Sharp LCD Monitor Unlocks New Possibilities
The PN-V601 is the ideal choice for a countless number of exciting, nearly seamless
multi-screen configurations. This stylish monitor is an attention-grabbing and
impressively sized display, bringing a multitude of digital signage possibilities to public
places such as shopping malls, airports, museums, and more.
Enlarge (Zoom) Display Mode
(for up to 25 Monitors)
The Enlarge (Zoom) Display mode can spread one
image across up to 25 monitors (in a 5 x 5
configuration) from a PC. The Frame Width
Adjustment function eliminates misalignment and
boldly enhances the enlarged image on a
multi-screen display.
Full-Array LED Backlight
To give the PN-V601 more uniform brightness than
conventional CCFL* backlighting can offer, Sharp
has positioned LED elements across the entire panel
directly behind the liquid crystal layers, ensuring that
Sharp multi-screen displays are bright and beautiful.

When one of the monitors in a multi-screen
configuration is fitted with a remote control sensor
box, all of the monitors can be conveniently operated
through one remote control unit. And to help with
overall energy savings, a brightness sensor
automatically adjusts the brightness of the backlight
to match the ambient lighting.

Multiply the Imagination
The limitations of the past are gone. Thanks to the PN-V601’s ultra-slim
bezel, the lines between neighbouring monitors are an almost seamless
6.5 mm*1 wide (2.4 mm right and bottom, 4.1 mm left and top).*2 This
allows for the display of large, crisp, and dynamic images that will catch
the eyes of many. And since these multi-screen configurations can be
effortlessly set up almost anywhere space allows, the only thing left to do
is tap the boundless human imagination and explore all the possibilities
that multi-screen configurations have to offer.
