Sharp M861 – 86" 4K UHD HDR Commercial Monitor 24/7

Product Overview

The Sharp M861 is an 86-inch 4K UHD commercial monitor designed for digital signage, lobby displays, large conference rooms, and corporate communication applications requiring 24/7 continuous operation. With a 500 cd/m2 direct-lit IPS panel, 8000:1 contrast ratio, HDR10 and HLG support, Tile Matrix video wall capability, and Crestron Connected certification, the M861 delivers professional large-format performance in a slim modern form factor. An open Intel SDM slot allows optional compute modules for integrated media playback, making it a flexible platform for evolving digital signage requirements.

Product Description

The M861 uses a 3840x2160 IPS-type direct-lit LCD panel with 25% haze to reduce reflections in ambient-lit commercial environments. The 8000:1 contrast ratio and 178-degree horizontal and vertical viewing angles ensure consistent image quality across wide viewing angles in lobbies, open spaces, and large meeting rooms. HDR10, HLG, and Photographic Quantizer (PQ) tone mapping provide accurate HDR content rendering for broadcast and media applications. Two HDMI 2.0 and two DisplayPort 1.4 inputs with loopout support daisy-chain signal distribution for multi-display installations. Tile Matrix enables the M861 to participate in video wall configurations. The open Intel SDM slot is compatible with optional NMP media players and Intel SDM compute sticks for integrated content playback without an external device. Dual RJ45 LAN ports and NaViSet Administrator 2 support enable network-based remote monitoring and management. Built-in 10W x 2 stereo speakers and a 3.5mm audio output support ambient audio for signage content.
