The latest standards in video input signals

Four 12G-SDI interfaces accept single, dual, or quad-link signals, so one monitor can track everything from a single UHD feed through to an 8K quad bundle from your router in a live portable production unit (PPU) or fixed install. HDMI 2.1 offers direct connection to cameras and switchers. An optional 12G SFP+ slot stays available when you need to connect to a video source a long distance away. Loop outputs mirror the video inputs that you pass in, which keeps downstream devices and record paths simple to patch without extra distribution amplifiers in the monitor chain.

Scopes, HDR, and LUT loading

The on-screen video analytics toolset includes waveform, vector scope, histogram, false colour, exposure assist, check field, colour bar, and pixel zoom. For sound, there is an audio vector display and level metering. HDR monitoring covers HLG and ST 2084 at 300, 1000, and 10000 cd/m² reference points. 3D LUTs in .cube format load over USB (17³ or 33³, BGR order per the manual). Quad-View splits the panel into four tiles so you can assign SDI, SFP, or HDMI sources per quadrant. Peaking uses red, green, blue, white, or black outlines. A split-screen comparison mode shows colour space, HDR, gamma, or camera log against the unprocessed image.

Power and control that fit field and fixed installs

Wide-range DC input, bundled 15V 4.8A adapter, and V-mount or Anton Bauer plate options cover mains in a rack, battery on a cart, or a block battery through the included D-Tap to XLR lead. Featuring a comprehensive set of remote control interfaces (GPI, LAN, and RS422), the UQ19 can be rapidly deployed into different sets and venues and controlled over existing infrastructure.

Mounting for OB and rack

Base brackets and a VESA plate are included as standard for desktop and arm mounting. For fleet operators, an optional hard-shell carry case with sunshade protects the panel between venues (see below). For fixed installations, the chassis also supports optional 19 inch rack mount brackets so the same SKU can migrate from a carry case to a standard broadcast rack without a different product line.

The latest size in the UQ high-brightness line

The UQ19 sits alongside the established UQ23 and UQ31 models, giving crews an 18.4 inch option when every millimetre of truck bench or director's desk counts, but you still want the same philosophy: daylight-useful luminance, 12-bit processing pipeline, and interfaces aligned with 8K-capable production. Full specifications, downloads, and reseller information are on the product page.

Optional carry case for road work

The carry case (optional) adds durability and portability to the UQ19. It includes storage pockets for paperwork and small items such as screws, and a removable rear door so you retain full access to the VESA mount plate and battery plate while the monitor is in the case. A sunshade is included with this option. The configuration is aimed at mobile, rental, and on-location customers. For fixed installations, the chassis also supports optional 19 inch rack mount brackets, so the UQ19 can move between road use in the carry case and installation in a standard 19 inch broadcast rack without changing to another monitor line.
