TEY41-i7

What the TEY41-i7 adds to a BenQ Board

The BenQ TEY41-i7 is an OPS slot-in computer. It sits inside the OPS slot of a compatible BenQ Board or Smart Display, giving the panel its own Windows PC without a separate unit on the floor. The package includes the OPS computer and two Wi-Fi antennas. Because the module is supported only on the models named in the manufacturer's compatibility list, check your panel number before you request a quote.

Processor, memory and storage

The module is built around a 12th Gen Intel Core i7-1255U processor with Intel Iris Xe graphics. It carries 8 GB of DDR4 memory in two 4 GB modules and a 256 GB storage drive. Windows 11 Pro is pre-installed as a trial version, so IT managers should confirm the licence position for their organisation before rollout. The unit measures 180 × 30 × 119 mm and weighs 1.23 kg, which keeps it light enough to handle during fitting.

Windows alongside Android on one panel

In Duo OS mode the built-in EZWrite whiteboard runs on the board's Android side while a full Windows system runs at the same time. A teacher can annotate on the whiteboard and open Windows-based lesson files without switching between devices. Shortcuts to favourite programs, a sidebar with recent apps and the Capture Tool, and a quick settings panel for network and screen sharing keep daily use straightforward.

Schools can also install their preferred video conferencing and hybrid learning applications on the Windows side. That allows a teacher to start a remote class directly from the board, which suits schools linking classrooms with partners abroad.

Ports, wireless and security

The module provides an HDMI 2.0 output supporting 4K UHD at 60Hz with 3.5 mm audio. Its USB ports include one USB 3.1 Type-C, two USB 3.1, one USB 3.0 and one USB 2.0. A 1GbE Ethernet port gives a wired connection, and Wi-Fi 6 covers both the 5 GHz band (802.11 a/n/ac/ax) and the 2.4 GHz band (802.11 b/g/n/ax).

A TPM 2.0 chip supports stronger encryption on Windows and helps protect login credentials and lesson files. The Intel vPro platform adds hardware-based security features and remote management capabilities, which matter when an IT team looks after several panels across a campus or office estate.

Where it fits in Qatar and what to plan for

A private school in Al Rayyan refitting several classrooms can give each teacher Windows access on the board without moving a laptop between rooms. A boardroom in West Bay where presenters bring Windows documents can run them on the panel while the whiteboard stays on the Android side. A training centre in Education City running Windows-based courses can use the module as the classroom computer, provided the chosen board is on the compatibility list.

Before ordering, confirm the board model, check that your software runs on Windows 11 Pro, and plan the network connection, choosing between Wi-Fi 6 and the Ethernet port. The product data does not list an operating temperature range, so confirm the room's cooling with the SmartRooms Qatar team before installing in a hot space. SmartRooms Qatar offers free site surveys, professional installation and delivery to all eight municipalities of Qatar. Request a quote and the SmartRooms Qatar team will confirm the details in your quotation, usually within one working day.
