Blackmagic 2110 IP Converter Setup Explained

How to Configure Blackmagic SMPTE 2110 Converters (Beginner-Friendly Walkthrough) In this video, I walk through the step-by-step process of configuring Blackmagic SMPTE 2110 converters, including the 2110 IP Mini (IP to HDMI) and the 3x3G SDI converter. This is part of a deeper series on building and understanding a 2110 workflow using Blackmagic gear. We cover: • Why you MUST use a 10Gb network switch (not standard 1Gb) • Initial setup using Blackmagic Converter Utility • Updating firmware (critical for timing stability) • Proper device naming and labeling (essential for larger deployments) • DHCP vs Static IP — and why static becomes important in 2110 environments • USB vs Ethernet control for administration • HDMI output levels and audio settings • Setting reference frame rates (29.97 in this example) • The importance of PTP (Precision Time Protocol) • Why only ONE device should be the PTP master • Setting all other converters to “Follower Only” • Real-world routing examples using 2110 (any input to any output) • Using PoE switches (like the UniFi Pro XG 8 PoE) • Practical workflow tips from live production use One of the biggest takeaways: Always label your devices, map your IP addresses, and configure PTP correctly. Those three steps will save you hours in the field. I also demonstrate how 2110 allows true network-based routing — sending any input to any output across devices — which eliminates the need for traditional SDI routing infrastructure. This is the first in a multi-part deep dive into SMPTE 2110, PTP timing, networking, and latency optimization — designed for production companies who want broadcast-level infrastructure without broadcast-truck budgets. If you’re building or experimenting with 2110 using Blackmagic gear, this series is for you.
