Professional 4K HDMI 2.0 playback, remote publishing and versatile connectivity for LCD and LED displays.
Product Description
Professional 4K signage playback
The NovaStar LCB4K is a high-performance multimedia player for commercial LCD and LED displays. Its quad-core ARM A55 processor supports H.264 and H.265 video decoding at up to 4K60, while HDMI 2.0 delivers 3840 × 2160 output at up to 60 Hz.
Flexible output for landscape and portrait displays
Adaptive mode automatically reads the connected display's EDID and selects a compatible playback resolution. Custom mode gives integrators greater control over non-standard signage layouts, including portrait-oriented output within the supported resolution ranges.
Centralized content publishing and screen control
Use a compatible computer, smartphone or tablet to publish content and control displays. Gigabit Ethernet supports fast wired networking, while 2.4 GHz Wi-Fi operates in either AP or STA mode. Remote publishing and monitoring make the LCB4K a practical choice for retail networks, corporate communications, hospitality, transportation and public-information displays.
Designed for synchronized display networks
The player supports synchronized playback across multiple screens using NTP. GPS and RF synchronization are available with specified optional hardware, and compatible NovaStar 4G/5G modules can be added for selected deployments.
