Finished in polished aluminum, this single-monitor desk mount supports compatible displays weighing 7–20 lb (3.2–9.1 kg) and provides 13 inches of height adjustment.
Designed for office desks, professional workstations, and space-conscious environments, the MXV features Constant Force™ technology for smooth adjustments, integrated cable management, and a compact desk-clamp design.
Key Features
- Flexible monitor positioning: Adjust screen height, tilt, pan, and rotation to suit your workstation and viewing preferences.
- 13-inch height adjustment: Raise or lower a compatible monitor to help achieve a comfortable viewing position.
- Supports displays up to 34 inches: Designed for monitors weighing between 7 and 20 lb (3.2–9.1 kg).
- Compact polished aluminum design: The streamlined arm helps maintain a tidy desk setup and folds back toward its base when not in use.
- Integrated cable management: Helps organize monitor cables along the arm for a cleaner workstation.
Adjustable and Space-Saving Design
The MXV monitor arm provides up to 13 inches (33 cm) of height adjustment and extends the display up to 22.2 inches (56 cm) from the back of the base to the VESA mounting plate. Its articulated design makes it easier to reposition the screen for different tasks, while the base rotation stop can help prevent the arm from contacting nearby walls or desks.

The included two-piece desk clamp attaches to a desk surface measuring approximately 0.47–1.25 inches (12–32 mm) thick. The monitor attachment supports VESA MIS-D mounting patterns of 75 × 75 mm and 100 × 100 mm. Check your monitor's weight, dimensions, VESA pattern, and desk thickness before installation.
An optional grommet mount is available for compatible through-hole desk installations. The MXV can also be configured to support a laptop using the separately purchased Ergotron Notebook Tray 50-193-200.
