Commercial displays now sit on client networks alongside every other connected device. IT departments increasingly want proof that each endpoint meets a security standard before it goes live. A refreshed LCD line from Portland, Oregon-based Planar now carries that proof, along with a cloud tool for keeping tabs on displays across multiple sites.
Planar announced that its UltraRes P Series has achieved ETSI EN 303 645 cybersecurity certification. The series is also now compatible with Planar WallDirector Cloud.
Key Things to Know
- The new-generation Planar UltraRes P Series has earned ETSI EN 303 645 cybersecurity certification, a baseline standard for connected devices.
- The displays now work with Planar WallDirector Cloud, which offers remote monitoring through a browser-based dashboard.
- The series comes in 49-, 55-, 65-, 75-, 86- and 98-inch sizes with 700-nit brightness and HDR compatibility.
- Interactive models add optically bonded, projected capacitive 50-point touch.
- The displays are available now through Planar’s global network of authorized resellers.
What Is ETSI EN 303 645 Certification?
ETSI EN 303 645 is a cybersecurity standard that sets a baseline for connected devices. The European Telecommunications Standards Institute publishes it.
Planar has earned the certification for its commercial displays before. The UltraRes P Series extends that work to the company’s newest LCD line.
For integrators, the certification gives you a recognized standard to point to when IT teams ask whether a display can be trusted on their network. That conversation often decides whether a device gets approved before installation.
How Does WallDirector Cloud Help Integrators Monitor Displays?
WallDirector Cloud lets administrators monitor displays remotely through a centralized, browser-based dashboard. It shows display health across multiple locations from one screen.
The platform also includes remote diagnostics and direct access to Planar Support. According to Planar, those tools help administrators spot and address issues faster and simplify ongoing display management.
For firms that offer managed services, remote visibility can cut the number of site visits needed to diagnose a problem. It also gives clients with distributed locations a single view of their display fleet.
What Sizes Does the UltraRes P Series Come In?
The UltraRes P Series comes in 49-, 55-, 65-, 75-, 86- and 98-inch sizes. Each display supports landscape or portrait orientation.
That range covers everything from small meeting rooms to large lobbies and command spaces. Orientation flexibility also makes the series an option for digital signage and wayfinding projects.
What Are the Key Image and Reliability Specs?
The UltraRes P Series delivers 700-nit brightness, wide color gamut and HDR compatibility. Planar designed the displays for reliable 24/7 operation.
The displays are TAA compliant, which matters for many U.S. government and public-sector projects. They’re also ENERGY STAR certified.
How Many Sources Can the Displays Show at Once?
The displays can show up to four sources at the same time using Planar MediaPlex Plus Processing. Users can view multiple inputs on a single screen without external processing hardware.
That capability suits collaboration spaces, monitoring rooms and any setting where teams need to compare content side by side.
What Touch Options Are Available?
Interactive UltraRes P Series models feature optically bonded, projected capacitive 50-point touch. The touch option supports collaboration, presentation, whiteboarding and annotation.
Optical bonding fuses the touch layer to the display panel. Integrators can choose between interactive and noninteractive models based on how each room will be used.
Where Can Integrators Buy the UltraRes P Series?
Integrators can buy the next-generation UltraRes P Series through Planar’s global network of authorized resellers. The displays are available now.
