Description

Full specifications Datasheet Compare alternatives

BrightSign states the XT5 elevates signage experiences and reliably replaces PCs with a blend of motion graphics power, cutting-edge video performance and connections that maximize efficiency.

It decodes a single 8K 60p 10-bit stream or dual 4K 60p 10-bit streams, and supports HDR10, HLG and Rec.2020/BT.2020, 4K video rotation and 4K full-resolution images and graphics.

The player is powered over Ethernet (PoE+ Gigabit) and has an integrated Neural Processing Unit (NPU) for AI workloads.

Housed in an ultra-thin anodized aluminium enclosure with built-in wall mounting, it measures 238.62 x 185.90 x 19.19 mm and weighs 0.68 kg (1.41 kg shipping).

XT245 is the Standard I/O package version of the XT5. BrightSign describes it as delivering 'robust 3D motion graphics in 4K and vibrant HDR video from Full HD to breathtaking 8K. Power the player and peripherals via PoE+.'

Its HTML5 performance level is rated by BrightSign as '3D WebGL & real time data visualization'.

The XT245 has a single HDMI 2.1a output and no HDMI input; USB-A, USB-C and RS-232 serial are fitted only on the XT1145 and XT2145.
