LundHalsey x-Type Broadcast Air Console, Medium - Height Adjustable

Product Overview

The LundHalsey x-Type Broadcast Air Console (Medium, Height Adjustable) is a sit-stand broadcast control room desk suited to single-operator on-air positions, production control rooms, and AV control rooms where studio footprint is constrained but full broadcast-grade equipment integration is required. The Medium configuration balances workspace area with space efficiency, making it a practical fit for mid-size broadcast studios, corporate broadcast facilities, and network operations centres. Built on the same steel-fabricated wedge platform as the full x-Type family, this height-adjustable broadcast console includes concealed 19-inch rack-mount bays, interchangeable modular equipment pods, and integrated cable management.

Product Description

The x-Type Air Console Medium provides the ergonomic sit-stand capability of the Air series in a footprint sized for single-operator broadcast positions and medium-scale production environments. This is the console of choice when a broadcast studio needs a professional-grade, height-adjustable on-air desk without the physical footprint of the large configuration. The sit-stand adjustment mechanism supports operator comfort across long production shifts, making it appropriate for live broadcast environments where operators cannot rotate positions frequently.

The steel wedge structure conceals 19-inch rack-mount fixings behind a clean front cover, keeping broadcast hardware — including signal routing equipment, KVM switches, audio monitoring units, and patch panels — integrated into the console body without visible rack hardware at the operator position. Interchangeable modular equipment pods allow AV system designers to configure and reconfigure the console surface as production workflows evolve. Work surface cable management access and rear cable management panels maintain signal integrity and physical organisation in high-density broadcast wiring environments. The Kontrol Touch interface provides height memory presets so individual operators can recall their preferred sitting and standing positions without manual adjustment. Laterally adjustable articulated monitor arms support multi-screen monitor configurations typical in broadcast production and on-air positions. The high-gloss end panels with integrated LED accent lighting deliver a finished, on-camera-appropriate aesthetic for studio environments. This console is available through Creation Networks for broadcast integrators and facilities managers across the United States and Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does the Medium size differ from the Large x-Type Air Console?

A: The Medium configuration provides a smaller overall footprint suited to single-operator positions and studios where floor space is limited. The Large is designed for multi-operator positions or installations requiring greater equipment integration capacity. Both share the same sit-stand mechanism, modular pod system, and cable management architecture.

Q: Does the console support multiple monitors?

A: Yes. The x-Type Air Console is designed to be used with LundHalsey's premium engineered monitor arms, which provide lateral adjustment and full articulation. Multiple monitors can be positioned across the console width using individual or grouped arm configurations. Contact Creation Networks to specify monitor arm configurations for your broadcast position.

Q: Is the height adjustment motorized or manual?

A: The x-Type Air series supports motorized height adjustment controlled via the Kontrol Touch interface, which includes programmable height memory presets. Contact Creation Networks or LundHalsey directly to confirm the specific mechanism included with this SKU.

Q: Can this console be integrated into an existing broadcast control room fit-out?

A: Yes. The x-Type console is designed as a modular system that can be integrated into new or existing broadcast control room layouts. LundHalsey provides design services including space optimisation, rendered drawings, and stakeholder workshops to support integration into existing facilities.

Q: What AV equipment can be rack-mounted inside the console?

A: The concealed 19-inch rack-mount bays can accommodate standard 1U to 4U broadcast AV hardware, including patch panels, KVM switches, audio monitoring units, signal processors, and intercom equipment. Exact rack unit capacity depends on the configuration — contact Creation Networks for specifications.
