Press2012-Products-X463UN

Munich, 30 January 2012 NEC Display Solutions Europe has announced the launch of the MultiSync ® X463UN, a 46-inch LCD public display with a reduced bezel width of just 5.9mm, making for the most seamless video walls to date and even more engaging public displays.

This model’s razor thin bezel is almost 24 per cent thinner than that of its predecessor, the X462UN. The high-definition 1080p resolution display’s direct LED backlight technology provides outstanding uniformity, further supporting the perception of a virtually bezel-less video wall. Being the best in class LCD videowall product, the X463UN is an ideal solution for retail signage as well as control room applications, installations in airports, train stations and the rental market.

Furthermore, the programmable ambient light sensor controlling the entire wall ensures that the brightness is automatically adjusted as the light conditions change, thereby reducing power consumption while delivering eye pleasing brightness levels .

The MultiSync ® X463UN supports NEC’s unique heat management system that enables the user to monitor and control the heat inside the display with user controllable fans. Heat management is crucial for larger walls and mission critical installations to secure reliability and longevity. This model also includes NEC’s dual slot technology, which allows for the integration of single board computers and other option slot products without the need to stow external equipment.

These features are provided along with all the other features standard in the previously launched X551UN, such as colour calibration, OSD rotation for portrait mode, a full range of inputs including DisplayPort and DVI loop through, network connectivity for automated email notifications for diagnostic purposes and TileMatrix™ technology for video walls up to 100 displays.

“Video walls are a powerful public display mechanism and the thinner the bezel, the more consistent and engaging the impact of the content,” said Thorsten Prsybyl, Product Line Manager for Public Displays, NEC Display Solutions Europe. “Combined with the rich display quality and management and control functionality, this gives users the peace-of-mind that easy operation is assured and that the content is getting across.”

Availability and Warranty
The MultiSync ® X463UN will be showcased for the first time at ISE 2012 in Amsterdam and will then be available from Mid April 2012 onwards. Each unit includes a power cord, DVI-D signal cable, user manual on CD-ROM and interface cover. The LAN control software can also be downloaded freely. NEC Display Solutions Europe offers a three-year pan-European service warranty including the backlight.
