Ergotron 98-009-026 – HX Triple Monitor Bow Kit, Polished Aluminum
Overview
The Ergotron 98-009-026 HX Triple Monitor Bow Kit upgrades a compatible HX single- or dual-monitor arm to support three displays. The polished aluminum kit includes three monitor pivots, a triple hinged bow and a positioning handle. It is an accessory only and requires a compatible HX monitor arm, which is ordered separately.
Technical Information
The hinged bow allows the three monitors to be positioned across a wider viewing area, with the outer displays able to pivot inward or outward. The monitor pivots provide quick installation and release, portrait-to-landscape rotation, pan and tilt adjustment. Integrated cable-management guides route cables beneath the arm, through the extension and across the bow.
