NEC X462UN 46-inch Ultra Narrow LCD Display

NEC-X462UNThe NEC X462UN Ultra-Narrow LCD Display was announced today by the leading provider of LCD Display solutions, NEC. The huge 46-inch ultra-narrow LCD Display is designed for video wall configurations in professional digital environments like retail stores, lobbies, and other.

The NEC X462UN features the DisplayPort connection that was included in the successful X461UN premiered by NEC in early 2009, and also a new EdgeComp technology which is able to improve the brightness uniformity for a much steadier image across the whole video wall. This new feature is a correction technology which operates by decreasing the brightness from the center of the display, while actually maintaining the level of brightness around the corners.

The ultra-narrow bezel which was featured in the X461UN is also included in the X562UN to allow for a minimal distance of 7.3 millimeters between screens.

“Our enhanced X462UN exemplifies NEC’s continued commitment to developing features that advance the digital signage industry, such as our new EdgeComp technology,” said Keith Yanke, Director of Product Marketing for NEC Display Solutions. “In addition to the new features in this display, we’ve included the most popular and beneficial features that our customers request. The X461UN was a huge product for us throughout the past year and a half, and we’re excited to introduce the next generation product.”
