So everything you need is there. In addition, the integrated USB media player makes it easy to play your video, audio or image files from a USB stick. And if you do want more computing power, the Sharp/NEC MultiSync ME651 has an Intel® SDM slot and the option of integrating a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 into the ME651. The ME651 display can be used 18 hours a day, making it suitable for restaurants, retail but also for businesses. Find out below how to perfectly stage and optimally use the Sharp/NEC MultiSync ME651 and which other features are included:

In many areas it depends purely on the message you want to show the customer. Be it in the form of advertising, a welcome text, displaying the next event dates, etc.. For this purpose, the Sharp/NEC ME651 is equipped with ultra-high 4K resolution with 3840 x 2160 pixels and a brightness of 400 cd/m². This makes it suitable for rooms and places of use without direct sunlight, such as in the entrance area of a company to greet business partners and customers, making them feel welcome straight away. Or you can use it as a menu board to display the selection of your food and drinks. The HDR compatibility of the ME651 ensures vivid and natural images and videos.

Basically, the Sharp/NEC MultiSync ME651 is equipped with an integrated USB MediaPlayer. This means that your digital signage content can be played back in Ultra HD quality directly from a USB stick (via USB 2.0 connection). No annoying additional cables or digital signage software programmes are necessary. This is simple and saves time and money. Sometimes there is the case that a failure can occur and the content is no longer shown on the display. For this Sharp/NEC has the Input Detect function for the ME651: This allows you to prioritise up to three input sources, which the display can then access if a main signal source fails. The display then switches automatically according to your defined prioritisation. The First Detect option also ensures that the display switches on automatically when a source is connected and the display thus receives a synchronised signal.

In addition, HDMI 2.0 and DisplayPort connections are available for connecting computers and Blu-ray or DVD players, for example. Two 10-watt speakers are available for the necessary sound. You can also increase the power with external speakers, such as the Active Collaboration Soundbars, which you can find in our shop. Above all, however, the ME series scores points when more computing power is desired: the MultiSync ME651 has an Intel® SDM slot that is compatible with Intel® Smart Display Modules (Large/Small). The module can be inserted directly into the designated slot of the MultiSync ME651 without the need to install external devices or cumbersome video and audio cabling. You can find a selection of Intel® Smart Display Modules, which you can add as an option, in our shop.

The Sharp/NEC Message series also have the option of being upgraded with a BirdDog Intel® Smart Display Module (Intel® SDM). BirdDog has developed a complete operating system for the Intel SDM platform, simply called BirdDog OS, to provide a truly integrated NDI distribution system. Backed by BirdDog's technology, BirdDog OS has built-in Crestron control and a RESTful API for full automation. More information can be found here.

In addition, there is the possibility to further upgrade the ME651: the ME series also supports the integration of a Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 at . The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 can be used just below the Intel SDM slot. This open-platform solution offers above all flexibility and performance in the creation of customised display applications. Gigabyte network speeds, faster CPU and 4K support are just a few features. In addition, the module also includes the new user-friendly NEC MediaPlayer. Using the intuitive NEC MediaPlayer user interface, you can upload, schedule and edit your playlists, access the internal storage, retrieve online media via an internal browser or connect the RPi to CMS platforms from qualified partners. The display interface board's Ethernet and USB interfaces allow easy integration into a network or connection to external devices such as mouse, keyboard and touch. For more information, you can view and purchase the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 in our shop. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact our customer service (phone, email, live chat).

Alternatively, the Sharp/NEC MultiSync ME651 is also available as a signage solution with NEC MediaPlayer already integrated. With the modular SoC MediaPlayer, you can realise ready-to-use and easy-to-manage digital signage content. This gives you the opportunity to create stunning visual experiences. If you would prefer to purchase the MultiSync ME651 in a bundle with the NEC MediaPlayer, then you will of course also find it in our shop. The ME series is also compatible with the Cisco WebEx Kit products, so you can create an optimal conference solution with the Sharp/NEC MultiSync ME651.

Facility managers also benefit from the Sharp/NEC MultiSync ME651 display, because thanks to the integrated LAN and the NaViSet Administrator 2 software tool, the display can be controlled via the network. All connected NEC devices can be managed from a central location. Change settings or perform operations on the units, such as power on/off, change input signal, mute, etc., or check settings and/or parameters on a regular basis. These are just a few of the functions you get with the NaViSet Administrator 2 software tool. For more information you can simply follow this link. Your administration effort and the associated costs are reduced - this is how resource-saving device management works!
