LG 55UH5N-E – 55-inch 500-nit UHD Signage Display

Product Overview

The LG 55UH5N-E is a 55-inch UHD signage display engineered for 24/7 commercial deployment in demanding indoor environments. Its 500-nit IPS panel with 28% haze stays legible under bright ambient lighting, while webOS 6.0 runs content directly on the display without a separate media player. A conformal-coated power board and IP5X dust-proof rating give this commercial-grade digital signage display added resilience against dust and humidity. Crestron and Cisco certification let integrators fold it into managed AV control and conferencing systems.

Product Description

Built for retail, transportation, and corporate signage, this UHD digital signage display pairs a 3,840 x 2,160 IPS panel with 178-degree viewing angles and 10-bit color for vivid, distortion-free content. The webOS 6.0 System on Chip with 16 GB of internal memory supports gapless playback, local content scheduling, and SuperSign CMS for centralized content management across a display fleet. For integration projects, the display offers three HDMI inputs (HDCP 2.2), DisplayPort, an HDMI loop-out, and HDMI/DisplayPort daisy chaining for multi-screen layouts, plus a tile mode supporting arrays up to 15 x 15. Security-conscious deployments benefit from LG Enhanced Kernel Protection and ISO/IEC 15408 Common Criteria EAL2 certification. Portrait and landscape orientation with a -30-degree face-down tilt suits ceiling-hung and overhead installations. For comparable commercial signage and monitor options, see the 65-inch UM5N-E commercial monitor and the brighter 65-inch UH7N-E 700-nit display.
