TH-50EQ3

What the TH-50EQ3 delivers in a 50-inch 4K panel

The Panasonic TH-50EQ3 belongs to the EQ3 Series, an entry-level line of commercial 4K displays. Its 49.5-inch panel (1257.3 mm) runs at 3840 x 2160 resolution, which carries about four times the pixels of a Full-HD screen. The effective display area measures 1095.8 x 616.4 mm, a size that suits a meeting room table, a classroom wall or a corridor information point.

Image performance in bright rooms

The panel is rated at 500 cd/m² typical brightness and 5000:1 typical contrast, with a 9.5 ms typical response time. Its anti-glare surface, with 25% haze, reduces reflections from windows and ceiling lights, which matters in rooms where blinds cannot always be drawn. A 178 degree horizontal and vertical viewing angle keeps text readable for people seated at the ends of a long table.

Connections for shared and mixed-use rooms

• Three HDMI inputs with HDCP 2.2 support for laptops, media players and room systems
• PC input on a Mini D-sub 15-pin connector
• RS-232C and RJ45 LAN control, with PJLink support, for switching from a central controller
• USB Type-A port (USB 2.0) for playing content from a memory stick
• HDMI-CEC so that basic power functions of linked devices can be operated with the display remote

Where it fits in Qatar

In a huddle room in a Doha office, a 50-inch screen gives a small team a clear view of a shared document or a video call from a laptop, without the wall space of a larger panel. In a classroom at a private school in Al Rayyan, the three HDMI inputs let teachers switch between a laptop, a second source and a media player. In a retail store in West Bay, the display can loop 4K promotional content from a memory stick without a PC, provided each playlist is either all still images or all video, as the USB playback rules require.

Planning the installation

The panel measures 1129 x 649 x 66 mm and weighs approximately 13.5 kg. It mounts on a 400 x 400 mm VESA pattern with M6 screws, with a screw hole depth of 20 mm. It can be installed in landscape or portrait orientation, and with a landscape setting it tilts 0 to 20 degrees forward. Before drilling into a wall, SmartRooms Qatar carries out a free site survey to confirm wall construction, bracket type and cable routing.

Environmental limits matter in Qatar. The panel is rated for 0 to 40 degrees C up to 1400 m altitude and 20 to 80% humidity without condensation. With summer temperatures above 45 degrees C outside, install it in air-conditioned rooms rather than open lobbies, covered outdoor areas or spaces where direct sun reaches the screen. The rated operating time is 18 hours a day, and the manufacturer recommends showing moving images rather than a still picture for long periods to avoid image retention.

Power draw is 119 W in shipping condition, 115 W average in on mode and approximately 0.5 W in standby. The supply range is 110 to 240 V at 50 or 60 Hz, which covers the 240 V mains used in Qatar. The 20 W built-in speakers (10 W plus 10 W) suit content playback in small rooms, while a large hall may call for an external audio system.

Schools, ministries and companies ordering several units can issue a purchase order (LPO) or respond to a government tender, including Monaqasat.
