SEETEC monitor 4K156-9HSD 15.6 inch

SEETEC 4K156-9HSD – 15.6" 4K Broadcast Monitor with 4x HDMI Inputs for Multi-Camera Production

The SEETEC 4K156-9HSD is a 15.6" Ultra HD broadcast monitor designed for multi-camera studio and live production workflows. It accepts four 4K HDMI inputs plus a 3G-SDI input with loop out, and it natively displays up to 3840 x 2160 at 60p. This makes it suitable for monitoring SD, HD and Ultra HD sources on location or in the studio.

Ultra HD image clarity and motion support

The monitor features a 3840 x 2160 Ultra HD panel so you can see every pixel in a 4K image. Furthermore, it supports native display up to 2160p60, which helps when you monitor fast motion such as sports or other quick-moving content. In short, the 4K resolution and frame-rate support deliver clear, detailed images for both focus checking and motion-critical shoots.

Wide viewing angle and accurate color

SEETEC uses an IPS panel with a 170° viewing angle. As a result, several crew members can view the screen at once without significant color or contrast shift. The display also focuses on precise color restoration to provide richer color levels and more accurate pictures for camera matching and grading checks.

Easy front-panel control

The monitor includes a machined metal control panel with durable buttons for fast access to key functions. On set you can quickly select inputs and auxiliary features such as quad view, peaking, check field, freeze, zoom, image flip, center markers, and color temperature adjustment. This front-panel approach gives you immediate technical control during production.

Professional connectivity for up to five sources

4K156-9HSD offers multiple professional connections so you can mix camera types. It includes four HDMI inputs and one 3G-SDI input with loop out, plus reference input and analog audio. Therefore you can connect up to five cameras, computers, or other video sources and monitor SD, HD and 4K signals in one place.

Built-in multi-view and picture-in-picture

The monitor supports built-in quad view and dual view modes so you can see multiple sources on a single screen. It supports quad split (4P), dual splits (2P LR, 2P TB, 2P PIP), single view and other multi-camera layouts. Meanwhile, the PIP function lets you create picture-in-picture compositions and adjust brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, sharpness and backlight in real time for live presentations, commentary, interviews or training videos.

3-color tally and broadcast compatibility

The unit includes built-in LED tally indicators in red, green and yellow. Tally connects via an industry-standard parallel pin connector on the rear panel, which provides compatibility with switchers and automation systems. The tally lights clearly indicate recording/on-air status or preview cues in multi-camera setups.

Flexible power options and rugged design

4K156-9HSD supports both XLR power and external batteries, and the package includes a V-Mount battery plate. Thus you can use it plugged into mains power in studios, vans or post facilities, or run it on battery power when shooting on location. The machined metal design is durable and robust enough for road use, fly-away kits and live events while still looking professional in a studio environment.

Live production use cases

This monitor targets live production scenarios such as broadcast, sports, concerts, seminars and other events where multi-camera monitoring is essential. It combines multi-input connectivity, quad/dual view, tally support and portable power options to turn live events into polished HD or Ultra HD programs quickly.
