The NewTek Spark Plus I/O 3G-SDI features Power over Ethernet, a portable form factor that is easy to mount, analog audio input and output, Program and Preview tally LED lights, NDI virtual input, multicast mode, and NDI network identification. This IP video converter is designed for the NewTek open-source NDI standard. It supports up to 1080p60 input and output from NDI to 3G-SDI and from 3G-SDI to NDI. It allows you to connect your camera, webcam, or computer to stream live over the internet or other broadcast platforms. The Spark Plus SDI is controlled via a web-based user interface for configuration and monitoring.

The NDI protocol allows all NDI-compatible video equipment to freely recognize and interact with one another, as long they're connected to the same network. The Spark SDI Plus is designed to stream 3G-SDI video from a video source into a computer or IP-based video workflow for gaming, corporate meetings, broadcast programming, or other streaming media presentations. It also allows you to convert any 3G-SDI source for compatibility with hundreds of NDI-compatible systems, devices, and applications that can be connected on the same network, enabling you to efficiently incorporate that SDI source into IP-based video capture and production workflows. It also encodes and converts NDI signals for output via the 3G-SDI output for editing, recording, and streaming via a computer.
