SWIT BM-H245 23.8-Inch 4K-Ready QLED Production Monitor

SWIT BM-H245 23.8-Inch 4K-Ready QLED Production Monitor

The SWIT BM-H245 23.8-inch 4K-ready QLED production monitor combines a 1920 x 1080 display with 12G-SDI, quad-link 3G-SDI, HDMI 2.0, HDR/SDR monitoring, and professional scopes. It accepts signals up to 4K60 while providing a full-size monitoring platform for broadcast, film production, control rooms, and post-production.

The 23.8-inch QLED panel delivers 400-nit brightness, a 1000:1 contrast ratio, 10-bit color, and 100% DCI-P3 coverage. Production teams can monitor a single 12G-SDI source, quad-link 4K, or mixed SDI and HDMI feeds in multiview. Two-source picture-by-picture and picture-in-picture modes further support multi-camera production monitoring and studio signal evaluation.

Built-in waveform, vectorscope, histogram, eye pattern, focus assist, false color, zebra, and audio metering help operators evaluate images without additional test hardware. The BM-H245 also supports HLG, PQ, S-Log3, user 3D LUTs, automatic calibration with compatible probes, Payload ID configuration, and Ethernet browser control. AC, 4-pin XLR DC, and V-mount power options support fixed studios and mobile production environments.
