4K Supernova offers developers complete flexibility to choose between BNC connectors. With bi-directional connectivity built-in, developers choose whether they want the BNC connectors to be either input, output, 4K, UHD, 2K, HD or SD SDI. Synchronise multiple cards, reduce hardware costs and increase your I/O capabilities. 4K Supernova gives developers more choice and flexibility than ever before.

Synchronising 2 4K Supernova's will create the performance required for capture and playback of 4K/UHD 3G-SDI up to 60 fps with no change to system configuration or cabling.
4K Supernova provides unsurpassed image quality with a 12-bit processing pipeline for all 8/10/12-bit video modes. The hardware design and cross-platform SDK have evolved from 20+ years of continuous development making it extraordinarily reliable. An MR2 routing resource alongside a customisable full-duplex asynchronous DMA engine deliver unrivalled developer flexibility.
4K Supernova has by design the world's lowest-latency providing access to captured video frames with the shortest possible delay. A FIFO mode to protect against dropped frames, bypass relays and a watchdog timer allow developers to plan for the unexpected and ensure that the show does go on.
4K Supernova features 4 bi-directional 3G/1.5G/HD/SD SDI video and audio I/O’s and Reference (INPUT). 4K Supernova EX includes 7.1 surround sound AES/EBU audio I/O, analogue audio output, LTC I/O and RS-422.
The Bluefish444 Windows, Linux and macOS SDK’s share a common API allowing developers to port from one platform to another with greater ease and efficiency. Other common development interfaces are available including DirectShow, Video4Linux2 and Medialooks MPlatform.
4K Supernova comes with a free SDK and free integration support.Bluefish444 have developed IngeSTore as a multi-channel ingest tool, which is available FREE with all 4K Supernova I/O cards. IngeSTore allows capture of up to 4 channels of video with independent format SDI sources simultaneously. Capture to QuickTime, AVI and DVCPRO50/HD codecs for free, with additional codecs available via licensing.
