Fort Lee, NJ – 25 March 2026: Test & measurement innovator Leader Electronics will present the full range of Leader, PHABRIX and LeaderPhabrix T&M solutions at the NAB Show, taking place at the Las Vegas Convention Center from April 18–22, 2026 (Booth #C5516). A comprehensive showcase of Leader’s acclaimed T&M products will underline its ability to ensure users can test with clarity, measure with accuracy, and monitor with confidence.
Taking a prominent place on the Leader booth will be one of the company’s most significant launches of recent years, and the first in a new family of video analysis and generation instruments under the ‘LeaderPhabrix’ brand: the LPX500 four simultaneous input waveform monitor with 100G-IP and 12G-SDI toolsets.
Its feature set is aligned with today’s varied workflows and includes:
- Simultaneous display of four 4K inputs
- 4K and 2K inputs
- HDR and SDR inputs
- SDI and IP inputs
- Optional extended 8-inch touchscreen
- Multiple screen layouts
- Advanced SDI Physical Layer Analysis (Eye and Jitter) option with support for SD/HD/3G/6G/12G-SDI
The LPX500’s new v1.1 software release will be demonstrated on the booth, adding 10G/25G/100G IP interfaces with SMPTE 2022-6, SMPTE ST 2110-10/20/30/31/40 with ST 2022-7, and AMWA NMOS.
A host of optional software licenses are available, including UHD/4K support, HDR, 25G IP, 100G IP, EUHD (47.95–60p RGB YCbCr 4:4:4 formats), and SDI/IP AV test signal generation.
Vital tools for everyday broadcast applications are a core segment of the Leader Electronics range, and at NAB they will be represented by products including the Leader LT4760 sync pulse generator. A 1U full rack synchronous signal generator, the LT4760 is compatible with Black Burst, tri-level sync and PTP signals for both SDI and IP systems.
Specifically, it outputs:
- PTP
- GNSS
- 4K/HD IP
- 4K 12G
- 3G/HD/SD SDI
- Analog synchronous signals
- AES/EBU
- Audio word clock
- LTC synchronized to analog video sync signals
Significantly, the LT4670 can also benefit from its new SyncAlign function when used alongside the LT4448 changeover unit, with the two products connected by the newly released LC2187 cable. By tightly coupling the behavior of the PTP reference with BB, TLS and digital audio references, SyncAlign ensures all timing references switch together, maintaining complete system alignment during failover events.
Leader will also highlight the capabilities of its ZEN-W Series of advanced analyzers, designed to meet the demands of modern broadcast media T&M environments where IP-based and remote production control and monitoring are increasingly common.
JPEG XS technology has been integrated into the ZEN-W Series, delivering advanced monitoring capabilities for SMPTE ST 2110-22 compressed IP streams. The incorporation of a Real-Time Communication (WebRTC) interface enables secure remote control and monitoring from a web-connected desktop or laptop.
The ZEN-W Series comprises two products:
- LV5600W waveform monitor – a 3U high, half-rack-width unit with an integral 7-inch touchscreen
- LV7600W rasterizer – a compact 1U unit providing SDI plus TMDS monitor outputs
Reflecting the growing popularity of NDI® (Network Device Interface) video connectivity technology, Leader’s NDI Checker software—designed for live analysis and monitoring of NDI signals and performance in broadcast and pro AV workflows—is also in high demand.
With the latest v1.2 version, features include:
- Support for both unicast and multicast configurations
- Expanded NDI configuration controls (NDI Group receiving, external source management, multicast IP address range definition)
- Compatibility with NDI Advanced SDK v6.2, ensuring proper receiver visibility in Discovery Server environments
Completing the showcase of Leader Electronics products will be the full suite of PHABRIX handhelds, including the acclaimed Sx TAG with portable IP/SDI toolset, and the established PHABRIX Qx Series of rasterizers and waveform monitors.
