Samsung Electronics America has announced the Samsung 940UX monitor, the first 19-inch flat-panel USB connected LCD monitor, claimed the company. The monitor supports UbiSync technology that allows multiple screens to connect via USB, rather than VGA, without the need for a graphics card or any special video hardware.
Each 940UX features an onboard video card and embedded software driver allowing for automatic installation on any Windows XP PC, eliminating inconveniences such as purchasing additional graphic cards and downloading separate drivers, pointed out the company. The monitor is suitable for users who need to add a second or third monitor to a notebook or PC, particularly PCs that lack space for an extra graphics card.
Users can add up to six 940UX monitors on one PC, providing up to 114-inches of desktop space increasing productivity by giving users the ability to have multiple windows open across multiple displays. For additional flexibility, the 940UX also features the traditional VGA (15-pin D-sub) and DVI connections.
The 940UX is priced at US$379 manufacturer's suggested retail price (MSRP). The monitor is currently available at a variety of retail outlets and through Samsung resellers and distribution channels.
