• Constructing a Multi-Language Environment
In contrast with conventional methods, in which several information
panels are prepared in different languages, this digital system allows
visitors to simply touch the panel itself to switch to the language they
want. It is a highly effective and efficient way to offer people the content
that they want to see.

• Flexible Content Control
Each PC connected to the Plasma has a unique IP address, allowing
content to be streamed to the Plasma on any LAN, modem, Internet or
Satellite network. It speeds up the process of updating information, and
any combination of Plasmas can be controlled locally or from a central
location.

• Universal System Design
Since the entire system can be configured in a Windows environment, it
requires no special software for content production or operation.

HD-SDI/SD-SDI System for Broadcast Use
Displays crisp, clear images in a studio or control room.
• Adapts Easily to HD-SDI/SD-SDI Systems
The PDP adapts easily to HD-SDI and SD-SDI, the digital interfaces
used in broadcasting and video production. Simply plug the SDI or HD-
SDI terminal board into the function slot.

• Larger Screen with Wider Viewing Angle
Large PDP screens range from 42 to 50 inches — a big advantage
over the maximum 32-inch screen available with conventional HD-CRT
monitor displays for broadcast use. PDP screens also offer a wider
viewing angle and easier, more comfortable monitoring.

• Saves Rack Space
With its thin profile, a PDP takes up less rack space than a CRT
monitor.

• Ideal as a Studio Monitor
When the PDP is used as a studio monitor display, its large screen and
wide viewing angle provide superior viewing for performers and
production crew. The PDP also requires little installation space and is
easy to move. When a 65-inch PDP is used for recording a programme
with a live audience, it helps create a livelier, upbeat atmosphere.

• Real-Time Information Bulletins
The use of the CAT5e twisted-pair cable allows content to be sent from
the server in real-time, for instant response to events such as sudden
changes in transportation schedules or accident information as it
becomes available.

• Long-Distance Transmission of High-Quality Video Signals
High-resolution XGA images, sound and RS232C control signal are
transmitted approximately 150 m over a single cable. PDP control
signals can also be sent over the same cable to allow remote operation
of power ON/OFF and other functions.

• Higher Signal Quality, Lower Costs, and Easier Installation
Thin, lightweight CAT5e twisted-pair cables do a better job of
preventing signal degradation than coaxial cables. They also reduce
costs and shorten the time needed for installation.
