New MultiSync Line Expands Color Precision, Shrinks Desktop Footprint
NEC Display Solutions is calling its MultiSync PA line “the successor to the MultiSync 90 Series.”
NEC Display Solutions has introduced the MultiSync PA241W. It’s a 24-inch desktop display, and it’s being billed by its maker as the successor the MultiSync 90 Series.
NEC Display Solutions of America, maker of commercial LCD display and projector solutions, continues the 90 Series tradition, the company says, by designed a product that is “ideal for digital photography, video editing, print production, and any environment in which color accuracy is crucial.”
The PA241W, NEC says, delivers crisp images while adding improved color coverage, in a sleeker industrial design with enhanced connectivity. The display features 102 percent coverage of NTSC and 99.3 percent of Adobe RGB–an increase from 72 percent in the MultiSync LCD2490WUXi≤.
With a 38 percent smaller footprint size, the display provides users with more desktop space and decreased costs in shipping and storage. Moreover, improved cable management enables simpler setup. Added 10-bit DisplayPort and USB hub also add to the configuration options.
