4304L

What the Elo 4304L is built to do

The Elo 4304L is a 43-inch interactive touch display from Elo's IDS 04-Series. Its 42.5-inch active matrix LED LCD runs at 1920 x 1080 with a 16:9 aspect ratio, and its TouchPro PCAP layer accepts up to 40 simultaneous touches with palm rejection. It suits signage that people use directly, such as wayfinding, visitor check-in, self-service ordering and shared collaboration boards.

Touch is what separates this model from a standard commercial display. The touch layer works through up to 6mm of glass or 3mm of plastic with up to two touches, and it is rated for use with gloves up to 1.4mm. Because the touchscreen is sealed to both the bezel and the LCD, the unit can be mounted behind a mirror, set into a counter or housed in an encased kiosk.

Connectivity and compute options

The panel offers two HDMI 1.4 inputs, one DisplayPort 1.2 input and a USB-C port that carries both video and touch control. Two RJ45 ports serve the IoT LAN and an optional OSD remote, a 3.5mm TRS jack handles RS232/MDC control, and four Elo Edge Connect Micro USB 2.0 ports support accessories. Built-in IoT control works with EloView and Crestron Connected V2, and firmware can be updated over the air or by USB.

To turn the screen into a computer-driven unit, pair it with an Elo Backpack 4 or 5 running Android, an Elo Backpack with Intel, an Intel NUC on a 100 mm x 100 mm VESA plate, or a BrightSign XT, XD, XC or HD series player.

Where it fits across Qatar

In Doha, a government service centre in the Industrial Area or West Bay could place the 4304L at a visitor kiosk where citizens search a directory or book a counter. A private clinic in Al Sadd might use it at a check-in desk, adding a 2D barcode scanner from the optional accessory list. At a university in Education City, a unit mounted in a study room lets students connect a laptop and work on shared content by touch.

Heat is the first condition to check. The panel is rated for 0°C to 40°C in portrait, landscape and tilted positions, and 0°C to 35°C in tabletop mode, with 20 to 80 percent humidity in operation. Summer temperatures outside in Qatar can exceed 45°C, so the unit belongs in an air-conditioned lobby, meeting room or counter, not beside a sun-facing window. Confirm the exact spot with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering.

Planning before you order

Measure the wall, counter or kiosk opening before choosing a mount. At 17.87 kg unpackaged and 22.96 kg packaged, the panel needs two people to lift safely, and the VESA 400 x 400 mm pattern must line up with the bracket. A free site survey from SmartRooms Qatar can check wall structure, cable routes to the power inlet and IoT LAN port, and space behind the screen for a compute module.

Plan the connections early. The 4304L uses an IEC C13 power inlet with a supplied cord set, and its input accepts 100-240 VAC at 50/60 Hz. Ask for the plug type that suits your sockets when you request the quote. The product carries a three-year warranty with advance unit replacement, and Elo lists four- and five-year extensions with the same replacement cover. Projects with several units, such as a school fitting out multiple rooms, can be ordered on a single purchase order or LPO.

Send SmartRooms Qatar your room size, mounting position, software platform and number of units, and request a quote for the Elo 4304L. Quotations are usually issued within one working day.
