Blackmagic Design DeckLink IP 100G — 8-Channel Ultra HD SMPTE ST2110 Capture & Playback Card
The Blackmagic Design DeckLink IP 100G is a professional PCIe capture card engineered for direct integration into SMPTE ST2110 IP broadcast infrastructures. It delivers 8 simultaneous channels of Ultra HD video capture and playback via dual QSFP28 optical fiber Ethernet connections, providing full redundancy across all SD, HD, and Ultra HD formats up to 2160p120. Support for Apple ProRes, DNxHD, and 10-bit uncompressed ensures uncompromising image fidelity at every stage of production.
For broadcast engineers and systems integrators evaluating the best SMPTE ST2110 capture card for broadcast servers, the DeckLink IP 100G stands apart with its hardware-isolated frame buffer architecture — effectively functioning as a video-based firewall that prevents rogue software or unauthorized network access from reaching the 2110 IP infrastructure. Whether building GPU-based AI image processing racks, virtual set systems, or high-density broadcast graphics servers, the DeckLink IP 100G for DaVinci Resolve and other NLEs delivers the reliability and throughput professional broadcast demands.
Conforming fully to SMPTE ST2110 — including SMPTE-2110-20 uncompressed video, SMPTE-2110-21 traffic shaping, SMPTE-2110-30 audio, and SMPTE-2110-40 ancillary data — the DeckLink IP 100G maintains video source synchronization via PTP clock and supports NMOS IS-04 and IS-05 for device discovery and connection management. The onboard IP10 codec manages bandwidth for 2160p59.94 and 2160p60 formats with only 8 samples of latency, keeping downstream infrastructure affordable and within standard 10G-per-channel Ethernet limits. Compatible with Mac Pro, Windows, and Linux via PCIe, the card supports DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Media Composer, Premiere Pro, After Effects, and a full range of broadcast automation platforms.
Key Features of the DeckLink IP 100G SMPTE ST2110 Card
- 8-Channel Ultra HD Simultaneous I/O: Enables capture and playback across 8 independent Ultra HD channels at the same time, supporting high-density broadcast server builds and real-time IP video workflows.
- Dual QSFP28 Optical Fiber Connections: Delivers full network redundancy via two 100G optical fiber Ethernet ports, ensuring uninterrupted signal flow in mission-critical live broadcast environments.
- SMPTE ST2110 Full Compliance: Supports SMPTE-2110-20, -21, -30, and -40 standards for independent transport of video, audio, and ancillary data over managed IP networks, with PTP clock synchronization for precise multi-source alignment.
- Hardware Frame Buffer Isolation: Transfers all video and audio through onboard DeckLink frame buffers rather than the host Ethernet stack, creating a video-based firewall that eliminates direct network access by unauthorized software.
- IP10 Codec for 2160p60 Efficiency: Reduces bandwidth for 2160p59.94 and 2160p60 formats to fit within 10G-per-channel limits with only 8 samples of latency, keeping infrastructure costs low without sacrificing quality.
- NMOS IS-04 / IS-05 Support: Integrates into IP broadcast routing ecosystems — devices are discoverable and controllable like traditional SDI router sources, including via Videohub Smart Control.
- Broad Software Compatibility: Works natively with DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, Media Composer, Premiere Pro, Fusion, After Effects, Open Broadcaster, Wirecast, and leading broadcast automation platforms on Mac, Windows, and Linux.
- Free DeckLink SDK Included: Provides full low-level and high-level developer access for custom broadcast application development on Mac, Windows, and Linux at no additional cost.
