EXCEPTIONALLY BRIGHT, RICHLY DETAILED IMAGES

 

This HDTV-compatible 42” plasma monitor offers a typical 
contrast ratio of 1000:1 as well as overall brightness rated at 
1100 cd/m2.  It displays a full 1024 x 1024 image (up to 1080 
lines interlaced or 720 lines progressive.  3D chrominance-
luminance separation and digital progressive scanning further 
enhance its extraordinary picture performance. 

TRUE XGA DISPLAY CAPABILITY (OVER 1,000,000 PIXELS) 

The PDP-42H2A is ideal for any type of multimedia presentation.  
In addition to component and composite video options, it has 
been engineered to function as a computer display monitor 
meeting XGA display specifications. 

EXCELLENT OFF-AXIS VIEWING 

The PDP-42H2A performs well in a wide range of room settings.  
Its unusually broad viewing angle–more than 175° vertical & 
horizontal–ensures that audience members at the extreme right 
and left will see a clear, undistorted image without straining. 

 

DYNAMIC AUTOMATIC IMAGE CONTROL 

An innovative Dynamic AI circuit constantly monitors different 
picture performance parameters (ambient lighting, white balance, 
etc.) and automatically makes any adjustments necessary to 
maintain optimum image quality.  There’s even a built-in screen 
saver to reduce the possibility of burn-in. 

EXTENSIVE INPUT & OUTPUT OPTIONS 

Versatility has been designed into the PDP-42H2A.  Select from 
three S-Video or composite video inputs (3 RCA and 2 BNC), 
two component video inputs (RCA and BNC), two computer 
inputs (a D-Sub 15 RGB terminal and a DVI-D input with HDCP 
for an HD set top box) and an RS-232 control port (serial D-Sub 
9).  There are also jacks for an external monitor (BNC and RCA) 
and optional speakers

 

OPTIONAL PD-NET ORGANIZER 

An optional network card makes it possible to use the PDP-
42H2A as a network monitor, using your internet browser to 
monitor and control the display's properties. Additional software 
is not required.
