"What the hell is that PCB attached?" It normally comes with a proprietary breakout cable.

Searching that company name found their website. According to their LinkedIn, "BCD designs and manufactures systems for computer controlled video."

Searching their website for Blackmagic confirms that the hardware in the photo was pulled from one of BCD's DVR models, the HDi-250.

We use a COTS Industrial 4-core computer to drive the system.
Even though most of the connections are not used on the HDi rear panel, we leave them exposed because some of them stick out beyond our rear panel.
The one connector worth mentioning is the RJ-45 LAN socket for networking and TCP/IP remote control.
For military versions the USB and LAN connectors of the HDi rear panel are permanently covered by an inside panel.

Note to Existing HDi-250 Customers (S/N 2000-2040)
1 March 2017
BCD policy is to make free software updates available for download from www.bcdusa.com and we try very hard to provide after-sale backwards compatibility support for the entire life of a product line. Unfortunately there is a network incompatibility between the most recent firmware released by Blackmagic Design for updating their Intensity Pro-4K video capture/playback hardware and the computer BIOS on the CPU motherboards used in earlier HDi units.
[...]
There is still an intermittant bug with ECS motherboards....a conflict between the ECS BIOS and the older BlackMagic drivers that sometimes causes “Mickey Mouse” sounding audio. Reboot fixes it

Another page includes the phrase "Featuring the latest cutting-edge technologies such as
DeckLink 6G-SDI" which is a reference to another Blackmagic card.
Dimensions of the HDi-250 are 17"x17"x1 7/8" without rack ears.
