NEC Display Solutions IMPROVES V SERIES LARGE-SCREEN DISPLAYS
CHICAGO - June 06, 2011
Expansion Slot, DVI Loop-Through, Built-in Speakers Among the Newest Features

NEC Display Solutions of America, a leading provider of commercial LCD display and projector solutions, announced today three new models to its commercial-grade V Series large-screen display product line. The 46-inch V462 will replace the V461, and the 46-inch V462-AVT and 65-inch V651-AVT with integrated tuners are new to the product line. These three models offer digital signage users a cost-effective solution.

Designed for extended use in retail, restaurants, indoor venues, training facilities and corporate boardrooms, the V Series includes full 1080p high-definition resolution, built-in low-profile 10-watt speakers, and a built-in expansion slot that allows for seamless integration of NEC accessories, third-party components and Open Pluggable Specification (OPS) products. Additionally, the new DVI loop-through option allows customers to pass a digital signal from one device to the next, thereby eliminating the need for additional hardware, such as a DVI daisy chain module. The V462, V462-AVT and V651-AVT also include popular features such as NEC’s TileMatrix™ technology for building video walls up to 100 displays, a real-time scheduler to power on/off the display at a specific time, and remote diagnostics to monitor and control the display from an off-site location.

"The next generation in our V Series lineup aims to provide better connectivity with added features that will help simplify and future-proof digital signage projects," said Rachel Karnani, Product Manager for Large-Screen Displays at NEC Display Solutions. "The added NTSC/ATSC tuner in the 46-inch and 65-inch sizes will also enable customers to install the product where high-definition broadcast capabilities are desired."
