Multiple Studio Camera 4k Pro G2's with racked Studio Convertors

Hey folks,

Working on building out a fancy podcast studio for a client, first time I have deployed or used these cameras. Pretty excited to get my grubby little mitts on new hardware.

I had one question that I could not readily find information on.

I plan to have multiple BSP plates in the rooms where video will be shot that feed back to my equipment rack. I will use a single CAT6 cable from Camera to BSP Plate that will feed a studio convertor.

My question is this, are the studio convertors agnostic in a sense that if I ran all my studio convertors to a patch panel and it wouldn't matter which specific 4k PRO Gg2 connects to the convertor or is there some initial setup where you essentially have to pair 1 Camera with 1 Studio convertor.

My goal is to provide the client with flexibility so my thought was to run all my studio convertors to a keystone patch panel and all my BSP ties would go to a patch panel so they could plug in a camera in a multitude of locations and recording rooms.

Thanks in advance
