SH438N Overview

Shelf edges, counters and point-of-sale fixtures often leave a long, narrow space where a standard 16:9 screen would waste most of its area. The SH438N is a ViviSign stretched display built for that shape: a 43.8 inch bar-type LCD at 3840 x 1080, with 350 nits and a 1000:1 contrast ratio.

The panel is a native stretched LCD, made as an uncut bar-type panel rather than a standard screen cut down to size, and it is rated for 24/7 operation. It offers 178° viewing angles horizontally and vertically, so content stays legible to shoppers walking past at an angle. An anti-glare surface keeps content clear under shop lighting. A narrow bezel helps it fit a shelf or counter fixture. ViviSign names point of sale and shelf displays as the intended uses.

The SH438N comes in two builds. As a monitor it takes two HDMI inputs and shows content from an external player or PC. The alternative build adds an Android 9.0 player with a quad-core Cortex-A55 processor, 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB of storage, LAN, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, so content can run from the display itself. Within the same range, the SH431N offers 3840 x 720 at 43.1 inch and the SH439N offers 1920 x 540 at 43.9 inch.

Power comes from an internal 100 to 240 V AC supply, drawing 85 W. The SH438N operates from 0 °C to 40 °C at 10 to 80% humidity, measures 1098.16 x 328.12 x 52 mm and weighs 12 kg, and ships with a mounting bracket. Content is shown at the panel’s native 3840 x 1080, so artwork should be designed for that canvas rather than scaled from a 16:9 layout.
