Philips’ latest ultrawide boasts 5K resolution and Thunderbolt 4 docking

Philips will soon launch a new business monitor on the market – the 40B1U6903CH. This monitor offers a range of features that make it an excellent choice for professionals seeking fast data transfers and high-quality visuals.

The 40B1U6903CH's standout feature is its Thunderbolt 4 docking solution, which allows users to transfer data at a rapid speed of 40 Gbps with bidirectional bandwidth. The ports are compatible with previous Thunderbolt cable connections, USB, and DisplayPort, meaning you can connect a wide variety of devices to the monitor. With this technology, professionals can benefit from fast data transfers, a speedy Ethernet connection (1 Gbps), and the ability to deliver 90W of power to connected devices, so you can charge up your portables, like a laptop, smartphone or tablet.

Another noteworthy feature is its built-in 5MP webcam optimised for video conferencing. The monitor also includes a noise-cancelling microphone, perfect for reducing unwanted background noise during a call. The 5MP webcam is certified with Windows Hello, allowing users to log in to their Windows accounts quickly and securely using advanced facial recognition sensors. The 40B1U6903CH is certified as TÜV Rheinland Eyesafe RPF 50, which means it has a built-in blue light filter to reduce potential eye strain caused by long exposure to blue light. Additionally, the monitor boasts a peak luminance of 400nits, 5120×2160 resolution, and 75Hz refresh rate, and is certified with VESA DisplayHDR 400.

The 40-inch monitor is designed with user comfort in mind. It features an earphone hook and Compact Ergo Base that allows for tilt and swivel adjustments. Furthermore, it packs a MultiClient Integrated KVM switch, allowing you to control two systems from a single keyboard and mouse set. Additionally, the PowerSensor feature helps reduce energy costs by automatically adjusting the screen's brightness when the monitor is not in use, resulting in potential energy savings of up to 80%. The Philips 40B1U6903CH business monitor will be available for purchase starting this month with a price tag of £1499.99.
