Today’s corporate offices are rapidly changing, and they need monitors that are ready to meet the moment. With no new normal in sight when it comes to work arrangements, businesses are doubling down on versatile tech that can serve a workforce comprising remote, in-office, and hybrid employees. With our latest ASUS videoconferencing monitors, we’re going all-in on connectivity, versatility, and convenience to keep today’s workers efficient and productive.
We’re debuting two new displays for the series: the ASUS Business Monitor BE34WCGNK and the ASUS Business Monitor BE27ACGNK. The BE27ACGNK is easy to install in just about any work environment thanks to its 27-inch screen size. It offers a 2560×1440 resolution and a 120Hz refresh rate for detailed images and smooth text scrolling. The BE34WCGNK extends out horizontally with ultrawide form factor. Checking in with a 3440×1440 resolution across a curved panel, it’s primed for excellent multitasking.
Both videoconferencing monitors offer amped-up versatility for business scenarios. They include an integrated 5.0M pixel webcam that supports Windows Hello password-free sign in for Windows 10 and 11. Tilt adjustment makes sure that employees’ faces are always in view. For convenient control during remote conferencing calls, physical hotkeys on the front of the monitor provide ready controls of vital Microsoft Teams functions. Wide-ranging connectivity options including HDMI, DisplayPort with daisy-chaining support, USB Type-C with 96W Power Delivery, RJ45 Ethernet, and USB 3.2 downstream ports allow for a full desk setup to all run through the monitor. For an on-the-go workforce, that can mean connecting a laptop to a complete PC setup just by connecting a single cable.
Since the audio quality of your voice is a key part of how you present yourself in meetings, the audio features of these videoconferencing monitors deserve special mention. The BE34WCGNK and BE27ACGNK employ advanced AI-powered microphone technology to enhance communication clarity. Artificial intelligence algorithms identify and suppress unwanted background noise, enhancing the clarity of the primary audio signal. Acoustic Echo Cancellation eliminates echoes that occur when sound from a speaker is picked up by a microphone and retransmitted, ensuring clear, echo-free communication. The De-Reverb function works to reduce or remove the reverberation from an audio signal, making audio sound drier and more direct. Far field pick up allows the microphone array to capture sound effectively from a significant distance, enabling users to speak naturally without needing to be close to the microphone. Finally, beam forming allows the microphones to create a directional “beam” that focuses on a specific sound source while attenuating sounds coming from other directions.
All-in-one PCs remain a popular choice in the business world, but increasingly businesses are turning the combination of a videoconferencing monitor and a mini-PC. This arrangement maintains the space-saving appeal of an AIO PC while allowing for upgrades and servicing of each component separately. To make this arrangement easy, these new ASUS business monitors include VESA 100mm x 100mm wall mount support. Standard ASUS NUC mini-PCs will mount easily here with the ASUS MKT03 mini-PC mounting kit. Support for ASUS Power Sync allows for simultaneous power control of both the monitor and the NUC with one button press.
The ASUS Business Monitor BE34WCGNK and BE27ACGNK are as excellent for employee health as they are for sustainability. ASUS EyeCare+ technology, including TÜV certified low blue light and flicker-free operation, allows for comfortable use over a full workday. Color Augmentation mode helps users with color-vision deficiency to differentiate colors, and optional Rest Reminder helps users give their eyes timely breaks. Both models operate at a highly efficient level, as attested by their EPEAT 2.0 Gold certifications. Additionally, we’re designing them to meet EPEAT Climate+ requirements, a certification that allows businesses to identify hardware that meets industry best practices around decarbonization.
