What is SDI?

SDI, which stands for Serial Digital Interface, is a family of digital video interfaces first standardized by SMPTE (Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers). It is commonly used for transmitting uncompressed, unencrypted digital video signals within television broadcast facilities and other professional video applications. SDI standards define various data rates to support different resolutions and frame rates, such as standard definition (SD-SDI), high definition (HD-SDI), and ultra-high definition (3G-SDI, 6G-SDI, 12G-SDI).
