user5883: The Blackmagic UltraStudio 4k Extreme has some SFP ports.
Is it possible for that device to record to a network location like a NAS or SAN directly using a fibre connection?
Or is the fibre connection just used as another way to connect to a Mac or PC which would then do the recording?

user14523: According to the B&H details, the SFP cages are for 12G-SDI over fiber. They can only be used for baseband video I/O, not for an interface to a computer or network.
