SAMSUNG Electronics America Introduces Next Generation of MagicNetâ„¢ Enabled Displays at InfoComm 2006

Samsung Electronics America, Inc., a world leading manufacturer of professional LCD and PDP display products, today introduced the latest versions of its MagicNet enabled displays in the company’s booth, #701, at InfoComm 2006. The 40-inch SyncMasterâ„¢ 400PXn and the 46-inch SyncMaster 460PXn utilize Samsung’s MagicNet software and are designed for use in corporate and commercial digital signage applications. The MagicNet software enables users to control content across a number of displays from a remote location using a single computer, eliminating the need for a computer with every screen thereby resulting in a greater cost savings for the network operator.

Upgrades to the 2006 MagicNet enabled displays include an embedded Windows XP operating system, high definition resolution, portrait or landscape orientation modes, and video wall support up to 4×4 displays, all supported by MagicNet. These upgrades extend the capabilities of the displays with more choices for end-users while maintaining ease of use and simplifying the installation process. MagicNet enabled displays are appropriate for use in airports, malls, restaurants and commercial buildings.

“The combination of Samsung’s superb display quality with the innovation of our MagicNet technology, make the 4000PXn and the 460PXn hard to beat for a cutting-edge public display screen,” said Mark Pickard, senior product marketing manager, display products, for Samsung Electronics America, Inc. “By adding the Windows XP operating system, we have made our displays more powerful, useful and flexible for the end-user.”

In order to make content creation and distribution as simple as possible for the network operator, the displays come with Microsoft Office players, such as Microsoft PowerPoint pre-installed, requiring a minimum of training and expertise to operate the display network. This allows users to simply drag-and-drop existing content files into the schedule to plan their programming.
