Getting Started
Plugging in Power
Getting started is as simple as plugging in power and connecting your signal input and output.
To supply power, plug in a standard IEC power cable to your Teranex Mini converter’s power
input on the rear panel. You can also power your Teranex Mini via Ethernet by plugging into a
compatible Ethernet switch that supports PoE+, or ‘power over Ethernet plus’.
SDI to HDMI 12G
Teranex Mini Converters support 12G-SDI data rates so will automatically
switch between SD, HD and Ultra HD all the way up to 2160p60.

Connect power to your Teranex Mini converter using a standard IEC power cable.
Power can also be supplied via a PoE+ compatible Ethernet switch.
Plugging in Video
Plug your source video into your Teranex Mini converter’s video input and plug the video output
into your destination equipment. Video input and output varies by converter. Depending on
your Teranex Mini model, you may have the option of SDI, HDMI, component, composite or
S-video input or output.
Plugging in Audio
If you’re using embedded audio in SDI or HDMI, audio is already transported via the video
input. If using external digital or analog audio, plug into the XLR connectors. The ‘R’ channel
XLR connector can be used for timecode. Some Teranex Mini devices support RCA analog
audio or optical audio. Refer to the individual converters detailed in this manual for
moreinformation.
