Overview

The Panasonic TH-55CQ2 is a 55-inch 4K display with 3840 x 2160 resolution, 400 cd/m² typical brightness and a built-in TV tuner. It has 20 W built-in speakers, three HDMI inputs and a rated operating time of 16 hours per day, suiting classrooms, meeting rooms and reception areas across Qatar that need a dependable screen for presentations and information.

What the TH-55CQ2 is built for

The TH-55CQ2 is a 55-inch display from Panasonic's CQ2 entry series, designed for showing presentations and information in offices, classrooms and meeting rooms. Its 54.6-inch panel (1388 mm) shows a 3840 x 2160 image, four times the pixel count of Full HD, and accepts 4K/60p signals over HDMI. It is a sensible single-screen choice for a room where the display is the focus of every session.

Picture and panel facts that matter in a meeting room

Brightness: 400 cd/m² typical, with a 1200:1 typical contrast ratio.
Viewing angle: 178° horizontal and vertical, so people seated at the side of a room still see a readable picture.
Anti-glare surface: low-reflection treatment with 1% haze, which helps where daylight from windows reaches the screen.
Response time: 8.0 ms typical, grey to grey.

Connections and control for a mixed AV setup

Three HDMI inputs with HDCP 2.2 support let a laptop, a video conferencing codec and a media player share one screen. A PC input on a mini D-sub 15-pin connector, a stereo audio input, an RCA audio output, a LAN port and an RS-232C serial port cover older equipment and control systems. HDMI CEC lets the display remote handle basic power functions on compatible devices, although control of every device cannot be guaranteed and VIERA Link is not supported. The LAN port supports PJLink for network control and status queries.

Where it fits across Qatar

A classroom at a private school in Al Wakrah being fitted out for a new term. A 55-inch screen suits a standard teaching room, and the built-in speakers mean no extra speakers are needed to play video with sound.
A meeting room in West Bay where staff join calls with colleagues abroad. Three HDMI inputs keep a laptop, a codec and a second source ready without swapping cables before each call.
A hotel lobby or serviced apartment reception in The Pearl showing information loops. Numbered files stored in a folder named AUTO_PLAYBACK play automatically from a USB drive, and the TV tuner can serve a guest lounge that also shows live programmes.

Planning the wall, power and climate

The display measures 1242 x 713 x 66 mm and weighs 17.4 kg. Its wall-hanging pitch is 400 x 400 mm with M6 fixings, and in landscape orientation it tilts forward up to 20 degrees, which helps when it is mounted above eye level. Check the wall and fixings before ordering, and book a free site survey for any wall that will carry a heavy panel. The source data lists a power requirement of 110-127 V AC, 50/60 Hz, with 135 W consumption and about 0.5 W in standby. Qatar mains supply is 240 V, 50 Hz, so confirm the Qatar-compatible specification with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering. The operating range is 0 to 40 degrees Celsius up to 1400 m altitude, with humidity from 20% to 80% non-condensing. Summer outdoor temperatures above 45 degrees mean the room's air conditioning must keep the display inside that range. The unit is rated for 16 hours of operation per day. Still pictures left on screen for long periods can leave image retention, so schedule moving content regularly.

Questions about TH-55CQ2

Who is the Panasonic TH-55CQ2 best suited to?

It suits organisations that run presentations, information displays and video calls in rooms of medium size, such as a classroom, a training room or a small boardroom. The 55-inch class panel shows 3840 x 2160 pixels, which keeps slide text and diagrams crisp. For a larger lecture hall or boardroom, the same CQ2 series also includes 65-inch, 75-inch and 86-inch models.

What picture specifications does the TH-55CQ2 offer?

The panel has a 3840 x 2160 resolution, 400 cd/m² typical brightness and a 1200:1 typical contrast ratio. It accepts 4K/60p signals over HDMI, has a 178° viewing angle and an 8.0 ms typical response time. Its anti-glare surface, rated at 1% haze, helps reduce reflections from windows and ceiling lights in meeting rooms.

Can the TH-55CQ2 run for a full school or office day?

The source data rates this model for 16 hours of operation per day, which suits a private school in Al Wakrah running lessons across a long timetable, or an office that keeps a reception display on through working hours. If a still picture stays on screen for long periods, image retention can remain, so schedule moving content, which helps the retention fade.

Does it have a built-in TV tuner and speakers?

Yes. It has a built-in TV tuner with an F-type RF input and a Sports mode for live sport, which suits a sports bar, restaurant or staff lounge. It also has 20 W (10 W + 10 W) built-in speakers, so content with sound plays without external speakers. That helps where wall space is limited, such as a hotel reception in The Pearl.

How do I control it over a network or from an existing control system?

The RJ45 LAN port supports PJLink, a standard that lets a computer control the display and query its status. An RS-232C serial port (D-sub 9-pin) lets you add it to an existing control system and control several devices simultaneously. HDMI CEC can handle basic power on and off for compatible devices from the display remote, but control of all devices cannot be guaranteed and VIERA Link is not supported.

Which inputs will I need for laptops and video conferencing equipment?

It has three HDMI inputs (HDCP 2.2 supported), a PC input on a mini D-sub 15-pin connector with a stereo audio input, and an RCA audio output. A meeting room in West Bay could connect a laptop to one HDMI input, a video conferencing codec to a second and a media player to the third, so staff do not swap cables before each call.

Will it run on Qatar's 240 V mains supply?

Do not assume it will. The source data lists a power requirement of 110-127 V AC, 50/60 Hz for this model, while Qatar mains supply is 240 V at 50 Hz. Before ordering, ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to confirm the variant that matches Qatar's supply, and include the power requirement in your quotation request. Power consumption is 135 W, with about 0.5 W in standby.

How hot can the room get before the display is affected?

The operating temperature is 0 to 40 degrees Celsius up to 1400 m altitude, and 0 to 35 degrees between 1400 and 2800 m, with humidity from 20% to 80% non-condensing. Outdoor summer temperatures in Doha can exceed 45 degrees, so the room's air conditioning must hold the display within the operating range. Avoid placing it where direct sunlight through a window heats the screen.

What wall space and mounting do I need in a Lusail office?

The unit measures 1242 x 713 x 66 mm and weighs 17.4 kg, with a 400 x 400 mm wall-hanging pitch and M6 fixings. It is designed for landscape orientation and can tilt forward up to 20 degrees, which helps when mounted high. Before fixing it to a wall in Lusail, a free site survey can confirm that the wall and fixing points can carry the load.

Can a school order several units under an LPO?

Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders, including Monaqasat, with payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Delivery covers all eight municipalities of Qatar and installation is professional. Quotations usually follow within one working day, so a school fitting out several classrooms can send the number of units, room sizes and mounting walls to request a quote.
