This is possible because the duplicator will record onto 25 separate SD cards in all SD, HD and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p60 in widely used H.264 or latest H.265 compression so you get amazing quality and high frame rates but with low enough data rates that you can use cheap cards and get a long record duration.  \nBlackmagic Duplicator 4K is easy to set up and use. The front panel has a built in LCD and control panel so you can change settings and control the unit using buttons, but you can also control your duplicator remotely via Ethernet or by connecting an RS-422 controller. You can even custom build your own controller and control the unit using the Blackmagic HyperDeck Ethernet Protocol.  \nThe built in real time H.265 video encoder records high quality video on inexpensive SD cards in video formats up to Ultra HD 2160p60, so you can record amazing Ultra HD video without having to use the fastest cards available. With the latest Blackmagic Duplicator 4K version 1.2 software, we’ve added H.264 compression so you can also record H.264 files for greater compatibility!  \nBlackmagic Duplicator 4K is 1 rack unit high which means you can daisy chain a bank of units in a portable rack system and take them with you on location so you can always record on hundreds of SD cards at once.  \nThis instruction manual contains all the information you need to start using your Blackmagic Duplicator 4K.  \nPlease check the support page on our website at [www.blackmagicdesign.com](www.blackmagicdesign.com) for the latest version of this manual and for updates to your Blackmagic Duplicator 4K’s software.
