You can also sync files globally using Blackmagic Cloud, plus view all storage, connection and sync activity in real time on a display connected to the HDMI monitor port. Blackmagic Cloud Dock 4 has 4 10G Ethernet ports, an Ethernet over USB-C port and an internal power supply in a single rack unit making it highly portable network storage that's perfect for high end film and television use.10G Ethernet for editing and global media sharing!Blackmagic Cloud Dock lets you mount media disks from cameras and directly share your media files globally with editors and colorists over a fast 10G Ethernet network without waiting for files to copy! The Blackmagic Cloud Dock syncs and shares media from any SSD disk with Blackmagic Cloud. It even understands proxy workflows, so a whole timeline and its media can be shared in minutes. It features high speed 10G Ethernet connections for extremely fast file access, even with multiple users connected. File access is very low latency, so responsiveness is fast. That's why it's the perfect solution for sharing media files between editors, colorists, audio engineers and VFX artists!Designed for Film and TelevisionBlackmagic Cloud Dock will transform customer's work! It's perfect for film and television because you can record onto SSDs including the super fast U.2 NVMe disks and then use the Blackmagic Cloud Dock to make the disks available on the network for multiple editors and colorists to use. Depending on the brand of SSD used, it even handles massive 12K Blackmagic RAW digital cinema files! SSDs such as the latest 7mm U.2 NVMe disks are super fast, delivering data transfer speeds of up to 900 MB/s! Blackmagic Cloud sync allows you to place docks in different locations so everyone can have a fast local copy of their files. Then each location gets the fastest editing experience possible.Compact Rack Mount DesignBlackmagic Cloud Dock features a compact rack mount design so it is easy to install in a studio with other network equipment or in a DIT cart on-set to immediately mount and share camera files with editors and colorists globally. It features up to four SSD slots so it can host separate SSD disks on your network at the same time. 10G Ethernet ports means you get extremely high performance. There is also an HDMI monitoring output so you can watch a live graphic view of the storage operating on a TV or monitor. Each slot has an LED status light that shows disk activity, so you know when the disk is being accessed. Plus it's easily repairable with each card slot using an individual PCB assembly!AC PowerAn IEC power socket is included for connecting AC power. All international AC voltages are supported so you can use it globally.10G Ethernet10G Ethernet allows high speed computers to be connected. It's fast, even when lots of users are connected all at the same time. It's perfect for connecting to the latest 10G Ethernet switches.Ethernet via USB-CCloud Dock models include an Ethernet via USB-C port. This gives you access to the independent disks for file management from a laptop, leaving the high speed Ethernet ports for networked users.HDMI Monitor OutputThe HDMI monitor output lets you see the status of your Cloud Dock in real time. Simply plug in a TV or monitor. You can see a storage map, speed graphs, sync, active users and power status!Get Blackmagic Cloud for Global Media Sync!Now creative teams can share a single local cache of media uploaded to the Blackmagic Cloud for a true global workflow! This makes working much faster because files are instantly available to everyone without needing to be downloaded from the internet. Blackmagic Cloud Dock will constantly work to stay in perfect sync. You save space on your individual computers because the Blackmagic Cloud Dock is a central store of all media that's accessible to everyone on your local network. You can even sync multiple Blackmagic Cloud Docks to different geographic locations so everyone can collaborate globally without latency because everyone is using a local copy of the media files. That makes it a perfect home or offsite solution.Distribute Files GloballyWith support the Blackmagic Cloud website, you can use multiple Blackmagic Cloud Dock units to share files globally. That's important when working with large datasets or massive digital film and video files. These files need to be constantly accessed dozens of times a second, so most internet connections are too slow to handle it. While the internet has too much latency to access large files remotely, you can use it to sync these files. Syncing the files to local storage totally eliminates delays in accessing them. That's because everyone has a local copy of the files on their network. Blackmagic Cloud Dock will constantly sync files, even if your computer is turned off!Mount and Share Media instantlyGet high end digital film and broadcast workflows by connecting SSDs recorded on camera to a Blackmagic Cloud Dock! This lets multiple DaVinci Resolve workstations access the recorded files instantly, without any file copying! DaVinci Resolve is a free download and allows you to edit and color the camera files. That's a fantastic workflow solution when using Blackmagic URSA Mini cameras, which can record to SSD disks using URSA Mini Recorder. Cloud Dock uses PCIe Gen 3 so it's insanely fast at copying files from disks and ideal for quickly off loading media from multi-camera shoots. So you get a perfect workflow solution for independent film production and it's perfect for multi-cam editing!Real Time MonitoringThe most exciting feature is the HDMI monitoring output! Simply connect a TV or computer monitor to get a live status of the Blackmagic Cloud Dock! The storage map shows a graphic representation of the total SSD capacity and real time read and write access happening for the connected users. It's quite mesmerizing to watch! There are also graphs that show you the data transfers on the Ethernet connection. The main space indicator shows you the capacity of the SSD disks and how much is currently being used. You can also add a custom name to the Cloud Dock! The status for each Blackmagic Cloud connection is also shown. It's even possible to see connected users and the power status.Usage IndicatorOn the top left you can see the storage capacity indicator. The number on the left is the space used and the number on the right is the total SSD disk capacity connected to the Blackmagic Cloud Dock.Customizable NameYou can give a custom name to the Blackmagic Cloud Dock so you can identify it on the monitor display and the utility software.

The memory is divided into segments with reads in cyan and writes in orange. The display will automatically adapt when disks are connected.Cloud Sync StatusThe cloud sync status shows each sync folder and its transfers to and from Blackmagic Cloud. When new files appear in any sync folder, you can see the transfer status as they sync!User ConnectionsYou can see each of the connected users and the data transfers for each.

This includes the cell size for the storage map plus internet connection status and each disk that is currently connected.Speed GraphsThe lower part of the display has the data transfer speed graph. It shows recent read and write speeds for the 10G Ethernet connections. It's great for diagnosing the Ethernet speed on each port!High Performance 10G EthernetThe Blackmagic Cloud Dock has up to 4 high speed 10G Ethernet ports, which is only found on expensive workstation computers.

The Ethernet also features very low latency for fast access times. That's similar performance to expensive business SANs but in a low cost design that you can install yourself!No Subscription CostsOne of the big advantages of the Blackmagic Cloud Dock is that it's private storage that you fully control. There are no subscriptions to sign up for. There are no monthly license fees. There is no tracking of your usage or data. You don't even need to log into a web page to maintain the storage settings, because Blackmagic Cloud Dock uses a free to download software utility that runs on Mac and Windows.

With Blackmagic Cloud Dock, you can customize your network storage solution with total freedom.Free Software for Mac and WindowsWhen you need to change settings, you can use the Blackmagic Cloud Dock utility that's available on Mac and Windows.
