SAMSUNG 43" 43HE694 FHD, DVB-T2/C

Meet Demand for IP-Supported Services at Low Cost
The HE694 has a simple, low-cost IP migration solution for hotels that currently have coaxial infrastructure. For the first time since initial demand for internet connectivity among hotel guests, IP infrastructure is becoming important in order for hotels to provide top-line entertainment and communication room services to its guests. Besides supporting WiFi, one of the most-demanded guest services today, an IP network also enables cable channels in HD, unified communication and integrated room controls. Due to consumer expectation of these services, the migration to an IP infrastructure that supports the technologies is necessary in order to stay competitive. Fortunately, the HE694 eliminates the high cost burden of infrastructure reconstruction, presenting an IP-over-coax solution that supports upgraded content and services for guests.

Deliver IPTV Services through Existing Coax Infrastructures
Featuring IP-over-coax functionality, Samsung’s HE694 display is an exceptional display alternative for hotels who wish to implement IPTV but lack the resources to rebuild their infrastructures. As an All-IP standalone display, Samsung’s HE694 uses a CMTS server to convert IP signals to coax signals and transmit them through the existing coaxial cable. Through this transformation, hotels can empower guest rooms with high-quality IPTV without a significant equipment investment. Additionally, hotel operators can add IPTV capabilities sequentially and avoid having to close off certain rooms or floors while the systems are upgraded. Two features, the DOCSIS 3.0 cable modem and the CMTS server enable enhanced communication and content delivery. The CMTS server can deliver Satellite Signal, Internet Signal and Hotel SW Sever into the guest room. The DOCSIS cable modem is an embedded hospitality display, which enables hotels to provide interactive content and content services.

Maximize Guest Access to Entertainment and Information
Samsung’s LYNK REACH 4.0 solution gives hotel managers access to a mix of IP (IPTV) and RF channels, creating a hybrid channel map capable of offering guests more entertainment and information options than available on standard hospitality displays. Through this enhanced access, hotel managers easily can compose and activate a channel bank list to meet unique guest needs. LYNK REACH 4.0’s extensive channel bank additionally allows hotels to offer specialized premium paid content available to applicable guests, creating a potentially profitable revenue source while offering guests more customized viewing options.

Offer Personalized Service from Check-in through Checkout
Samsung’s LYNK REACH 4.0 platform ensures that guests receive personalized attention and convenient access to on-site amenities and services throughout the duration of their stay.
• At check-in: The LYNK REACH 4.0 server uses the hotel’s proprietary management server (PMS) to evaluate guests’ unique information and greet them with personalized welcome messages.
• During guest stay: Hotel managers can use data stored within the LYNK REACH 4.0 server to send guests personalized messages relevant to their stay, ranging from restaurant reservation portals to timing for other on-site services.
• Express checkout: LYNK REACH 4.0 highlights and organizes all guest charges within a single screen, enabling a faster guest checkout process that does not require a trip to the lobby.

Expand Personal Music Streaming Capabilities and Content Viewing Arenas through Bluetooth Connectivity
Through embedded Bluetooth connectivity, Samsung’s HE694 displays transform into an all-in-one entertainment center that delivers a differentiated in-room experience resembling what guests would expect at home. The displays’ integrated Software Access Point (Soft AP) functionality provides 40Mbps of wireless bandwidth, supporting up to four mobile devices within a two-meter range. Once connected with guests’ mobile devices, the HE694 display becomes an audio player complete with an easy-to-navigate screen and powerful speakers giving guests quick access to play their favorite songs and sounds. The HE694’s screen mirroring and Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) capabilities ensure that mobile content configures smoothly to the display without distortion or restriction. Conversely, Smart View TV-to-mobile transferability enables guests to clearly view TV content on their mobile devices. The HE694’s wireless design offers guests greater content interaction flexibility without reducing picture quality or access parameters, giving hotels an extra edge.

Keep Guests Connected at Reduced Maintenance
Through a range of innovative, low-cost features, the HE690 and HE590 displays offer guests more avenues to achieve fully-functional connectivity – for both work and entertainment needs – with less hassle required. Guests can use an integrated Ethernet bridge to create an in-room work station, complete with a VoIP phone access point and connectivity to IP devices for continued content access. After a long day, guests can access online TV streaming platforms through the displays to ensure they don’t miss their favorite program while on the road. The HE690 and HE590 additionally expand in-room entertainment options through Bluetooth connectivity, which allows guests to stream music from their personal devices through the displays’ speakers. This seamless streaming provides a cost-efficient alternative to frequently stolen or broken docking stations, and helps hotels further transform rooms into versatile entertainment hubs.

Extend Content Viewing Arenas through Wireless Device-to-Display Connectivity
Samsung hospitality displays elevate the guest experience by serving as an in-room, multi-device entertainment hub equipped with a host of customized viewing features. The displays’ integrated Software Access Point (Soft AP) functionality provides secure private wireless connections between TV and up to 4 mobile devices in room. Once connected, guests can transfer personal content, including music, movies and photos, from their mobile devices for viewing on the larger display screen with DLNA. They can also transfer the screen of a mobile device onto the TV with Screen Mirroring without restriction of content type. When Samsung Smart View application is used in the mobile device, guests can transfer their multimedia content to TV more easily. DLNA, Screen Mirroring and Smart View capabilities ensure that mobile content configures smoothly to the display without distortion or restriction.

Enjoy More Efficient Installation through Improved Plug-and-Play Capabilities
In a busy hospitality environment, time spent on display installation and maintenance is time that could otherwise be devoted to more critical growth-related activities. Through advanced plug-and-play settings, hotel managers can activate hundreds of in-room displays with minimal effort required. Operations teams simply have to navigate three basic launch settings to synchronize multiple displays and servers while also defining connectivity and language needs:
• Basic Setup: A user-friendly interface lets hospitality managers define the language, picture and tuning, and clock settings.
• Cloning Mode: To further enhance multi-display control, hotel managers can replicate communication and content delivery functionalities across all on-site displays. Once the cloning process is complete, users can activate their displays without requiring any further installations or compatibility confirmation.
• Factory Mode: Hotel managers additionally can customize advanced display operations, such as audio parameters and connectivity settings, through an easy-to-access factory mode portal.
The plug-and-play functionalities also enable certain non-hospitality environments to enjoy the same content and system management benefits. A unique Commercial Mode setting accommodates the specialized requirements of commercial users, such as government and education entities, without compromising performance.

Treat guests with a customized, cost-efficient Home Menu
Deliver a wide array of content to guests with an enhanced Home Menu that does not require the additional purchase of a solution or installation of a network infrastructure. New enhanced features enable hotels to welcome guests with a brief video introduction along with the hotel logo before offering live TV. This way, hotels can enhance their brand without the need of an additional solution. Guests can conveniently view resources such as the time, date and hotel information, and access frequently used TV features in user mode. The customizable Home Menu reduces the cost burden for hotels that lack the budget for an additional solution while simplifying Home Menu creation with a solution-embedded Hospitality TV.

Protect content with advanced DRM technology
