NEC Display Solutions Adds Powerful 46-Inch and 52-Inch LED-Backlit Displays to Award-Winning Super-Slim Portfolio

Professional-Grade Components, LED Backlighting and OPS Option Slots Form Backbone of New X462S and X552S Displays

CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading provider of commercial LCD display and projector solutions, announced today the addition of two super-slim displays to its specialty X Series portfolio. The 46-inch X462S and 55-inch X552S large-screen displays are the latest additions to NEC’s award-winning family of digital signage.

“These new super-slim displays underscore NEC’s commitment to innovation and give more options to organizations looking to fulfill their digital signage and communications strategies”

These industrial-strength, full HD LCD displays leverage LED backlighting technology, which delivers improved power consumption and provides flexibility for a variety of installations, including those requiring Americans with Disability Act (ADA) compliance (when used with select display mounts). Measuring a mere 1.8 inches deep, the X462S and X552S are not only super-slim and ultra light, these displays also deliver a maximum brightness of 700 cd/m². As a result, the most challenging applications in retail, hospitality and government can be addressed and met.

In addition, these super-slim displays include the Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) slot, an industry-wide standardization designed to simplify installations, use and maintenance of digital signage. Users receive full connectivity, including DisplayPort, HDMI and DVI-D, as well as remote management through the Network Control and Communication tools.

“These new super-slim displays underscore NEC’s commitment to innovation and give more options to organizations looking to fulfill their digital signage and communications strategies,” said Rachel Karnani, Product Manager of Large-Screen Displays at NEC Display Solutions. “As part of our comprehensive solutions approach, we also are offering these models bundled with high-performance single board computers to help customers quickly implement digital signage and enhance their brand images.”

The X462S and X552S displays include the following features:

• LED backlighting technology, which reduces power consumption and contributes to a lightweight design with minimal 1.8-inch depth
• Commercial-grade LCD panel and components, which enable extended run times
• 1920 x 1080 full HD native resolution, which provides stunning image clarity

• RS-232C, LAN and DDC/CI for external control
• TileMatrix™, which facilitates video walls up to 100 displays in 10 x 10 configurations
• Optional color-calibration solution, which enables color uniformity and fidelity across individual and multiple screens
• Real-time clock, which has the ability to set schedules for on/off times 24/7 and can be set to warm up 30 minutes before use for optimum color representation
• Built-in ATSC digital tuner (SB-03TM), which allows for high-definition broadcast capabilities (X462S-AVT and X552S-AVT models only)
• Bundled solutions, which include an X Series display and a single board computer (OPS-PCAF-WS) for simple digital signage (X462S-PC and X552S-PC models only)
