Brand: Panasonic
SKU: panasonic-et-sbfmp10
Availability: InStock

Overview

The Panasonic ET-SBFMP10 is an Intel SDM function board media processor that fits the matching slot in compatible Panasonic projectors. It outputs one 4K signal at 3840 x 2160/60p, connects through a single LAN cable and handles NDI and Dante streams. It suits integrators building immersive or multi-projector displays in Qatar who want playback and scheduling on one board. Confirm projector compatibility before ordering. Request a quote.

What the ET-SBFMP10 does inside a projector setup

The Panasonic ET-SBFMP10 is a media processor built as an Intel SDM function board rather than a standalone box. It is designed to sit in the Intel SDM standard-compatible slot of supported Panasonic projectors, so the projector itself becomes the host for content playback. It belongs to Panasonic's FMP50 family, which targets multi-projection displays where setup time and operator workload add up quickly.

Specifications that matter for planning

Output: one 4K stream at 3840 x 2160/60p from each board.
Connection: a single LAN cable links the board to the rest of the system.
Input: signals up to 18 million pixels, with a maximum length of 7680 pixels, including 7680 x 1920/60p and 4096 x 4096/60p.
Streaming: NDI up to 3840 x 2160/60p and Dante with 2 channels.
Playback control: content interruption and PinP display during scheduled playback.

Software, calibration and monitoring

Content is set up in Visual Software Suite 2.0, a free Windows-based platform that is compatible with the FMP50 Series and arranges its screens in the order you work through them. It covers warping, colour adjustment, playlists with custom timelines, previews sent directly to the device and automated daily schedules. Playback loops are gapless, which helps prevent a blank screen between items. Pixel-based screen adjustment is designed to keep fine detail sharp in 4K content.

Camera-based calibration handles blending and black-level adjustment, but it needs compatible NIKON or IDS cameras, which are sold separately. Supported cameras are the NIKON D5200, D5300, D5500, D5600, D7500, Z50 and Z5, plus the IDS GV-5890CP-C-HQ. The free Multi Monitoring and Control Software currently supports on and off status monitoring only.

Where it fits in Qatar

A visitor attraction or heritage venue in Doha running an immersive multi-projector show can fit a board in each compatible projector and schedule the daily programme to start automatically before doors open. An events hall in Lusail or the Industrial Area can apply the same approach to a multi-screen display, using scheduled playlists instead of an operator at the desk. In an education campus or corporate control room, technical teams benefit from a fixed playlist and a clear recovery path when a fault occurs.

Summer temperatures in Doha regularly pass 45°C, and the manufacturer data supplied for this board does not state an operating temperature range. Confirm the installation environment with the SmartRooms Qatar team before fitting it in any space that is not air-conditioned.

What to plan before ordering

Confirm your projector model is on the compatible list. Panasonic cannot guarantee compatibility with non-Panasonic projectors.
Budget separately for compatible cameras if you need camera-based calibration.
Provide a LAN point at each projector location, since each board connects through one cable.
Review playlist and network needs with your IT team before installation.

Request a quote from SmartRooms Qatar to check compatibility with your projectors. Quotations are usually issued within one working day, and we deliver to all eight municipalities of Qatar with professional installation and free site surveys.

Questions about ET-SBFMP10

What is the Panasonic ET-SBFMP10 and which projectors does it fit?

The ET-SBFMP10 is a media processor on an Intel SDM function board, built to fit the Intel SDM standard-compatible slot in supported Panasonic projectors. Panasonic lists compatible models including the PT-RQ25K, PT-RZ14K, PT-REQ15 and PT-REZ15 series and the PT-RQ7 series, with more to be announced. Confirm your exact projector model with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering.

Will it work with projectors from other brands?

Panasonic states it cannot guarantee compatibility of the ET-SBFMP10 with non-Panasonic projectors. Because the board is designed around the Intel SDM slot of Panasonic models, a mixed-brand projector room should be planned around Panasonic units only. Send your current projector models to SmartRooms Qatar so the team can check which ones are on the list before you request a quote.

What output resolution does the board deliver?

The ET-SBFMP10 provides one output at up to 3840 x 2160/60p, which is 4K at 60 frames per second. Each device gives one output, so the number of boards should match the number of projectors being driven. Check the output requirement of every projector in your layout before confirming quantities.

How could a visitor attraction in Doha use it?

A visitor attraction or heritage venue in Doha running an immersive multi-projector show could fit ET-SBFMP10 boards in compatible projectors and schedule the daily programme to start automatically before doors open. Content interruption and PinP display are supported during scheduled playback, so staff can insert a short notice without stopping the show entirely.

Is a separate software licence required?

The FMP50 Series software is described as usable without a separate licence, and Visual Software Suite 2.0 is free and Windows-based. Playlists, scheduling, warping and blending can be set up without buying extra licences. Camera-based calibration also carries no additional licensing fee, although the compatible cameras themselves are sold separately.

Which cameras support automatic calibration?

Camera-based calibration works with compatible NIKON or IDS cameras, which are sold separately. Supported models are the NIKON D5200, D5300, D5500, D5600, D7500, Z50 and Z5, plus the IDS GV-5890CP-C-HQ. Camera integration automates blending, black-level and geometric correction, which reduces manual setup time for multi-projector displays. Confirm the camera model you need before ordering.

How is the board connected to the network?

On the ET-SBFMP10, device connection runs over a single LAN cable, which keeps cabling simple at each projector location. Plan a network point at every projector and check cable routes with your IT team, especially where projectors are mounted high or inside ceiling voids. The board also supports NDI and Dante, so confirm your AV network before ordering.

What input signals can it accept?

The source data states it accepts signal input of up to 18 million pixels, with a maximum length of 7680 pixels. Named resolutions include 7680 x 1920/60p and 4096 x 4096/60p. This headroom suits wide panoramic content and high-resolution media prepared for smoother playback. Confirm your source resolution with the content producer before finalising the order.

Does it support NDI and Dante audio-visual streaming?

Yes. NDI is supported at up to 3840 x 2160/60p, and Dante is supported with 2 channels. These protocols let an IP-based AV system feed content into the board. Confirm with your integrator which of these your existing AV network uses before ordering, so the board matches your signal chain.

Can it be installed in a hot or unshaded space in Qatar?

The manufacturer data supplied for this model does not state an operating temperature range or environmental rating. With summer temperatures above 45°C, do not assume the board suits an unshaded or non-air-conditioned space. Confirm the installation environment with the SmartRooms Qatar team before fitting it, and ask for a quotation that matches your site conditions.

What should be checked before installing it in a lecture hall or events space?

Start by confirming that each projector model is on the compatible list and has the Intel SDM slot. Then book a free site survey so the team can check projector positions, ceiling access and cable routes. Doing this planning before the order is placed reduces rework after the equipment arrives on site.

Can a government entity or school order several units through an LPO?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders, including LPOs, and government tenders, including Monaqasat. A school or ministry ordering several boards for matching projectors can list each projector model and room on one purchase order. Quotations are usually issued within one working day, and payment can be made by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order.
