What the PN-M982 is and who it suits
The PN-M982 is a 98-inch display from Sharp's MultiSync M series, built for rooms where one large screen carries presentations, video calls or public messages through the working day. Its 3840 x 2160 IPS panel uses direct LED backlights and reaches 550 cd/m² of brightness, so content stays readable in rooms with daylight. Facilities teams, IT managers and school leaders are the people who usually specify it, because it combines screen size, network security and round-the-clock operation in one unit.
The specifications that shape the buying decision
- Image: 16:9 UHD panel with a contrast ratio of at least 8,000:1, 178 degree viewing angles and 10-bit colour depth.
- Glare control: a high-haze screen with a Pro haze level rated 25, useful where windows or ceiling lights reflect on the glass.
- Duty cycle: rated for 24/7 operation with an 8 ms typical response time.
- Environment: operating range of 0 to +40 °C and 20 to 80% humidity, with IP5x protection at the front and IP2x at the back.
- Power: internal supply rated for 100 to 240 V AC at 50/60 Hz, drawing under 0.5 W in power-saving mode.
- Build: metal chassis, 68 kg, 2,194.7 x 1,250.2 x 84.3 mm, with a 15.9 mm symmetrical bezel.
Connecting it to laptops, meeting platforms and networks
Two HDMI inputs and one DisplayPort input handle UHD at 60 Hz with HDCP 2.2. A single USB-C cable carries video, data and up to 65 W of power from a laptop, and two USB-A ports serve peripherals and storage. Both LAN ports run at 100 Mbit/s and support 802.1X for corporate networks. The panel is certified for Crestron CCV2 and XiO Cloud, verified for Cisco collaboration devices, and offers a Q-Sys plug-in. Control options include RS-232C, IR and network protocols such as SNMP and HTTP.
Where it fits in Qatar
In a boardroom in West Bay or Msheireb, a 98-inch screen lets a leadership team join Microsoft Teams or Cisco Webex calls with colleagues abroad, while the USB-C cable keeps laptop leads off the table. In a university or training centre in Education City, the two-split picture mode lets a lecturer show two sources side by side in a large seminar room. In a hotel, mall or bank lobby in The Pearl, Lusail or Al Sadd, the screen can run wayfinding or sponsor content around the clock, and the high-haze panel helps in bright, glazed entrances. Every one of these sites should keep the screen inside an air-conditioned zone, because summer temperatures above 45 °C exceed the 40 °C upper operating limit.
Planning the installation
At 68 kg, the panel needs a wall or structure rated for its weight. Its VESA pattern is 600 x 400 mm with M8 fixings, and listed options include a wall mount (L20PNWALL90EU or SF680P), a trolley (L20PNSR780MEU) and feet (ST-801). The packaged unit weighs 99 kg in a 2,350 x 1,400 x 310 mm carton, so confirm building access, doorway widths and lift capacity before delivery. SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey to check wall loading, viewing distance and cable routes before mounting. The box includes a remote control, two AAA batteries, an HDMI cable and a power cable. The manufacturer's warranty covers three years including the backlight.

Questions about PN-M982
What is the Sharp PN-M982 and who is it for?
The Sharp PN-M982 is a 98-inch professional display in Sharp's MultiSync M series, with a 3840 x 2160 IPS panel and 550 cd/m² brightness. It suits organisations that need one large screen for meeting rooms, teaching spaces or public information walls running 24/7. In Qatar, facilities managers, IT teams and procurement officers in government, education and corporate offices are the usual buyers. If you are choosing a size, compare its 98-inch screen with smaller models in the same range before requesting a quote.
Will it work in a West Bay boardroom that uses Microsoft Teams and Cisco Webex?
The manufacturer lists compatibility with Microsoft Teams and Cisco Webex, and the panel is verified for Cisco collaboration devices. In a boardroom where executives join calls with teams in other countries, the USB-C port takes video, data and up to 65 W from a laptop through one cable, so the presenter needs no separate power lead. Confirm your codec and camera setup with the SmartRooms Qatar team during quotation so it matches the platform you use.
Can it run 24/7 in a hotel lobby or clinic waiting area?
