Estimated to be located 77 million light-years from Earth,[1] the galaxy's luminosity class is IV and it has a HI line width region.

[clarification needed][2] It belongs to the equatorial region of Eridanus Void with an arcsec approximation of ≈ 250.

[clarification needed][3] UGC 711 is considered a low-surface brightness galaxy (LSB)[4] with a diffuse stellar disk.

[5][6] With a surface brightness measurement found ~1 magnitude less illuminated compared to μ B,0 = 21.65 mag arcsec−2 according to K.C.

Freeman,[7] UGC 711 is one of best studied superthin galaxies defined by its atypical classification when seen edge-on.
