Sharp P555-PT – 55" 4K UHD PCAP Touch Commercial Display - Discontinued

Product Overview

The Sharp NEC P555-PT is a 55-inch 4K UHD commercial touch screen display engineered for interactive digital signage, wayfinding kiosks, and collaborative meeting spaces that demand 24/7 reliability. Its factory pre-installed 40-point projected capacitive (PCAP) touch overlay delivers responsive, edge-to-edge multi-touch interaction behind 4mm tempered glass, while the wide color gamut U-IPS panel and 700 cd/m2 brightness keep content vivid in high-ambient-light commercial environments. For integrators planning an interactive large format display deployment, the P555-PT combines premium panel quality with the modular compute and control options expected in a fully commercial-grade platform.

Product Description

Built on Sharp NEC's professional P Series platform, the P555-PT pairs a 3840 x 2160 native resolution panel with the proprietary SpectraView Engine for precise color management, supporting more than 1.08 billion displayable colors (10-bit) and custom gamma adjustment including sRGB, Rec. 1886, DICOM, and HDR profiles. The projected capacitive touch screen supports 40 simultaneous touch points and responds to finger or gloved-hand input, making it well suited to interactive wayfinding, self-service kiosks, command and control workstations, and corporate collaboration. A full metal mechanical chassis with internal temperature sensors, self-diagnostics, and fan-based thermal management supports continuous 24/7 operation in demanding commercial deployments.

Connectivity is equally deployment-ready: DisplayPort 1.4 and HDMI 2.0 inputs, enhanced daisy chain output over both HDMI and DisplayPort for multi-display video distribution, and bidirectional external control via LAN or RS-232C for integration with room control systems. The display accepts an Intel Smart Display Module (SDM) for integrated media playback or signage CMS compute without an external player, and installs in landscape or portrait orientation to fit virtually any interactive digital signage design. Multi Picture Mode shows multiple simultaneous sources without extra hardware, and failover input detection automatically switches to a backup source if the primary signal drops. NaViSet Administrator 2 software simplifies fleet-level management of larger display installations, and a full commercial warranty protects the investment.

Key Features

• 40-Point PCAP Touch Pre-Installed — Anti-glare projected capacitive touch with edge-to-edge glass arrives factory-integrated, eliminating field overlay installation and alignment work.
• 4K UHD Wide Color Gamut Panel — The 3840 x 2160 U-IPS panel with SpectraView Engine reproduces a broader color range than standard commercial panels for accurate, lifelike content.
• 700 cd/m2 Brightness with HDR Compatibility — High output and local dimming keep interactive content legible in bright lobbies, retail floors, and transportation hubs.
• Designed for 24/7 Operation — Industrial-strength panel, full metal chassis, internal temperature sensors with self-diagnostics, and fan-based cooling support continuous duty cycles.
• Smart Display Module (SDM) Slot — Accepts an Intel SDM compute module so signage playback or kiosk applications run inside the display without an external PC.
• Enhanced Daisy Chain Outputs — HDMI and DisplayPort outputs distribute video and control signals across multiple displays in a single run.
• Full External Control — Bidirectional LAN and RS-232C control integrates the display into Crestron, Extron, and similar AV control system environments.
• Failover Input Detection — The display automatically switches to a secondary or tertiary source if the primary input fails, protecting always-on signage.
• Landscape and Portrait Installation — Dual-orientation support gives system designers flexibility for kiosks, menu boards, and wayfinding totems.
• Multi Picture Mode — Displays multiple simultaneous sources on one screen without additional hardware or software.

Typical Applications

• Conference room and commercial meeting space interactive collaboration
• Boardroom annotation and presentation
• Training room interactive instruction
• Government space wayfinding and self-service kiosks
• Multi-purpose room scheduling and room signage
• House of worship lobby and information displays

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the touch overlay on the P555-PT factory installed?

Yes. The 40-point PCAP touch glass is pre-installed by Sharp NEC, so the display arrives calibrated and ready to mount — no field overlay kit or alignment is required.

Can the P555-PT run signage content without an external media player?

Yes. The display includes an Intel Smart Display Module (SDM) slot, allowing a compute module to be installed directly in the display for CMS playback, kiosk software, or interactive applications.

How does the P555-PT integrate with AV control systems?

The display supports bidirectional external control over LAN and RS-232C, so it integrates with standard commercial control processors for power, input switching, and status monitoring. NaViSet Administrator 2 software is available for centralized fleet management.

Is this display rated for 24/7 operation?

Yes. The P555-PT uses an industrial-strength commercial panel with internal temperature sensors, self-diagnostics, and fan-based cooling designed for continuous around-the-clock duty cycles.

Can it be installed in portrait orientation?

Yes. The P555-PT supports both landscape and portrait installation, making it suitable for wayfinding totems, kiosks, and vertical menu boards.

Does the touch screen work with gloves?

Yes. The projected capacitive touch system responds to finger or gloved-hand input, which is useful in healthcare, food service, and industrial environments.

What warranty does this display carry?

Sharp NEC backs its P Series commercial displays with a full commercial warranty. Contact Creation Networks for current warranty terms and extended coverage options for your deployment.
