SmartView 4K G3 15.6" DCI 4K Broadcast Monitor
The SmartView 4K G3 is a 15.6 inch broadcast monitor with a 3840 x 2160 TFT Active Matrix LCD. It supports DCI 4K formats up to 2160p60 and includes SMPTE 2110 IP video connectivity alongside dual 12G-SDI inputs. The unit fits a 6 RU rack mount form factor with a machined aluminium chassis.
For IP and SDI broadcast workflows
This monitor suits engineers integrating SMPTE 2110 IP infrastructure or 12G-SDI signals into a rack environment. It provides on-screen tools including focus peaking, framing guides and 3D LUT support for HDR and log conversion. Buyers needing purely HDMI or DisplayPort connectivity without SDI or IP interfaces should consider other display types.
SMPTE 2110 and 12G-SDI input compatibility
The decisive specification is the combined support for SMPTE 2110 over SFP optical fibre and two 12G-SDI inputs with a loop output. This allows direct connection to modern IP broadcast backbones and legacy SDI gear simultaneously. Verify that your pipeline uses these exact standards before purchase.

Questions about this item
Will the LCD panel need replacement after heavy daily use?
The 15.6" TFT Active Matrix LCD has a 25 ms response time and is built into a machined aluminium chassis designed for continuous broadcast operation.
What limit appears first during sustained 2160p60 monitoring?
Real-time monitoring relies on the 25 ms pixel response; extended full-brightness 3840 x 2160 output may push panel thermal limits before any interface bottleneck.
How much heat and fan noise does the monitor produce when running all day?
The lightweight aluminium chassis acts as a passive heatsink for the 12G-SDI and 2110 IP circuitry, keeping surface temperatures low without active cooling fans.
