Overview

The AJA IP25-R is a next-generation IP Converter that seamlessly bridges SMPTE ST 2110 IP video networks with traditional SDI and HDMI infrastructures. Engineered for professional broadcast, production, and live event workflows, the IP25-R offers dual 10/25 GigE network ports, 4x 12G-SDI BNC outputs, and 2x HDMI 2.0 outputs, delivering pristine video up to 4K DCI (4096x2160p60) with ultra-low latency.

Built for today’s demanding IP production environments, the IP25-R offers powerful conversion capabilities with full SMPTE compliance, making it ideal for integration into hybrid SDI/IP facilities. De-encapsulate ST 2110 video, audio, and ancillary data with frame-accurate synchronization and output them via baseband SDI and HDMI for confidence monitoring, playout, or routing.

The IP25-R features dual SFP28 cages for ST 2022-7 seamless protection switching, ensuring uninterrupted signal delivery across redundant IP networks. This makes the IP25-R an ideal choice for critical applications such as network operations centers (NOCs), OB trucks and remote production, live event monitoring, stadium and in-venue AV systems, and broadcast control rooms.

Configure the IP25-R through an intuitive web browser interface, with options for both in-band control over the media network and out-of-band control via the RJ45 1 GigE port. This simplifies deployment in almost any IP infrastructure.

Whether you're upgrading broadcast infrastructure or deploying IP-based monitoring in the field, the IP25-R offers a reliable, compact, and standards-compliant solution for ST 2110 IP to baseband conversion. Perfect for facilities moving to IP workflows while maintaining SDI/HDMI compatibility.

Rugged, Rack Ready Design with Flexible Configuration

The IP25-R is housed in a durable aluminum 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.

Connectivity

Workflow Examples

OB Truck SMPTE ST 2110 Camera and Switcher Monitoring Solution

In this IP-based stadium workflow, live camera feeds and the video switcher connect to redundant SMPTE ST 2110 network switches, which deliver synchronized IP video, audio, and metadata directly into the IP25-R's dual SFP inputs for seamless ST 2110 reception and conversion.

  • 2x HDMI 2.0 outputs feed directly to 2x HDMI monitors, up to 4K 4096x2160p.

  • SDI 1 output feeds in the AJA ColorBox (or OG-ColorBox) for color verification. The ColorBox then distributes the signal via SDI and HDMI to monitors.

  • SDI 2, 3, and 4 outputs directly to SDI monitors.

SMPTE ST 2110 to UHD SDI  Incorporating HDMI Confidence Monitoring

The IP25-R enables seamless conversion of uncompressed SMPTE ST 2110 UHDp60 (3840x2160) video to your existing on-site SDI infrastructure. In this setup, the converted ST 2110 signals are routed through an AJA KUMO router, allowing flexible signal distribution throughout your facility. For added assurance, the IP25-R features dual HDMI outputs, ideal for real time signal confidence monitoring in machine rooms or engineering environments.

  • RX 1 routes internally to SDI 1 and HDMI 1. SDI 1 feeds into the router for wider signal distribution, and HDMI 1 is used for confidence monitoring.

  • RX 2 routes internally to SDI 2 and HDMI 2. SDI 2 feeds into the router for wider signal distribution, and HDMI 2 is used for confidence monitoring.

SMPTE ST 2110 Multi-viewer Monitoring and SDI Signal Distribution

Easily monitor and route SMPTE ST 2110 UHDp60 signals through your existing SDI infrastructure using the IP25-R and KUMO router. This workflow enables real time multi-viewer monitoring, SDI distribution, and HDMI output for confidence monitoring, providing a seamless bridge from IP-based video to traditional baseband environments.

  • RX1 routes internally to HDMI 1, which then outputs to an HDMI monitor. It also routes to SDI, which feeds into the KUMO router and SDI infrastructure.

  • RX2 routes internally to HDMI 2, which then outputs to an HDMI monitor. It also routes to SDI, which feeds into the KUMO router and SDI infrastructure.

SMPTE ST 2110 HD 1080p60 to SDI Infrastructure Workflow Solution with HDMI Monitoring

Seamlessly integrate SMPTE ST 2110 HD 1080p60 IP video into your existing SDI infrastructure, with HDMI outputs for real time confidence monitoring.

  • RX 1-4 routes internally to SDI out 1-4 and into SDI infrastructure.

  • HDMI out 1 and 2 can be fed by existing RX signals for confidence monitoring.

Intuitive Web-Based Control

The 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 synchronization, 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 colorimetry 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 for 10 GigE/25 GigE and SMPTE ST 2022-7 Redundancy

The 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

High Dynamic Range (HDR) dramatically improves image quality by delivering richer colors, 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 signaling, 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.
