SL5502K

What the SL5502K is built to do

The BenQ SL5502K is a 55-inch non-touch display from the Pantone Validated Smart Signage line. It pairs a UHD IPS panel with its own Android 8.0 system, so you can load content from a USB flash drive or manage it over the network without a separate media player behind the screen. It is rated for 24/7 operation, which suits signage that runs through opening hours or a reception screen that stays on all day.

Colour modes and picture facts

Pantone mode is the reason most buyers shortlist this model. It is designed to keep colour consistent from design to display, which matters for brands whose logos and packaging colours must match a reference. M-Book mode suits teams that create work on macOS and want their images to appear as they do on a Mac. Cinema mode adds contrast and depth to video, and Photo mode keeps images vivid without oversaturating them.

• Resolution: 3840 × 2160 UHD, four times the pixels of a 1080p Full HD screen.
• Panel: IPS, 16:9, 8 ms response time and 10-bit colour depth.
• Brightness and contrast: 500 nits typical, with a 1200:1 typical contrast ratio.
• Colour gamut: 72% NTSC, a figure worth checking against your brand guidelines.
• Backlight life: 50,000 hours typical.

Connectivity, software and remote management

The SL5502K has two HDMI 2.0 inputs, one HDMI 2.0 output, a DisplayPort 1.1/1.2 input, a VGA input, two USB 2.0 and two USB 3.0 ports, and a 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port. It has no USB-C, no OPS slot and no touch input. Content can be designed in X-Sign using templates, updated by editing a central CSV file, pushed as real-time messages and linked with QR codes. X-Sign Broadcast can carry a YouTube live stream across several screens. The BenQ Device Management Solution lets you monitor and control displays from the cloud or locally, install Android apps across multiple screens in one operation and receive over-the-air updates.

Where it fits in Qatar

A retail outlet in Lusail can mount the panel in portrait beside a shop entrance and rotate promotions from head office, while a bank branch in Al Sadd can show financing offers and services in a waiting area. A hotel lobby in West Bay or a clinic waiting room in Doha can run welcome and wayfinding screens around the clock using the built-in Android system instead of a PC. A photography or design studio in Msheireb can proof images in Pantone or M-Book mode before printing, and schools in Al Rayyan or Education City can use it for information boards in air-conditioned corridors.

What to plan before ordering

The panel weighs 26.4 kg, or 31.4 kg in shipping packaging, and uses a VESA 400 × 400 mm mount pattern with M6 screws. A wall mount is not supplied, so choose one rated for this weight and have the wall structure checked. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys, which help when the screen must sit in portrait in a narrow space. The operating range is 0°C to 40°C at 20% to 80% non-condensing humidity, so keep it in air-conditioned rooms away from direct sun and large glass. Outdoor or unconditioned areas, where Qatar summer temperatures can exceed 45°C, fall outside that range. Typical power draw is 83 W, and the power input covers 100–240 V at 50/60 Hz, which includes Qatar's 240 V 50 Hz supply. The box includes one 1.5 m HDMI cable, one 1.5 m VGA cable and a remote control, so plan for longer cable runs and mounting hardware separately.
