OPS4-7P16R256S-WIN

What the OPS-M4 i7 adds to an ActivPanel

The OPS-M4 i7 is a plug-in computing module designed to slot directly into a compatible Promethean ActivPanel. Instead of placing a desktop PC beside the screen, the panel gets its processing, memory, storage and connections from this one unit, which leaves fewer cables on the floor and one device to position and maintain in each room. The -WIN suffix in the model code identifies this build, which runs Windows 11 Pro.

Processing, memory and storage

The module uses a 12th Gen Intel Core i7 processor on the Alder Lake-U platform, paired with 16 GB of DDR4 memory running at 3200 MHz across two modules. Data sits on a 256 GB NVMe SSD, which loads Windows and applications far faster than a traditional hard drive. Intel Iris XE graphics output up to 4K at 60 Hz, and the specification lists TPM 2.0 with vPro support for hardware-level security.

Connectivity for classrooms and meeting rooms

The port set covers video, peripherals and networking:

• HDMI 1.4 input for a second source, up to 4K
• HDMI 2.0 output up to 4K
• Two USB 3.0 and two USB 2.0 ports for peripherals and storage
• Two USB-C ports with USB 4.0 Gen 3x2, Thunderbolt and DP Alt support
• Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth: integrated 10/100/1000 Mbps, AX200 Wi-Fi 6E and Bluetooth 5.3
• One combined 3.5 mm audio port

Where it fits in Qatar

A lecture room at a university in Education City may need a Windows-based teaching environment with a Wi-Fi 6E connection for students' laptops, all managed from the panel itself. A private school in Al Rayyan fitting out a new block can standardise every classroom on one Windows 11 Pro setup, so teachers move between rooms without relearning different systems and the IT team manages one configuration across the building.

In a boardroom in West Bay, a meeting may mix Arabic and English documents, Windows applications and laptops from visiting staff. The USB-C and USB ports let presenters connect directly, while the Ethernet port offers a wired link where a fixed connection is preferred.

Planning the installation and operating environment

Installation should be completed by a qualified installer. The manufacturer warns that components not supplied by Promethean may affect performance, safety and the warranty, so use only compatible parts. The module is rated for operating temperatures from 0°C to 40°C and humidity from 10% to 90%. Qatar summers regularly push outdoor temperatures above 45°C, so check that the panel location, cabinet ventilation and room cooling keep the module within that range. The SmartRooms Qatar team can confirm the environment during a free site survey.

Power is specified as a 12 to 19 V DC input, with a power consumption of 69 W and 0.5 W in standby. Confirm the power arrangement with the panel and the rest of the room's equipment when preparing the quotation.

Ordering and next steps

Each order includes one OPS-M unit, two antennas and an installation guide, and the module carries a 3-year standard warranty from Promethean.
