Blackmagic Design 6G SFP Optical Module

6G optical SFP module for SD, HD, and Ultra HD fiber video workflows

The Blackmagic Design 6G SFP Optical Module is a compact optical transceiver designed to add fiber connectivity to compatible Blackmagic and professional broadcast equipment with an SFP cage. It enables high-quality video signal transport over optical fiber for broadcast facilities, live production environments, and professional AV installations.

This module supports 6G data rates for SD, HD, and Ultra HD video and uses duplex LC fiber connectors for optical transmission. By converting supported video signals to fiber, it allows reliable long-distance signal transport while maintaining the integrity required for professional production workflows.

The small SFP form factor allows the module to integrate directly into compatible Blackmagic hardware such as Studio Camera systems, Teranex Converter products, and ATEM production switchers that support optical SFP connectivity. This design makes it easy to incorporate fiber infrastructure into modern production systems without requiring additional conversion hardware.

With support for singlemode fiber connections and standard SFP interfaces, the module is well suited for studio installations, broadcast facilities, and mobile production setups that require stable optical links between cameras, converters, and switching systems.
