in M.2 form factor — four independent 3G-SDI channels from a single slot. Four simultaneous broadcast-quality SDI channels, permanently integrated inside a compact system without consuming any USB ports.
Four-channel SDI capture enables multi-camera production workflows in embedded and compact systems that would otherwise require rack-mounted PCIe cards or multiple external devices.
Sports Replay and Production Applications
The primary application for four-channel SDI capture in compact form factor is sports production — instant replay servers capturing multiple camera angles simultaneously. Capturing four angles (close-up, wide, off-side, technical) provides comprehensive replay capability from a portable, compact system.
The M.2 form factor means this four-channel SDI capability travels inside purpose-built replay laptops and portable production units rather than requiring rack-mounted equipment.

The Quad SDI M.2 is designed for multi-camera broadcast applications where four SDI channels must be captured simultaneously inside a compact production system.
Sports Instant Replay Systems
Capture four camera angles simultaneously — wide, tight, angle, action — for immediate replay on broadcast and in-venue screens. Four independent SDI channels from one compact replay computer.
Motorsport Multi-Camera Capture
Four simultaneous camera angles for rally, circuit racing and motorsport — leader, pursuer, aerial and trackside all captured from a single compact production computer.
OB Vehicle Quad-Camera Production
OB vehicles with four-camera SDI setups can permanently integrate four-channel capture inside the vehicle production computer — replacing four external USB devices with a single M.2 card.
Multi-Channel Broadcast Ingest
Broadcast ingest servers receiving four simultaneous programme feeds can use the Quad SDI M.2 as the core ingest engine inside compact server hardware.
Major Event Multi-Camera Archive
Large-scale events requiring simultaneous four-camera SDI capture for archive and compliance can use the Quad M.2 inside compact event recording systems.
Venue Four-Camera Production System
Fixed venues capturing four camera views permanently for replay, statistics and broadcast contribution can integrate four-channel SDI capture inside the venue production infrastructure.
Four-Camera Film Reference Capture
Film productions with four cameras capturing reference and BTS content can use the Quad SDI M.2 inside a compact production laptop for continuous four-angle recording.
Broadcast Replay Server Development
Technology developers building portable replay systems and sports analysis platforms can use the Quad SDI M.2 as the capture engine inside custom compact hardware.
Multi-Camera Scientific Monitoring
Experiments requiring simultaneous capture from four cameras — high-speed phenomena from multiple angles — can integrate four-channel SDI capture inside compact analysis computers.
