PN-V551

Sharp’s 55-Inch Full-HD Monitor
Expands Choices for Video Wall Installations
High-Quality Digital Signage Solution
Offers Style and Precision
Sharp’s 55-inch full high-definition PN-V551 professional LCD monitor features a 3.5 mm* ultra-slim bezel that gives you
the flexibility to build video walls with the dimensions to grace virtually any commercial or public space. Whether
installed in a shopping mall, hotel, control room, transport hub, or conference hall, a bank of these monitors will convey
your message with overwhelming style and precision. Four monitors set up in a 2 x 2 configuration, for example, will let
you display every last pixel of native 4K Ultra HD (3,840 x 2,160-pixel) content on the equivalent of a 110-inch screen.
Thanks to Sharp UCCT (Uniform Colour Calibration Technology), colour reproduction and brightness are beautifully
consistent on each individual LCD monitor and thus across the entire video wall.
* 3.5 mm is the minimum combined frame width for neighbouring monitors, excluding the gap between the monitors.
Dynamic Video Wall Setup Delivers
High Visual Impact
Excellent Image Quality
The PN-V551 monitor combines
full-HD (1,920 x 1,080-pixel)
resolution with a display brightness
of 700 cd/m2 to deliver stunningly
bright and detailed images. Full-HD
resolution ensures that everything
from fine text to intricate graphics
is displayed crisply and clearly.
Four PN-V551 monitors set up in a
2 x 2 configuration, for example,
can beautifully render every single
pixel of 4K Ultra HD (3,840 x
2,160-pixel) content in a form
equivalent to a 110-inch LCD
monitor. What’s more, Sharp
UCCT (Uniform Colour Calibration
Technology) realises brilliant
uniformity of colour and brightness.
Whether in a commercial or business setting, multiple full-HD
PN-V551 monitors can be joined together to create an eye-catching
video wall that expands the reach of your message. Multi-monitor
configurations are easy to assemble and easy to control via the
RS-232C interface or via a network.

Sharp UCCT (Uniform Colour Calibration Technology) Significantly Increases Uniformity of Colour*
To varying degrees, unevenness of colour and brightness may occur in LCDs. To compensate for this, Sharp UCCT ensures uniformity of
colour and brightness across the entire LCD monitor by properly adjusting colour levels with high precision and high definition (at the
pixel level).
Hybrid Correction of RGB Colour and Brightness
Close-up image of LCD
The display characteristics of each small area in the LCD
are measured in terms of various RGB input signals.
Uniformity of colour and brightness is then calibrated
and corrected for each RGB signal element in a given
area, as shown in the graphs below.

Ultra-Slim Bezel
Mirror Frames (PN-ZR42/ZR43*1)
3.5 mm
The ultra-slim bezel on a
PN-V551 monitor enables
you to combine multiple units
to create a virtually seamless
digital canvas. The bezels of
adjacent monitors in a video
wall combine for a total bezel
3.5 mm
width of just 3.5 mm*1—1.2
mm on the right and bottom sides, and 2.3 mm on the left and top
sides*2. This enables the display of large, crisp images with minimal
distraction and maximal impact.
In multi-monitor configurations, optional Mirror Frames minimise*2
the visible lines between slim-bezel PN-V551 monitors by reflecting
mirror images of the display content. This creates more dynamic
video walls and an even smoother big-picture effect.
A Multi-Monitor Configuration with Mirror Frames
*1: Minimum combined frame width for neighbouring monitors, excluding the gap between
them.
*2: Non-display area for neighbouring monitors is 3.9 mm.
Without Mirror Frames
Four-Corner Carrying Handles
for Safe Setup
(Simulated images)
To ensure safe handling of a PN-V551 monitor, all four of its corners
are fitted with robust carrying handles. Together with the monitor’s
light weight of 27.5 kg, these handles enable safe transport and
easy, time-saving installation—whether vertically or horizontally.
With Mirror Frames
*1 PN-ZR42: long mirror frame; PN-ZR43: short mirror frame
*2 The visibility of the seams between monitors varies depending on such factors as the
on-screen image and the viewing angle.
24/7 Operation
Built solid, the PN-V551 monitor is ideal for use in 24-hour stores
and in other demanding professional applications that require
round-the-clock operation seven days a week.
Control Kit (PN-ZR01A)
Energy Efficiency
When one of the monitors in a video
wall is fitted with a remote control
sensor box, all of the monitors can
be conveniently operated through
one remote control unit.
The PN-V551 conforms to the ENERGY STAR®
programme, an international system for identifying
energy-efficient products.

*1 Brightness and contrast ratio depend on input mode and other picture settings. Brightness level will decrease slightly over the lifetime of the product. Due to the physical limitations of the equipment, it is not possible to maintain a precisely constant level of
brightness. *2 D-sub input terminal only. *3 Use a commercially available connection cable for PC and other video connections. *4 For both PC and AV components. *5 Analogue PC, video, and component video are switchable (via the bottom interface); use
the menu to select. Note that video and component video inputs require a conversion cable connected via the mini D-sub 15-pin jack. *6 For video signals only. *7 Display only, not including protrusions.
