RGBlink aura UHD studio 27 (Gen 2)

The RGBlink Aura UHD Studio 27 (Gen 2) is a broadcast-grade 27” 4K HDR monitor designed for professional video production, post-production, and studio workflows. Featuring quad 12G-SDI monitoring, Thunderbolt™ connectivity for direct video app previews, 98% DCI-P3 wide color gamut, and high-precision 3D LUT support, it provides advanced tools for accurate HDR monitoring and color grading.

The aura UHD studio 27 is a 27-inch 4K HDR monitor for broadcast, film and post-production. Its 3840 × 2160 LCD panel with 800 cd/m² shows four 12G-SDI signals at once, Thunderbolt 3 brings in the DaVinci Resolve output and the 12G-SFP fiber port carries the picture over long distances.

A monitor for film and television production

Four 12G-SDI inputs accept up to 8K (quad link) and are backward compatible down to 4K60, joined by two HDMI inputs and USB-C with Thunderbolt 3. The monitor works with 3D LUTs using tetrahedral interpolation, SMPTE ST 2084 (PQ) and HLG HDR curves as well as camera Log curves, and it recognises the HDR transfer type on SDI and HDMI by itself.

Accurate colour with 3D LUTs

A high-precision 3D LUT with tetrahedral interpolation and the built-in Rainbow colour management engine keep colours accurate. Your own LUTs and gamma curves can be uploaded to the monitor, so the intended film look can be shown on set.

Wide colour gamut

The monitor covers 100 % of Rec.709 and 98 % of DCI-P3 and switches between ITU-R BT.2020, ITU-R BT.709, EBU, SMPTE-C and the native panel gamut – for broadcast and film alike.

Four cameras on one monitor

Quad view, quad view with three windows, PBP and PAP modes. Unlike the first generation, four 12G-SDI signals can be watched in four windows at the same time, each window has its own colour mode and audio bars, and SDR and HDR pictures can be compared side by side (HLG 1.0–1.5, ST 2084 PQ, S-Log3).

Inputs, outputs and fiber

Four 12G-SDI inputs with four loop-through outputs, two HDMI inputs, USB-C and a 12G-SFP port for single-mode fiber. The input signal can be up to 8K, and a single fiber cable carries 4K video together with audio.

Edit preview over Thunderbolt 3

The Thunderbolt 3 compatible USB-C port is used to preview the output of DaVinci Resolve or Adobe Premiere Pro – it does not mirror or extend the computer desktop. The monitor reads the Payload ID from the 12G-SDI signal automatically.

Tally, UMD and film looks

Three-colour tally, a dynamic UMD label over TSL 3.1/4.0/5.0 via RS-422, and 3D LUTs that show the film look on the monitor while you shoot.

Audio, mounting and scopes

The monitor de-embeds 16 audio channels from SDI and shows up to 8 of them on meters, and it has a built-in speaker and a 3.5 mm headphone jack. VESA mounting points are on the back. Tools include waveform with HDR, vectorscope, histogram, false colour with ARRI and RED profiles, peaking, zebra, time code, image flip, freeze and zoom.

More information

The RGBlink Aura UHD Studio 27 (Gen 2) represents the next generation of professional UHD monitors, engineered for film, television, and advertising production environments. Equipped with a 27” 3840×2160 UHD display, it supports quad 12G-SDI inputs with full 4K@60Hz compatibility and backward support for 8K input. This monitor allows simultaneous quad-view of all four SDI signals, with each window able to use independent color modes and corresponding audio pillars. Compared with the first-generation model, Window C is no longer limited to HDMI In 2 or USB-C, increasing workflow flexibility.

The Studio 27 Gen 2 features a high-precision 3D LUT with tetrahedral interpolation, support for HDR formats including SMPTE ST2084 (PQ) and hybrid log-gamma (HLG), as well as multiple professional Gamma curves and camera Log profiles. False color now includes ARRI and Red camera profiles, and the unit also supports HDR waveform analysis. For post-production efficiency, the monitor connects directly to applications such as Adobe Premiere Pro™ and DaVinci Resolve™ via Thunderbolt™ port for real-time preview. Additional enhancements include V-mount battery plate support, DC 24V XLR power, optimized energy-saving circuits, and ESD/EMI protection, making it a versatile and reliable solution for broadcast and studio workflows.
