Q: 8. What does Dual link or Quad Link SDI Output mean? I want to use this with the Canon XC10 and send the 4K signal to a monitor with a single SDI input.

A: There are a few different strengths of SDI signal. The strength needed for 4k at 60fps is 12G-SDI. Some devices achieve 12G-SDI by having four 3G-SDI connections, which is what Quad Link SDI Output means and what this AJA unit offers. To achieve 4k at 30fps you need 6G-SDI, which some devices get by having two 3G-SDI connections, that is a Dual Link connection.To achieve this conversion with a single SDI cable you will need a device that converts to a single 12G-SDI output. The Blackmagic Design Teranex Mini HDMI to SDI 12G Converter is what you would need for this application.
