May 1, 2011

NEC Display Solutions of Americaannounced today the addition of a 65-inch model to its commercial-grade V Series, the V651.

According to a press release, the company designed it for extended use in retail, restaurants, indoor venues, training facilities and corporate boardrooms. It introduces several features to the V Series product line, including a full 1080p high-definition resolution that provides detail and crisp imagery with a commercial-grade LCD panel that protects against permanent image retention.

Along with a built-in expansion slot that allows for seamless integration of NEC accessories, third-party components and OPS-based products, the V651 offers built-in, low-profile 10W speakers and connectivity with a digital loop-through option.

"The V651 is an excellent addition for customers that want to brighten their facility with a product that brilliantly displays dynamic content," said Rachel Karnani, NEC's product manager for Large-Screen Displays. "The addition of the expansion slot future-proofs the display and offers a solution for current technologies like a single-board computer. Customers will appreciate the added features in this new model, as well as the increase in size to accommodate larger areas and audiences."

• Commercial-grade, sealed panel design with advanced cooling capabilities
• Brightness of 400 cd/m2
• Contrast Ratio of 5000:1
• Full 1080p high-definition resolution
