UltraStudio cards support SDI and HDMI mirrored output at the same time, so you can connect a local reference monitor in addition to a remote projector or display.
UltraStudio cards support broadcast resolutions up to 2K (2048x1080).

Why choose a ShowCase?
Reliability.
Every ShowCase includes interface cards and cables that are recommended by professionals and extensively tested by our team. There’s no chance of them coming unplugged mid-show, since ShowCase protects everything inside a sturdy aluminum enclosure.
Security.
Many environments, such as schools and public venues, have strict IT policies that make it hard to acquire a Mac. Or they load all computers down with show-breaking antivirus applications.
ShowCase isn’t a Mac, it’s a production appliance that will be left alone.
Tour-ability.
ShowCase Pro isn’t much bigger than the classic Mac mini dimensions. It fits in a backpack and is plug-and-play for rapid setup. No external adapters required.
