DisplayLink Provides USB Display Technology for
Samsung 22-Inch LCD Monitor with Tandem 7-Inch Monitor
PALO ALTO, CALIF. - April 8, 2008 – DisplayLink announced today that its USB display technology is providing core functionality for the Samsung SyncMaster 2263DX, a 22-inch LCD monitor with an attached 7-inch tandem monitor.
DisplayLink’s USB Display Technology provides the hardware and software that connects and powers the 7-inch tandem monitor to the main monitor by a simple USB cable – without the need for additional power connections. This provides the flexibility to allow the 7-inch tandem monitor to be positioned above or on either side of the main 22-inch monitor. DisplayLink software enables users to easily switch between portrait and landscape modes.
The SyncMaster 2263DX has attracted significant attention from reviewers and users alike, and was an Innovations Award honoree at CES 2008. Its unique 7-inch tandem monitor provides extra screen space without consuming desktop space. With its compact size, the 7-inch monitor offers surprising utility, providing ample space for instant messaging, media players, Skype, calendars, or application toolbars.
“Samsung is now the world’s leading manufacturer of LCD displays for the PC market, and DisplayLink is helping them stay at the forefront of innovation with our one-of-a-kind USB display technology,” said Dennis Crespo, executive vice president of marketing and business development for DisplayLink.
