About this product
The Eco Capture SDI 4K Plus M.2 brings 12G-SDI 4K capture into the M.2 form factor. With true 12G-SDI support at the input it captures 4K60 from single-link cameras — the format the latest professional broadcast cameras output natively.
Backward compatibility with 6G, 3G, HD and SD-SDI is built in, so the card adapts to whatever signal a camera delivers without configuration. This makes it useful in mixed-format facilities where the same chassis may need to capture from a 4K cinema camera one day and an older HD studio camera the next.
Common applications include compact 4K broadcast ingest stations, OB-truck workstations needing top-end SDI in a small chassis, and embedded post-production systems where space rules out a full PCIe card. The same FPGA technology as the Pro Capture range means colour reproduction and frame timing are broadcast-grade, not consumer-grade.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Eco Capture SDI 4K Plus M.2 uses an M.2 slot. Check your motherboard manual for available M.2 slots — Eco Capture M.2 cards use the PCIe lanes on the M.2 connector, not SATA, so the slot must support M.2 PCIe.
Yes. Download the Magewell Eco Capture driver from Magewell's website (free). It supports Windows 10/11 and recent Linux kernels. macOS is not currently supported for Eco Capture M.2 cards.
The Eco Capture SDI 4K Plus M.2 accepts 12G-SDI (4K@60fps), 6G, 3G, HD, SD-SDI.
Yes, multiple Eco Capture M.2 cards can be installed in the same system provided there are available M.2 PCIe slots. Each card is independently addressable.
The Eco Capture SDI 4K Plus M.2 works with DirectShow (Windows) and V4L2 (Linux) compatible software, including OBS Studio, vMix, Wirecast and Magewell Capture Express.