Yes, the panel is rated for 24/7 operation. That suits a hotel lobby in The Pearl, a clinic waiting area in Al Sadd or a mall atrium where content plays through the day. An integrated ambient light sensor and temperature sensor can trigger programmed actions, and a Scheduler feature is included. Plan room cooling around the 0 to +40 °C operating range, and confirm the setup with the SmartRooms Qatar team before you request a quote.
How bright is it, and will reflections from windows wash out the picture?
The PN-M982 is rated at 550 cd/m² and uses a high-haze screen with a Pro haze level of 25, which reduces glare from windows and ambient light. That helps in Doha's strong daylight, where glazed lobbies and meeting rooms can wash out a glossy image. Position the screen away from direct sun paths where possible, and ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to review window orientation during the free site survey before choosing a mounting position.
What does the USB-C port offer for laptops?
The USB-C 1 port accepts UHD video at 60 Hz over DisplayPort alternate mode 1.2, supports HDCP 2.2, carries USB 2.0 or 3.2 data and delivers up to 65 W of power. A presenter can connect a laptop with one cable, which keeps the table clear in a meeting room. A second USB-C port provides 7.5 W for peripherals and storage. Check that your laptop supports DisplayPort alternate mode and the required power level, and consider the 5 m or 7 m USB-C cables listed as options.
Which meeting platforms and control systems does it support?
The source data lists Crestron, certified for CCV2 and XiO Cloud, Cisco Webex, verified for Cisco collaboration devices, Q-Sys, with a Q-Sys plug-in, and Microsoft Teams compatibility. External control covers AMX NetLinx, Crestron V2, HDMI CEC, HTTP, PJLink, SNMP and RS-232C at 9600 bps. These options matter if your room already runs a control processor. Confirm the exact combination of codec, control system and firmware with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering.
Can it show two inputs at once?
Yes. The panel supports two-split picture-in-picture and picture-by-picture modes, with scalable picture sizes. In a university lecture room in Education City, that lets a lecturer show a slide deck beside a live feed or a second laptop. It has two HDMI inputs, one DisplayPort input and a USB-C input, so the combinations depend on the sources you connect. HDMI ARC and CEC are also supported for audio and device control. Confirm your source mix during the site survey.
Will it run on Qatar's 240 V power supply?
The internal power supply is rated for 100 to 240 V AC at 50 or 60 Hz, which covers Qatar's 240 V, 50 Hz mains supply. Qatar uses BS 1363 (Type G) sockets, so confirm that the supplied power cable matches the socket at the installation point. In power-saving mode the panel draws under 0.5 W, and in networked standby under 2 W, which helps manage running costs across several units. The box includes a power cable.
How heavy is it, and what does the wall need to take?
The display weighs 68 kg and measures 2,194.7 x 1,250.2 x 84.3 mm. It uses a 600 x 400 mm VESA pattern with four M8 holes. Use a wall or frame rated for this load, with a wall mount such as L20PNWALL90EU or SF680P, or the L20PNSR780MEU trolley for mobile use. Ask for a site survey before mounting, because the wall, fixings and lift route must be checked before the unit is delivered.
Can it be installed in a semi-outdoor space or an unairconditioned room?
No, not in an unconditioned space. The operating temperature range is 0 to +40 °C with 20 to 80% humidity, and the storage range is -20 to +60 °C. Qatar summers regularly exceed 45 °C, so a covered terrace, a loading area or a non-air-conditioned hall would push the panel outside its limits. Keep it in an air-conditioned room, and check the room's cooling with the SmartRooms Qatar team during the site survey.
What warranty comes with the PN-M982?
The manufacturer's warranty covers three years, including the backlight. Optional fourth and fifth year warranty extensions are available, and additional services can be discussed when you request a quote. Because the backlight is covered for the full three years, the warranty matters for long-running signage and meeting room use. Ask the SmartRooms Qatar team to confirm the warranty details that apply to your order before you commit.
Can a school or government office order several units through an LPO or tender?
Yes. SmartRooms Qatar accepts purchase orders (LPOs), supports government tenders including Monaqasat, and accepts payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Each PN-M982 ships with its own remote control, batteries and cables. For a multi-room order, send room sizes, mounting walls and the number of units with your request, so the quotation covers delivery to all eight municipalities of Qatar and installation planning.
