NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS INTRODUCES NEW 23-INCH LED-BACKLIT LCD 
MONITOR TO ITS MULTISYNC
E231W Brings 1080P Resolution, DisplayPort Connectivity and 
Ambient Light Sensor to Business Applications 
CHICAGO – August 2, 2010 – NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading provider of 
commercial LCD display and projector solutions, announced today the introduction of the 
LED-backlit MultiSync E231W, an addition to the popular 23-inch desktop category. This 
desktop display is designed to benefit a variety of business customers with financial 
®
 E SERIES 
savings and power efficiency. 
The EPEAT Gold rated MultiSync E231W provides users with advanced features that 
were created to enhance the desktop computing experience and increase productivity. 
Its widescreen display allows users to have several applications open simultaneously, 
while its fully-ergonomic design includes 110mm height adjustment, tilt, swivel and pivot 
for improved comfort during use. 
This E Series model follows in the green footsteps of its sibling, the 22” MultiSync 
E222W, with ECO Mode™ to reduce power consumption and heat generation, and an 
ambient light sensor to detect external light sources and adjust the display’s brightness 
accordingly. Users also have the ability to track their carbon footprint savings with the 
MultiSync E231W’s carbon footprint meter, a unique tool that calculates the reduction of 
green gas emissions. Additionally, the Intelligent Power Manager (IPM) helps conserve 
energy and reduce carbon dioxide emissions by switching to a low power state or 
automatically powering down when the monitor is on but not in use. 
 

“NEC is committed to continuing its strong leadership role within the industry by 
contributing to a greener environment with an eco-friendly display in the quickly-growing 
23-inch category,” said Lynn Gu, Product Manager for NEC Display Solutions. “The 
MultiSync E231W uses an LED-backlit panel to increase energy savings by up to 40% in 
comparison to conventional CCFL-backlit LCD monitors. This is especially beneficial for 
our business customers in this economic downturn.” 
The widescreen MultiSync E231W includes the following features: 
• 23-inch 16:9 W-LED backlit panel 
• 1920 x 1280 full HD resolution 
• 25,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio 
• 4-way ergonomic stand with 110mm height adjustment, tilt, swivel and pivot
