Leader Instruments Corporation has announced the launch of the LPX500, a multi-channel 4K waveform monitor and the first in its new LeaderPhabrix product line. Designed for advanced video analysis and signal generation, the LPX500 supports up to 4 x 12G-SDI and 2 x 100GE-IP inputs, making it a versatile tool for broadcast and production professionals.

The LPX500 features four fully independent analyzers, allowing simultaneous monitoring of IP/SDI, HD/UHD, and SDR/HDR video sources. It supports a range of interfaces, including SD/HD/3G/6G/12G-SDI and 10G/25G/100G IP, with compliance for SMPTE 2022-6, SMPTE ST 2110-10/20/21/31/40, ST 2022-7 and AMWA NMOS standards.

The system includes a built-in 8-inch touchscreen monitor, and an optional second 8-inch display can be added via USB-C, providing expanded screen real estate with independent control. Its interface is designed to simplify complex SDI/IP workflows, offering multiple layouts and swipe-enabled navigation for critical monitoring tools.

Key features include:

  • Advanced SDI Physical Layer Analysis with eye and jitter measurement options
  • Enhanced RGB vector display for monitoring gamut violations in live production
  • Optional software licenses for UHD/4K, HDR, 25G/100G IP and SDI/IP AV test signal generation

The LPX500 is housed in a short-depth, rack-mountable form factor, making it ideal for space-constrained environments. It integrates noVNC technology for fast remote access and includes optimized cooling pathways with fan-speed control to minimize noise.
