86-inch InfinityBoard 2.1 QL

What the NEC 86-inch InfinityBoard 2.1 QL is

The NEC 86-inch InfinityBoard 2.1 QL brings a large touch display, a camera, conference speakers and a Windows PC into one 86-inch unit, which reduces the number of separate devices in a meeting room. NEC has discontinued this model. It remains a useful reference for organisations that already run it, for buyers comparing collaboration boards, and for anyone who needs a replacement. SmartRooms Qatar can quote a current equivalent or a compatible option.

Display and touch that matter in a working session

The panel is an 86-inch IPS screen with a native resolution of 3840 x 2160. Brightness is 500 cd/m², set to 350 cd/m² at shipment. The typical contrast ratio is 1,200:1 and the colour depth is 10-bit (1.073 billion colours), which suits detailed slides, spreadsheets and documents shown to a full room. The InGlass touch layer supports up to 20 simultaneous touches, responds within 15 ms and accepts finger, glove or stylus input. Windows Ink is supported. The 3 mm toughened glass has an anti-glare coating and 88 percent light transmission.

• Native 3840 x 2160 resolution, with 1920 x 1080 and 4096 x 2160 also supported
• Touch accuracy under 1 mm and response time of 15 ms or less

Built-in camera, speakers and PC for meetings

The integrated Huddly IQ camera outputs 1080p at 30 fps, with a 150-degree diagonal view, digital pan, tilt and zoom, and 3x lossless digital zoom. It installs without drivers. The camera has no microphone, so check audio pickup for larger rooms before ordering. The conference speakers accept up to 40 W input. An OPS slot holds the slot-in PC, which uses an Intel i7-7820EQ processor, 16 GB of DDR4 RAM, up to 256 GB of M.2 SATA SSD storage and Windows 10 Professional.

Where it fits in Qatar

A government authority in the West Bay area could use this model in a boardroom where Arabic and English presentations sit side by side, with the camera linking colleagues in other cities. An international school in Education City could place one in a staff planning room for collaborative lesson design. A real-estate developer in Lusail could use it in a sales gallery to review floor plans with clients. The rated operating range is 0 to +35 °C with 20 to 80 percent humidity, so it belongs in air-conditioned rooms, not in lobbies or spaces exposed to summer heat above 45 °C.

What to plan before installation

• Weight is 91.7 kg without stand, and dimensions are 2,192 x 1,142 x 86 mm
• Wall mounting uses 400 x 400 and 600 x 400 FDMI VESA patterns plus M8 holes
• Listed wall mounts are BalanceBox 650 HEAVY and PDW T XL-2, and trolleys are PD02MHA and PD03MHA
• Power consumption is listed at 242 W, and under 0.5 W in power savings mode
• Ingress protection is IP5x at the front and IP2x at the back, so use it indoors only

SmartRooms Qatar offers a free site survey before wall-mounting, so the structure and fixing points are checked first.

Software, warranty and ordering

The listed software includes Quicklaunch Ultimate Edition with three years of maintenance and support, FlatFrog Board and Hoylu on single-user licences, and Mosaic Connect at no charge. The display carries a 3-year warranty that includes the backlight, and the manufacturer lists optional fourth and fifth year extensions. SmartRooms Qatar supplies the board, delivers to all eight municipalities of Qatar and installs it professionally. Because this model is discontinued, request a quote and the team will recommend a current equivalent or compatible replacement for your room, supplied against a purchase order or LPO where needed.
