Leyard Europe has launched the Planar Simplicity E Series, a range of large-format 4K LCD displays with built-in WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity for digital signage applications.
The series comprises seven models in 43in, 50in, 55in, 65in, 75in, 86in and 98in sizes. All models offer 500 nits brightness and media playback capability, with support for continuous 24/7 operation. The displays carry Energy Star certification.
The wireless connectivity is designed to enable network connection without additional equipment. Applications include advertising, wayfinding, menu boards, presentations and emergency messaging.
Displays can be mounted in landscape or portrait orientation. Each unit includes two 10-watt speakers, on/off scheduling functionality and LAN distribution. The fanless design operates silently, and a slim profile mount is included for installation.
Connectivity options comprise three HDCP 2.2-compliant HDMI ports supporting native 4K resolution at up to 60Hz, along with USB, RS-232 and IR control.
