NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS BRINGS FULL HIGH-DEFINITION AND
LED BACKLIGHTING TO VIDEO WALLS
Top Features Include Full High-Definition Panel, Ultra-Narrow Bezel,
Digital Loop Through, Direct LED Backlighting
CHICAGO – May 3, 2011 – NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading provider of
commercial LCD display and projector solutions, announced today a new ultra-narrow
model to its X Series, the 55-inch X551UN. This professional-grade large-screen display
is designed for the rigors of 24/7 operation in a variety of video wall applications.
The X551UN is a direct LED-backlit LCD display, which allows for improved uniformity,
reduced power consumption and mercury-free components. Enhanced from its award-
winning 46-inch X462UN sibling, the X551UN has a 5.5mm distance between active
screen areas of two neighboring displays. This model is the 3rd product in NEC’s X
Series to support Intel’s Open Pluggable Specification (OPS), which is the first industry-
wide standardization in option slots to simplify digital signage. The OPS option slot
allows for easier installation, use and maintenance of digital signage
“We’re very excited about all the new features and capabilities that are integrated in the
X551UN and the solutions that can be created because of their addition,” said Rachel
Karnani, Product Manager for Large-Screen Displays at NEC Display Solutions. “Video
walls will be incredibly crisp with full 1080p resolution and the sheer 55-inch size in any
configuration will surely stop traffic in any environment. The display is future-proofed with
Intel’s OPS option slot while continuing to offer all the technologies of the X462UN that
our customers have made so popular.”
