Magewell Showcase New Products In USB Capture And Pro Convert Lines At The 2025 NAB Show

Magewell, developer of innovative, high-performance video I/O and IP workflow solutions, unveil new additions to their USB Capture and Pro Convert product lines at NAB 2025.
NEW Modator Ultra Encode SDI Plus Module
The Modator family brings the reliability and low-latency performance of Magewell’s standalone encoders and decoders to a scalable, high-density, modular, rackmount enclosure. Intended for permanent installations where hot-swap and redundant power are required, Modator sets the bar for high-performance AV.
The Modator Ultra Encode SDI Plus Module features exceptional 4Kp30 encoding capabilities that enable simultaneous multi-protocol streaming, file-based recording onto built-in storage on the module, and other advanced features.
NEW USB Capture SDI 4K Pro
With the plug-and-play USB Capture SDI 4K Pro, computers can capture SDI signals of up to 4096x2160 (including 3840x2160 Ultra HD) at 60fps with 4:2:2 chroma fidelity. With on-board FPGA processing and leveraging the USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 interface, users will enjoy pristine video capture while minimizing CPU usage without need for an external power source. The USB Capture SDI 4K Pro is an ideal solution for applications such as streaming, video conferencing, live production, immersive presentations and more.
New Pro Convert IP to USB
The new Pro Convert IP to USB will make its debut at NAB. A plug-and-play device, it enables computers, including laptops, to capture an NDI®, NDI® HX or streaming source through a USB interface with no additional power source required. It is ideal for use in conference rooms, production studios, and in environments where users' software does not natively support NDI® or other IP protocols and/or the installation of additional software is not permitted.
New Director One
Making its North American premier at the 2025 NAB Show, Director One has a built-in 4G modem and dedicated 4G and WiFi antennas to keep users seamlessly connected, ensuring uninterrupted streaming and control for flawless production experiences. Director One combines multi-input switching, graphics, streaming, recording, and monitoring all in one powerful device with a premium 7”, 800 nit AMOLED display.
