P5524QT

What the Dell P5524QT does in a meeting room

The Dell P5524QT is a 55-inch interactive touch monitor with a 4K UHD IPS panel at 3840 x 2160 resolution. It brings display, touch input and built-in speakers into one unit, so a room needs fewer separate devices to run a presentation, a shared whiteboard session or a video call. The 178-degree viewing angle keeps colour steady for people seated at the sides of a table.

Specifications that shape the buying decision

The panel has a 54.64-inch diagonal, a 60 Hz refresh rate, a 9 ms response time and a brightness rating of 350 cd/m². Its contrast ratio is 1300:1, and it covers 72% of the NTSC colour gamut with 1.07 billion colours. The anti-glare coating with 7H hardness helps reduce reflections under room lighting.

Touch is rated at 20 points, so several people can annotate at once. Palm rejection lets presenters rest a hand on the glass while writing. Two styluses are supplied with spare nibs, and each stylus attaches magnetically to the side of the display so it stays in the room.

Connectivity and IT control

Connections include three HDMI inputs, a DisplayPort input, a USB-C port, audio line-out, RS-232, an RJ45 LAN port and USB 3.1 upstream and downstream ports. USB-C supplies up to 90W of laptop charging power, so a presenter can connect video, data and charging through one cable.

• Network control: RS-232, RJ45 and HDMI CEC support a network control system
• Lock mode: IT can restrict menu and power changes in shared rooms
• Management software: Dell Display Manager helps arrange windows and manage monitor fleets

Where it fits in Qatar

A private school in Al Wakrah fitting out a new Grade 7 classroom could use the 55-inch panel for interactive lessons, with students writing answers directly on the screen. A government office in Msheireb with a small briefing room could show shared documents to staff in the room while colleagues abroad join the call. An engineering team at a plant in Mesaieed could use a lock-mode display in a shared operations office to keep settings fixed for everyone who uses the room.

Planning the installation and power

The panel weighs 34.5 kg without its stand and 35.5 kg with the stand, and its shipping weight is 41.7 kg. Without the stand it measures 129.9 cm wide, 7.9 cm deep and 77.0 cm high. It supports VESA mounting with a 300 x 400 mm interface, so you can choose a wall bracket, mobile cart or stand to suit the room. A wall fixing needs a solid wall and an extra pair of hands to lift the panel safely. Before mounting, SmartRooms Qatar can carry out a free site survey to check wall construction and cable routes.

The mains input is AC 100-240 V at 50/60 Hz, rated at 320 W in operation and 77.1 W in on mode, with 0.5 W standby and 0.3 W off mode. The operating range is 0 to 40 °C with 10 to 80% humidity, non-condensing. Summer temperatures in Qatar often rise above 45 °C, so install the panel in an air-conditioned room away from direct sunlight, outdoor walls and external doors.
