Product Overview
The Planar PS5074KT is a 50-inch 4K UHD touchscreen display from the PS Series, optimized for digital signage and interactive retail applications. Part number 998-1244-00, it delivers 500-nit brightness through a direct-lit LED-backlit LCD, embedded Android 6.0 with Wi-Fi for network content management, and 20-point IR touch for interactive kiosk and self-service deployments. Where the EP Series (EP5024K) prioritizes IT-neutral enterprise integration, the PS Series delivers a self-contained, content-ready digital signage platform in a single display unit.
Product Description
The PS5074KT is designed from the ground up for interactive digital signage. Its embedded Android 6.0 operating system eliminates the need for a separate media player, reducing installation cost and cable management overhead. Wi-Fi (802.11 b/g/n, 2.4 GHz) enables wireless content updates without running network cable to each display. The 20-point IR touch interface supports gesture-based interaction for retail product browsers, museum exhibit touchpoints, and corporate lobby directories. A 4mm anti-glare protective glass maintains image clarity in well-lit commercial environments. Connections include DisplayPort 1.2, dual HDMI 2.0 (HDCP 2.2), and VGA for external source input. A Kensington security slot protects the unit in high-traffic public environments. Built-in 10W x 2 speakers support audio messaging. TAA compliant for institutional procurement.
