Panasonic Launches PH30-Series Professional Plasma Displays

Panasonic Solutions Company, provider of collaboration, information-sharing and decision-support solutions, has expanded its line of HD Plasma Displays with the addition of the PH30 Series. The displays are available in two models, the 42-inch TH-42PH30 and the 50-inch TH-50PH30. The displays feature a high contrast ratio of 2,000,000:1 and wide-range color reproduction surpassing the HDTV standard.

 

Built in the company’s Amagasaki Plant in Japan, which was designed from an environmentally-responsible perspective, the PH30 Series’ energy efficiency has increased by approximately 35 percent compared to its predecessor, the PH20 Series. This reduction in power consumption places the PH30 Series in line with comparable LCD professional displays without sacrificing picture quality. Like all Panasonic professional plasma displays, the PH30 Series is both lead and mercury-free.

 

Additionally, the PH30 Series plasmas offer a 100,000 hour service life compared to the 60,000 hour average of competitive LCD professional displays. The new display also features a front glass panel approximately 10 times as strong as that of an LCD. As a result, plasma displays can be installed without the need for additional protective glass panels, even in walkways with heavy foot traffic.

 

This new line of plasma displays, which can be mounted in landscape or portrait mode, features two sets of digital input and three sets of analog input connectors. Display options include touch panel overlays, anti-glare filters and speakers, as well as multiple stand and mounting solutions.
