Sony Electronics has bookended its BRAVIA professional display lineup with two versatile choices for professionals – the 100-inch FW-100BZ40J and the 32-inch FW-32BZ30J.  These models, which feature Sony’s image quality resulting from a high quality picture processor, ease of use and advanced design, are optimized for use in businesses including corporations, higher-education institutions, hotels and retail establishments, from small spaces to large venues.  Additional features such as Pro Mode for customized settings, IP control, and mirroring functionality enhance flexibility in various business applications.

These models incorporate the same high quality picture processor as Sony’s BRAVIA televisions to heighten picture quality in 4K resolution.  The FW-100BZ40J creates immersive pictures that combine amazing color, contrast, clarity and smooth motion using the new XR Processor.  The processor employs cognitive intelligence which can cross-analyze an array of elements in the picture at once, just as our brains do. The model also achieves high brightness of 600-nit (typical) and 940-nit (peak) by the Full Array Local Dimming backlight ideal for signage use.  The FW-32BZ30J features the X1 Processor to deliver a superior 4K picture. The displays’ TRILUMINOS technology provides a wide range of colors for more natural and realistic images even for small huddle spaces.

The System on a Chip (SoC) platform and Android TV™ OS enables applications to run more efficiently.  An upgraded user interface allows for easy operation for commercial users.  Professional BRAVIA displays have a unified B2B platform, ensuring customers and systems integrators can install the displays with the same user interface.  Additionally, both models support 5GHz Wi-Fi access point and also offer a built-in “soft AP” for directly connecting wireless devices to the display.

These models are easy to use, setup and incorporate into existing environments.

Pro Mode enables users to fine-tune the display settings and account for specific behaviors depending on the application such as corporate, education, hotel and retail.  IP control capability allows easy installation through support of key partners including Crestron, Extron and Kramer.  Additionally, Sony’s BRAVIA displays are the only professional displays that feature integrated mirroring functionality through both Chromecast built-in™ and Apple AirPlay 2, providing a simple, quick and seamless connection from a user’s device.  With AirPlay 2, users can stream, control, and share their favorite content directly from their iPhone, iPad or Mac to the display.

The displays have a sophisticated cosmetic design constructed with businesses in mind.  The FW-100BZ40J’s four-side robust aluminum bezels are symmetrical, while the carrying handle provides ease of mobility.
