How the 27HQ710S compares against a standard edge-LED surgical monitor:
The 27HQ710S addresses the most common operating room display upgrade scenario, a surgical suite with functional 3G-SDI camera infrastructure that needs a significant display quality improvement without a full SDI cabling overhaul. The 3G-SDI in and out, combined with HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI, means existing surgical cameras, endoscopes, and signal routing equipment connect without modification, and the Mini-LED backlight with optical bonding delivers the visual quality upgrade independent of the SDI generation.

Clinical Applications
Deployed across minimally invasive surgery, laparoscopic procedures, endoscopy suites, and hybrid operating room environments where Mini-LED contrast precision, 3G-SDI signal compatibility, and operating room durability are required in a compact 27 inch footprint.
Mini-LED local dimming with 1,500 zones provides 2,000 cd/m2 peak brightness and consistent screen brightness for precise tissue and instrument visualization during minimally invasive procedures in a compact 27 inch boom configuration.
For operating rooms with existing 3G-SDI surgical camera systems that want a 4K Mini-LED display upgrade, the 3G-SDI in and out integrates directly with current camera infrastructure without cabling replacement.
A DCI-P3 98 percent and sRGB 139 percent area color gamut accurately reproduces mucosal tissue color during GI endoscopy, bronchoscopy, and cystoscopy, where tissue color fidelity supports lesion detection.
4 picture by picture shows four independent video sources at once, such as an endoscope, fluoroscopy, navigation imaging, and patient monitoring, on one 27 inch 4K panel, which reduces the boom monitor count.
HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI, and 3G-SDI inputs connect endoscopes, C-arm fluoroscopy, navigation systems, and vital signs monitors at the same time, and automatic failover supports demanding hybrid operating room procedures.
The intended use of the 27HQ710S includes recording operative procedures, and the SDI loop-through outputs feed recording systems and secondary displays from the same source.
3G-SDI, 4PBP, and Automatic Failover
A 4K surgical AV integration platform designed to slot into existing operating room ecosystems built on 3G-SDI signal routing, including laparoscopic towers, endoscopy platforms, and hybrid operating room AV. The expanded detail on inputs, outputs, multi-view, failover, and mounting is in the expandable sections below.
Mini-LED Backlight: 1,500 local dimming zones deliver precise zone-by-zone brightness control, isolating a bright surgical field from darker instrument shadows in the same frame without the halo blooming typical of edge-LED surgical monitors.
Peak Brightness: 2,000 cd/m2 peak output for visibility under intense operating room lighting, and 800 cd/m2 typical for sustained surgical sessions.
DICOM Part 14: compliant for consistent grayscale when displaying radiographic reference images during hybrid operating room and interventional procedures.
DCI-P3 98 percent and sRGB 139 percent area: a wide color gamut that renders tissue color, vascular anatomy, and fluorescence imaging beyond standard sRGB surgical monitors.
HDR10 and HDR Effect: dynamic range processing that preserves highlight and shadow detail during high-contrast surgical imaging.
3G-SDI, in and out: SDI loop-through supports surgical cameras, endoscopes, and signal routing that use the 3G-SDI cabling standard already deployed across most hospital operating rooms, with no forced SDI infrastructure upgrade.
DVI, in and out: DVI with a loop-through output for legacy surgical cameras and anesthesia workstation connectivity.
HDMI 2.0: high-definition input for modern operating room source devices, navigation systems, and imaging workstations.
DisplayPort, in and out: DisplayPort with a loop-through output for high-resolution workstation connectivity and secondary display distribution.
USB 3.0: one upstream and one downstream port for peripheral connectivity.
4PBP, 4 picture by picture: display up to four independent video sources at the same time on a single 27 inch 4K panel, such as an endoscope, fluoroscopy, navigation imaging, and a vital signs monitor, which reduces the number of monitors on the surgical boom for minimally invasive and laparoscopic procedures.
PIP, picture in picture: overlay a secondary source within the primary endoscopic field, which suits fluorescence imaging or navigation overlays without interrupting the main video feed.
Mirror Mode: duplicate the primary signal output to a gallery monitor or secondary viewing position.
Rotation Mode: rotate the display output for vertical instrument or scope visualization.
Automatic Failover: the 27HQ710S monitors the active input signals and automatically switches to a pre-designated backup input on signal loss across SDI, HDMI, DVI, and DisplayPort, which maintains the surgical display without manual intervention during active procedures.
Failover Benefit: signal continuity is maintained during cable faults, connector issues, or source device failures, which reduces disruption to the surgical team and prevents a display blackout during critical procedure stages.
Two Hot Keys: dedicated hardware buttons for rapid recall of two saved display presets, useful for instant switching between standard surgical video and fluorescence or indocyanine green imaging profiles.
IP45 Front Panel: dust tight and protected against water jets from any direction, which withstands operating room fluid splash, antiseptic spray, and routine surface disinfection without damage to internal components.
IP32 Rear Panel: protected against dripping water, which protects cabling connections from condensation or overhead fluid.
IK06 Impact Resistance: protects the display against accidental contact with surgical instruments or equipment.
Optical Bonding: eliminates the air gap between the panel and the 1.3 millimeter protection glass, which reduces internal reflections and improves contrast under operating room lighting, with anti-reflection and anti-fingerprint coatings.
VESA Mount: 200 by 100 millimeters and 100 by 100 millimeters for surgical boom, pendant arm, wall, or ceiling mount. A stand is not included, and the monitor weighs 8.0 kilograms.
