Blackmagic Design DeckLink Duo 2

 

The Blackmagic Design DeckLink Duo 2 is a professional PCIe capture card designed for multi-camera, multi-feed workflows where reliability and format flexibility matter. It consolidates four independent 3G-SDI channels on a single half-length PCIe 2.0 x4 card, and each channel is independently configurable for capture or playback up to 1080p60. That means you can mix ingest and playout across SD and HD sources simultaneously, ideal for broadcast playout, live graphics insertion, and multi-screen signage servers. Precision timing is ensured with a dedicated reference input supporting tri-level sync and black burst, while SDI carries up to 16 channels of embedded audio per stream for simple cable runs. Image fidelity is broadcast-grade with 8-/10-bit YUV 4:2:2 across all modes and 12-bit RGB 4:4:4 available on playback, plus hardware/software conversions for up/down/cross workflows.

 

The card drops into modern Windows, macOS, and Linux systems and integrates with major NLEs and live tools via Desktop Video—so your multi-channel rig behaves predictably across production and post. Engineers deploying the Duo 2 appreciate the clean I/O layout, low 10W power draw, and consistent standards compliance (NTSC/PAL, 720p, 1080i, 1080p including PsF). Whether you’re building a compact ingest server, driving multiple program/ISO records, or feeding key display lines from a single workstation, DeckLink Duo 2 provides broadcast-spec SDI connectivity, dependable sync, and streamlined control in a single card—scaled for real production, not just a spec sheet.
