AJA - 'IP25-R 4K SMPTE ST 2110 To 12G-SDI/HDMI Converter'
High Performance 4K SMPTE ST 2110 to 12G-SDI/HDMI ConverterThe AJA IP25-R is a next-generation IP converter engineered to seamlessly bridge SMPTE ST 2110 IP video networks with traditional SDI and HDMI infrastructures, making it an ideal choice for professional broadcast, production, and live event environments. Featuring dual 10/25 GigE network ports, four 12G-SDI BNC outputs, and two HDMI 2.0 outputs, the IP25-R delivers pristine, low-latency video up to 4K DCI (4096x2160p60) with advanced HDR metadata handling and full SMPTE compliance. Its robust design, intuitive browser-based interface, and flexible routing capabilities make the IP25-R the perfect solution for facilities looking to integrate hybrid SDI/IP workflows while maintaining uncompromised signal quality and reliability.
Rugged, Rack Ready Design with Flexible Configuration
durable aluminium enclosureThe IP25-R is housed in a durable aluminium enclosure, ideal for both portable “throw-down” use and high-density rackmount installations. Up to three units can be mounted side-by-side in a single 1RU shelf—perfect for space-constrained environments. With our 3RU DRM2-Plus rackmount frame, redundant power can be provided for up to six IP25-Rs!
For fast setup, the front-facing USB-C port supports AJA’s free eMini-Setup application for initial network configuration. Multicast setup, internal routing, and output specific functions are accessed via the WebUI. Designed with active front-to-back cooling, the IP25-R ensures reliable, long-term performance in demanding broadcast and production locations.

Intuitive Web-Based Control
Configured to your workflowThe IP25-R features a built-in web server that hosts a user-friendly, browser-based interface (WebUI) for easy configuration and control. Through the intuitive WebUI, users can quickly set up IP parameters, manage PTP synchronisation, configure external control options, and monitor the video being fed to the outputs.
The interface also allows for flexible signal routing, enabling you to assign any of the four ST 2110 RX inputs to specific SDI or HDMI outputs. Additionally, users can fine-tune HDR metadata and colourimetry settings, as well as replicate output routing internally, making the IP25-R a powerful tool for IP-to-baseband monitoring and signal management.
Dual SFP28 Support
10 GigE/25 GigE and SMPTE ST 2022-7 RedundancyThe IP25-R features two SFP28 cages that are compatible with both 10 GigE and 25 GigE SFP modules, enabling high-bandwidth SMPTE ST 2110 IP video workflows. The unit supports ST 2022-7 hitless switching, ensuring seamless network redundancy for mission-critical IP workflows. (Note: SFPs are not included)
HDR Support
richer coloursHigh Dynamic Range (HDR) dramatically improves image quality by delivering richer colours, brighter highlights, and deeper blacks compared to standard dynamic range (SDR) signals. This results in more vibrant, true-to-life visuals, ensuring your audience experiences content as it was intended.
The IP25-R supports advanced HDR metadata handling, including SDI VPID and HDMI Infoframe signalling, making it ideal for modern HDR workflows. It simplifies the complexities of HDR integration by allowing HDR pass-through with override, using SDP file translation to accurately map HDR metadata to both SDI and HDMI outputs.
This functionality ensures your IP-to-baseband conversion meets today’s HDR delivery requirements, whether for live production, broadcast, or postproduction environments.
