NEC DISPLAY SOLUTIONS INTRODUCES NEW VIDEO WALL PRODUCT
WITH 36 PERCENT DECREASE IN BEZEL GAP
X554UNS, X554UN, and X464UN Deliver Quick Color Calibration,
DisplayPort 1.2 Multi-Streaming, and New Auto-Tile Matrixing for Reduced
Install Times
CHICAGO – March 4, 2014 – NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading provider of
1
commercial LCD display and projector solutions, announced today its fourth generation
of video wall products, capable of delivering brilliant imagery to organizations deploying
displays for 24 x 7 use in a variety of digital signage, corporate and broadcast video wall
applications.
Like their predecessors, the 55-inch X554UNS, the 55-inch X554UN and the 46-inch
X464UN are direct LED-backlight LCD displays, which allow for improved brightness
uniformity, reduced power consumption and mercury-free components.
The UNS model now minimizes that distance to a mere 3.5mm while the UN displays
have a bezel gap as low as 5.5mm. With DisplayPort 1.2 multi-streaming, they are
capable of delivering ultra-high definition resolutions across the entire canvas of displays
comprising the video walls.
In addition, Auto TileMatrix features allow a user to simply set up the size of the video
wall on the first display and automatically scale the content through the remaining
displays. With the press of a few buttons, the entire video wall is set up. The result is
faster installation, which reduces costs and improves the customer experience.
“Video walls are helping organizations bolster their brands in magnificent ways,” said
Rachel Karnani, Senior Manager of Product Marketing for Large Screen Displays at
NEC Display. “Our company has been a pioneer in the development and installation of
video walls. The latest X Series displays take video walls to the next level of customer
experience and ease of installation.”
The X Series displays also 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. An
accessory slot is now included on new X Series models as well.
