NEC 52-inch S521 LCD monitor for digital signage applications
NEC today updated its S Series business offering with a new LCD monitor. The 52-inch S521 is a full high-definition display designed for environments with extended operation times, such as airports, retail and other public areas, as well as applications including corporate boardrooms, meeting rooms and video conferencing systems. The S521’s ambient light sensor provides optimum brightness based on existing light conditions, while its Enhanced Digital Signage Technology Suite boasts more than 30 built-in features to benefit a variety of applications. This model aligns with its S Series siblings in maintaining a low level of power consumption and offering a number of digital connection options, along with the standard analog connections, to satisfy the myriad of large-format display applications in which it can be installed. Users can take advantage of remote monitoring and flexible control by utilizing Ethernet, IR, RS-232 in/out and DDC/CI.
