Features

¦Incorporation of high performance XGA wide

plasma panel.

The XGA wide panel incorporates pioneering developments that have allowed realization of more than 2.5 times the data capacity of the VGA panel used at the TV broadcasting level until now*.

With a definition of 1280 pixels horizontal and 768 pixels vertical, the XGA wide panel provides unsurpassed reproduction of a wide range of images from personal computers.

*When the screen aspect is 4:3 VGA: 640 pixels x 480 pixels XGA: 1024 pixels x 768 pixels

¦Achievement of XGA class high level luminance

Even in the case of luminance, which is difficult to keep consistent with the level of definition, using originally developed PIONEER technology for optimization, top level luminance has been achieved at this definition.

¦Realization of thin 9.8 cm unit depth while retaining

a maximum class level 50 inch screen

As well as producing a 50 inch wide screen, which has been difficult to do with a direct view CRT, the extremely thin 9.8 cm unit depth size opens up completely new possibilities to how viewing rooms may be designed.

¦Unlimited placement possibilities

Designed to be attached to a wall, set on a table top stand or placed on a floor rack, this unit can be installed many ways.

¦Optional line (sold separately)

(For details, please consult the dealer where this unit was purchased.)
