Product Description
If you spend serious time at a desk — editing video, working across multiple windows, shooting and retouching — your monitor position matters more than most people realise. The Ergotron MXV Desk Monitor Arm lets you place your screen exactly where it needs to be, hold it there, and adjust it instantly as your work changes. No more propping your monitor on books or craning your neck at the wrong angle.
The MXV is built around a distinctive "V" shape design that manages internal cables cleanly and keeps the arm looking sharp on any desk. The gas-assisted lift handles screens up to 34 inches and 9.1 kg, giving you 33 cm of smooth height adjustment. Tilt 90° forward or backward, pan 180° at the base, and rotate the display 360° between landscape and portrait — all with one hand. A rotation-stop on the base prevents the arm from swinging into walls or neighbouring screens, which is a genuinely useful detail in tight workspaces.
Installation is straightforward — the arm ships fully assembled, attaches via a 2-piece desk clamp (fits desk edges 12–32 mm thick), and uses standard VESA 100x100 mm or 75x75 mm mounting. Ergotron backs this with a 10-year warranty and a 10,000-cycle motion test, so it is built to last. Compatible with Mac, PC and any VESA-standard monitor.

Product Q&A
Q: What size and weight of monitor does the MXV support?
A: The MXV supports monitors up to 34 inches with a weight between 3.2 kg and 9.1 kg (7–20 lbs). If your monitor is lighter than 3.2 kg, the arm may not hold position correctly. Monitors with a depth greater than 8.9 cm may reduce the maximum supported weight.
Q: What desk thickness does the clamp fit?
A: The 2-piece desk clamp fits desk surfaces from 12 mm to 32 mm thick (approximately 0.47 to 1.25 inches). If your desk has a through-hole, you can use the optional Ergotron Grommet Mount (98-110, sold separately) instead of the clamp.
Q: Is the MXV compatible with my monitor?
A: The MXV uses VESA FDMI MIS-D mounting, which is compatible with monitors that have a 100x100 mm or 75x75 mm VESA hole pattern on the back. Most monitors from Apple, Dell, LG, Samsung, BenQ, and other major brands support this standard. Check your monitor's manual or specs page to confirm.
Q: Can I use this arm with a MacBook or laptop instead of a monitor?
A: Yes, with the optional Ergotron Notebook Tray (50-193-200, sold separately) the MXV arm can hold a laptop instead of a monitor. The arm itself does not include the notebook tray.
Q: Is there a grommet mount option if I don't want to use the desk clamp?
A: Yes. The optional Ergotron Grommet Mount (part number 98-110, sold separately) lets you install the arm through a hole in your desk surface instead of clamping to the edge.
