The Hi5 HD-SDI/SDI to HDMI Video and Audio Converter from AJA is a device designed to convert SDI or HD-SDI signals to HDMI for driving HDMI monitors. The Hi5 provides 2-channel, RCA-style, audio outputs for the separate monitoring of audio feeds. It also offers a looping SDI/ HD-SDI output, which is useful for connecting additional equipment or to achieve a daisy-chain configuration with multiple monitors running from the same SDI/HD-SDI source.
