Philips 86BDL3552T/00 – 86" T-Line Interactive Classroom Display

Product Overview

The Philips 86BDL3552T/00 is an 86-inch T-Line 4K UHD interactive classroom display designed for K-12 and higher-education learning spaces as well as corporate training rooms. Its 20-point heat-enhanced infrared touch panel, anti-glare toughened glass, and integrated Android SoC let teachers annotate, whiteboard, and cast wirelessly without a dedicated PC. Rated for 18/7 commercial operation, it is built for heavy daily use across an academic schedule. For AV integrators, the OPS slot, RS232 serial control, and LAN-based CMND management simplify campus-wide deployment.

Product Description

Education technology buyers comparing interactive flat panel installations will find the 86BDL3552T delivers a 3840 x 2160 LED-backlit LCD panel at 350 cd/m2 brightness with a 500,000:1 dynamic contrast ratio — sized so an entire classroom can read fine text from the back row. The 20-point infrared touch system is HID compliant, so touch works plug-and-play with Windows, macOS, and Chrome devices, and the toughened anti-glare glass is engineered to withstand constant student interaction.

The integrated Android SoC runs native and web apps directly on the display, including built-in whiteboard mode, so a classroom can start a lesson without booting an external computer. When a managed Windows image is required, the OPS slot accepts a full slot-in PC — power and signal are handled internally with no external cabling. Connectivity includes four HDMI 2.0 inputs plus DisplayPort, DVI-I, USB-C, and multiple USB ports for room cameras and peripherals.

Wireless screen sharing supports multiple connected devices with four simultaneous feeds on screen, using the existing campus Wi-Fi or optional CastTo HDMI dongles for guest presenters who cannot join the secured network. For district-wide AV integration, IT teams can monitor and control the entire fleet over LAN with Philips CMND & Control, while RS232 and RJ45 ports tie into room control processors.
