Manage:
Durable surface
Experience the durability of the SMART Board interactive whiteboard's resilient hard-coated, polyester front sheet, which is secured over a robust aluminum composite backboard. The surface is tear proof, optimized for protection, compatible with dry-erase markers and easily cleaned. With the incredibly low return merchandize authorization rate (RMA) of less than 0.01%, SMART Board interactive whiteboards may be the toughest interactive whiteboards on the market. All SMART Board interactive whiteboards are rigorously tested, designed and produced under ISO 9001:2001 certification standards.
Simple installation
Install the 600i quickly and easily with the boom and swivel mount. The projector is mounted directly above the interactive whiteboard, so virtually any classroom can accommodate the 600i without needing complicated wiring or ceiling mounting. The system's integrated elements also ensure it is easy to maintain.
Maintenance-free operation
Eliminate the need for regular maintenance and filter cleaning. The UF55 features a filter free design, enabled by the use of DLP Technology. This Technology ensures that there are no filters to clean, maintain and replace, reducing your total cost of ownership.
Multiposition boom
Adjust the 600i boom to accommodate multiple room sizes and SMART Board interactive whiteboards. At installation and setup, the boom can be configured to fit the following SMART Board models: 560, 580, 660, 680 and 685.
Theft resistant
Feel secure with your technology investment – the protection features of the 600i make it a less attractive target for thieves. The projector head, boom and base are all attached, and because the UF55 projector has no buttons, it is rendered inoperable if removed from the extended control panel. The Kensington cable lock slot and padlock loop are additional visual and physical theft deterrents.
System safeguard
Protect the system against damage. The unique folding boom ensures that even in rare cases of misuse or damage, the system can be easily repaired by replacing one inexpensive part.
Network enabled
Connect the UF55 projector to your school's IP network to send and receive commands to the Web server or SNMP client. As a networked interactive whiteboard system, the 600i has asset management features that enable you to remotely control and manage the projector.
Improved lamp life
Extend the life of your projector lamp – the UF55's bulb lasts up to a year longer than the bulb of the previous model. By providing 3,000 hours in standard mode and 4,000 hours in economy mode, the UF55 projector reduces your total cost of ownership. And because the projector is network enabled, you will receive e-mail alerts for temperature warnings or when lamp life is running low.
Warranty
Get a three-year warranty on the UF55 projector. The SMART Board interactive whiteboard has a five-year warranty upon product registration. |
