65-inch InfinityBoard 2.0

What this discontinued NEC collaboration display does

NEC has discontinued the 65-inch InfinityBoard 2.0, so this page is written for three groups: organisations that already run one and need to understand what it can do, buyers comparing it with newer collaboration displays, and anyone looking for a replacement for a meeting room that was set up around it. The unit combines a 65-inch touch panel, a video conferencing camera, conference speakers and a Windows computer in one enclosure, so a room can be equipped with a single product rather than several separate devices.

Panel, touch and writing performance

The native resolution is 3840 x 2160, on a VA panel with direct LED backlighting. Brightness is rated at 500 cd/m² with a shipment setting of 350 cd/m², and the typical contrast ratio is 4000:1. The front is 3 mm toughened glass with an anti-glare coating and 88% light transmission (plus or minus 1%).

InGlass touch registers up to 20 simultaneous touches and responds to fingers, gloves and styluses of at least 2 mm, with accuracy under 1 mm. Windows Ink and palm rejection help people write on the screen as they would on paper, which matters in brainstorming sessions where several people write at the same time.

Built-in camera, speakers and computer

The Huddly GO camera has a 150 degree diagonal viewing angle, outputs 720p at 30 fps and offers 3x lossless digital zoom with digital pan and tilt. It connects over SuperSpeed USB and installs without drivers. The conference speakers accept up to 40 W input and cover 70 Hz to 15 kHz. The camera and speakers ship with the panel, which reduces the number of separate items a technician must mount and cable.

The OPS slot-in PC runs an Intel Core i7 processor rated 4x3 GHz, with 8 GB of DDR4 memory, a 128 GB SATA SSD, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, a TPM security chip and Microsoft Windows 10 Professional. Because the computer is a slot-in module rather than a separate box under the table, there are fewer parts to mount and connect.

Where it fits in Qatar

• A lecture or training room in Education City: a lecturer, students and a colleague abroad share one screen, with the camera and speakers covering the table.
• A ministry or authority boardroom in Msheireb or West Bay: staff review Arabic and English documents side by side on the touch surface while remote colleagues join the call.
• A private school project room in Al Wakrah: a small team annotates lesson plans directly on the screen and saves the session from the built-in PC.

What to plan before you order

Without its stand, the panel measures 1,721.3 x 897 x 86 mm and weighs 64.4 kg, so the wall must be checked for load and fixings before installation. The rear has VESA patterns of 400 x 400 and 600 x 400 with M8 holes, and the BalanceBox400-2 wall mount and trolley options are listed for this model.

The operating range is 0 to +35 °C with 20 to 80% humidity, so the room must be air-conditioned. Outdoor summer temperatures in Qatar can pass 45 °C, so keep the panel away from sun-exposed glazing, open lobbies and unconditioned stores. Ingress protection is IP5x at the front and IP2x at the back.

Power draw is 242 W in the eco shipment setting and under 0.5 W in power saving mode. The manufacturer provides a three-year warranty that includes the backlight, with optional fourth and fifth year extensions. SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey, which is worth booking before fixing a panel this size to a wall.

Because this model is discontinued, request a quote for a current equivalent or compatible replacement. Send your room dimensions, mounting wall and meeting requirements, and ask for a quote; quotations usually arrive within one working day, and purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders are accepted.
