ViviSign SH42N 42″ Stretched Display with 1920 x 480 Bar-Type LCD and 700 Nit Brightness

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 SH42N is a ViviSign stretched display built for that shape: a 42 inch bar-type LCD at 1920 x 480, with 700 nits and a 4000:1 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. At 700 nits it suits well-lit shop floors. 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 SH42N 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 8.1 player with a quad-core Cortex-A35 processor, LAN, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, so content can run from the display itself. Within the same range, the SH37W offers 1920 x 540 at 37 inch and the SH43N offers 1920 x 360 at 43 inch.

Power comes from an internal 100 to 240 V AC supply, drawing 85 W. The SH42N operates from 0 °C to 40 °C at 10 to 80% humidity, measures 1067.28 x 287.25 x 52.2 mm and weighs 12 kg, and ships with a mounting bracket. Content is shown at the panel’s native 1920 x 480, so artwork should be designed for that canvas rather than scaled from a 16:9 layout.
