NEC's
Ultra-Narrow Bezel in 46-Inch Display Creates Large, Near
Seamless Video Walls
NEC Display Solutions
of America, a provider of
commercial LCD displays and projectors, has introduced
the 46-inch MultiSync X461UN, an innovative, ultra-narrow
professional display.
The 46-inch large-format display is intended for video
wall solutions, where its ultra-narrow bezel allows for a
screen-to-screen distance between two neighboring
MultiSync X461UN displays of only 7.3 millimeters, a near
500-percent improvement from NEC&rsquos previously
revolutionary 34-millimeter MultiSync 20 Series displays.
According to the company, the MultiSync X461UN can be
deployed in video wall matrices of up to 10x10, creating
a total surface area of approximately 645 square feet.
The barely discernable transition gap between displays
ensures a homogenous picture across the matrix, the
company said.
The ultra-narrow MultiSync X461UN continues
NEC&rsquos tradition of ground-breaking bezel design
by providing the near seamless experience that is
required for optimal, eye-catching performance in video
wall matrices, said Jean McLaughlin, senior product line
manager for NEC Display Solutions, Itasca, Ill.
&ldquoWhen used in an impressive tile matrix, the
MultiSync X461UN makes for an attention-grabbing display
solution. The 46-inch display has been specifically
created for rigorous 24/7 use where high reliability is
key, and it incorporates a professional-grade panel with
a built-in expansion slot, allowing customers flexibility
and ease of use.
The NEC
46-inch MultiSync X461UN display is intended for
expansive video wall solutions, where its ultra-narrow
bezel allows for a barely discernable screen-to-screen
distance between neighboring displays.
The MultiSync X461UN
can be combined with many of NEC&rsquos large-format
accessories, such as the MPD-SBC-8/16-2 single-board
computer, SB-I008WU DVI daisy-chain module or SB-L007KK
HD-SDI card. These add-ons provide a cost-effective way
to source and manage display content, the company said.
The NEC accessories&rsquo ability to be fully
integrated into the X461UN expansion slot eliminates the
need for external distribution equipment and power
supply, thus providing for a clean look that simplifies
installation and reduces maintenance without compromising
quality.
The 46-inch ultra-narrow display is ideal for digital
signage in lobbies, broadcasting, public venues,
retail areas, transportation applications, and financial
environments. Through the optional SpectraViewII color
calibration kit (NEC SVII-PRO-KIT), tiled X461UN displays
will have identical color settings, ensuring color
uniformity and fidelity across multiple screens and
creating a perfectly matched image in tiled environments.
Additionally, NEC&rsquos new Network Control and
Communication feature enables the highest level of remote
display management, including such features as automatic
email notification in which users are alerted to
instances like overheating and lamp failure.
The MultiSync X461UN is backed by a 3-year parts and
labor warranty and will be available for shipment in
April 2009.
