*You can configure a 50-inch display and control system with a slim 
4.6-inch profile by simply combining the TH-50PHD7 Plasma Display and 
TY-TP50P6-S Touch Panel, then mounting the VC250 PDP Controller 

Information System Using the Twisted-Pair-Cable Receiver Board
Multi-Screen System Using RGB Active Through Terminal Board
Eye-catching huge display system at shopping malls
and event sites
•Easy-to-Configure Multi-Screen System at a 
Low Cost
This system shows DVD video and PC data on a giant
9-screen (3 x 3) display. This system, which requires
no image enlargement device, makes it possible to
have a multi-screen system at a low cost.
• Easy-to-See Information
The system displays enlarged XGA images with
excellent quality.
• Various Display Patterns and Powerful Impact
A "control PC" connected through a serial interface
lets you switch the input sources and control various
display patterns. 
Displaying up-to-date information such as transportation schedule
changes, stock market conditions, and countless other possible
subjects.
• Real-Time Information Bulletins
The use of the CAT5e twisted-pair cable allows content to be sent from
the server in real-time, for instant response to events such as sudden
changes in transportation schedules or accident information as it
becomes available.
• Long-Distance Transmission of High-Quality Video Signals
High-resolution XGA images, sound and RS232C control signal are
transmitted approximately 150 m over a single cable. PDP control
signals can also be sent over the same cable to allow remote operation
of power ON/OFF and other functions.
• Higher Signal Quality, Lower Costs, and Easier Installation
Thin, lightweight CAT5e twisted-pair cables do a better job of
preventing signal degradation than coaxial cables. They also reduce
costs and shorten the time needed for installation.
System Configuration
*By mounting the KE0101CRBW Twisted-Pair-Cable Receiver Board 
(video, audio and control) in the plasma display, images can be sent to the 
display from an office up to 150 meters away.
*Using the KE0108CHDW Twisted-Pair-Cable Splitter, several plasma 
displays can be connected in a cascade configuration.

HD-SDI/SD-SDI System for Broadcast Use
Displays crisp, clear images in a studio or control room.
• Adapts Easily to HD-SDI/SD-SDI Systems
The PDP adapts easily to HD-SDI and SD-SDI, the digital interfaces
used in broadcasting and video production. Simply plug the SDI or HD-
SDI terminal board into the function slot.
• Larger Screen with Wider Viewing Angle
Large PDP screens range from 42 to 50 inches — a big advantage
over the maximum 32-inch screen available with conventional HD-CRT
monitor displays for broadcast use. PDP screens also offer a wider
viewing angle and easier, more comfortable monitoring.
• Saves Rack Space
With its thin profile, a PDP takes up less rack space than a CRT
monitor.
• Ideal as a Studio Monitor 
When the PDP is used as a studio monitor display, its large screen and
wide viewing angle provide superior viewing for performers and
production crew. The PDP also requires little installation space and is
easy to move. When a 65-inch PDP is used for recording a programme
with a live audience, it helps create a livelier, upbeat atmosphere.

Signal Distributor
Easy, interactive content distribution system for retail chains and public
spaces such as shopping malls, office buildings and hotels
• Constructing a Multi-Language Environment
In contrast with conventional methods, in which several information
panels are prepared in different languages, this digital system allows
visitors to simply touch the panel itself to switch to the language they
want. It is a highly effective and efficient way to offer people the content
that they want to see.
• Flexible Content Control
Each Controller fits inside the Plasma and has a unique IP address,
allowing content to be streamed to the Plasma on any LAN, modem,
Internet or Satellite network. It speeds up the process of updating
information, and any combination of Plasmas can be controlled locally
or from a central location.
• Space-Saving and Easy to install
We have slimmed down the display system by incorporating the
optional PDP Controller (see page 17) right inside the plasma display. It
requires only two connections, power and network.
• Universal System Design
Since the entire system is configured in a Windows environment, the
Controller is compatible with a wide variety of off-the-shelf software
applications.
