INTRODUCING THE NEXT GENERATION OF AQUOS BOARD INTERACTIVE DISPLAYS

Smart, integrated collaboration tools and quick, responsive operation make these displays ideal for hybrid meeting or classroom environments

MONTVALE, N.J., May 3, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Sharp Imaging and Information Company of America (SIICA) and Sharp NEC Display Solutions of America (SNDSA) are excited to introduce the next generation of AQUOS BOARD® interactive displays. Available in three sizes, the PN-L862B: 86" Class (85.6" diagonal), PN-L752B: 75" Class (74.5" diagonal) and PN-L652B: 65" Class (64.5" diagonal) displays are perfect for higher education classrooms and / or corporate meeting spaces that require quick, responsive operation and smart, integrated collaboration tools.

The PN-L2B AQUOS BOARD range of smart interactive displays combines genuine "4K reading and writing" and an intuitive "Pen-on-Paper" user experience with Sharp's PrecisionTouch and zero bonding technology. The single USB-C connector makes it simple to walk into a room, plug in your device and start collaborating straightaway. In addition, a built-in wireless connectivity application allows users to wirelessly present their content on the AQUOS BOARD display screen quickly and easily. A variety of operating systems are supported including Windows®, Android™, iOS®, macOS®, iPadOS®, Chrome™ OS. The PN-L2B AQUOS BOARD interactive displays also feature an integrated controller with whiteboard and overlay mode.

Other features, such as open architecture design, the ability to easily connect to various types of PC sources and the latest high-speed, high-bandwidth USB-C port, provide for exceptional flexibility and freedom of use. To ensure online meetings or class experiences look and sound the best they can be, the PN-L2B AQUOS BOARD range of smart interactive displays supports the optional PN-ZCMS1 AV soundbar, a 6-element microphone array with 8 watts of crystal clear audio along with 4K Ultra HD video resolution.

A range of standard software to help get the most out of meetings and presentations are included for added productivity, such as: Sharp's Pen Software, Sharp's Touch Viewer software and Bytello Share wireless casting app. These AQUOS BOARD interactive displays also form a part of the Synappx-ready office technology provided by Sharp. They support the new Synappx Collaboration Hub, which helps organizations create effective hybrid meetings by enabling dynamic collaboration through videoconferencing with the optional AV Soundbar. Synappx Collaboration Hub helps organizations make the employee's office experience valuable, sparking creativity and innovation.

"The PN-L2B AQUOS BOARD range of smart interactive displays are our most advanced and flexible interactive displays to date and are perfect for the new hybrid work or education environments," said Gary Bailer, Director of Product Planning and Marketing. "With the amazing array of features in these displays, users can simply walk into a meeting room or classroom and connect and share with all of the participants, whether they are in the room or connected via your favorite unified communications platform."

The PN-L752B AQUOS BOARD interactive display is expected to ship immediately with the PN-L862B and PN-L652B shipping later this month. The PN-ZCMS1 AV soundbar is expected to ship in June.
