About the Furrion Aurora® FDUP50CSA

Watch 4K outside

The Furrion Aurora's rugged design and built-in Wi-Fi make it easy to enjoy 4K content outdoors.
Watch 4K outside
The Furrion Aurora FDUP50CSA is a partial-sun outdoor TV designed to deliver a crisp 4K picture in areas that get some sun like a patio or deck. This 50" TV gives you the perfect excuse to get friends and family together for a little barbecue on game night.
Stress-free streaming
The TV's built-in Wi-Fi lets you stream your latest binge-worthy obsession on services like Netflix or Amazon Prime Video — all while a cool breeze rustles your hair. And it supports HDR10 content so you can enjoy a rich, detailed viewing experience even when you're outside.
Built to withstand the elements
The FDUP50CSA is rugged and engineered to resist humidity, dirt, rain, and harsh UV rays. Its dust-tight housing keeps particles out and also prevents the local critter population from taking up residence. A sealable compartment encloses the rear-panel connections to protect them from the elements.
Built-in fans help the TV play without a hitch even when the thermometer spikes to 122°F. And it can handle the cold all the way down to -4°F. The tempered glass screen is also IK08-rated to protect against impact and scratches, so you don't need to worry as much about a stray volleyball bouncing off your TV.

Outdoor & Mounting Options
Waterproof (IP54) & Impact Resistant: The Furrion Aurora Partial-Sun Smart TV is outdoor safe and can withstand harsh conditions when exposed to the elements. With a weatherproof housing and IP54 rating, the Furrion Aurora Partial-Sun Smart TV is engineered to withstand the harsh effects of UV rays, dirt, insects, and humidity (the TV is not waterproof). In addition, the Furrion outdoor television's XtremeShield IK08-rated tempered glass screen protects against impact and scratches.
- The IP54 rating means the TV is protected against dust ingress and splashing of water sufficient to prevent the television from operating normally, but it's not dust tight or waterproof.
- Four built-in fans provide internal cooling. Do not use the TV if the ambient air temperature exceeds the operating temperature limits. -4º F to 122º F (Operating Temperature) / -27.4º F to 140º F (Storage Temperature).
- A weather proof dust cover (sold separately) is available for when the Furrion Aurora Partial-Sun Smart TV is not in use.
Partial Sun: The Furrion outdoor television gives you a perfect and optimized picture in partially sunny outdoor environments thanks to a high brightness, anti-glare screen with auto-brightness control that adjusts the light levels for optimum viewing.
- Anti-Glare Screen: The TV utilizes an anti-glare screen for better visibility outdoors in partial sun with a wide 178º viewing angle.
- High Brightness: The TV's ultra-bright, 750-nit screen delivers the perfect amount of brightness for partially sunny outdoor environments with a contrast ratio of 4000:1.
- Ambient Light Sensor: The TV's integrated ambient light sensor with auto-brightness control automatically changes the screen's lighting levels adjusting to bright and dark conditions for optimal viewing at all times.
Optional Wall-Mount Bracket: The Furrion Aurora Partial-Sun Smart TV can be wall-mounted using a Furrion outdoor bracket or other brand of outdoor bracket (sold separately - see Accessories Tab). The TV features a VESA 200x400 mounting pattern with M6 threaded inserts. Wall-mount adapters are also included.
- The TV is weather resistant, but not waterproof. It must be installed away from any water source at a safe distance.
- For best viewing, install the TV in a shaded environment. Avoid installing the TV where the screen is facing direct sunlight. The ideal location is in one place where the TV is shaded by structures, or under a patio cover or gazebo.
- If the sun shines directly on the screen for long periods of time, dark areas may appear on the screen. This is a normal reaction for the LCD panel, and will not cause damage to the screen. Either turn the screen away from the sun, or shade the TV, and the dark areas will soon disappear.
Note: The Furrion outdoor TV does not come with a pedestal stand and does not offer an option for a pedestal stand.
Cable Management: All of the TV's inputs and output connectors are protected and hidden behind a rear-panel door. Your AV and power cables will feed through the bottom opening integrated into the door assembly. Thumbscrews secure the door in place.
Attached AC Power Cord: Connect the TV's attached 7' AC power cord to a GFCI protected AC outlet with an "in-use" waterproof cover.
- The TV and GFCI receptacle must be installed away from any water source at a safe distance. Be sure to check local electrical codes and comply with their local standards.
- Do not connect power cord during cable connecting and TV installation. Make sure the power cord is the last thing connected.
