Product information

Features
Built-in Speakers Generally the speakers inbuilt in monitors are very basic with only a couple of watts per channel, so they're not something you'd want to listen to high quality CDs or DVDs on, but could prove handy if you just want to listen to streamed radio over the internet and don't have any other speakers set up with your computer.	No
Energy Consumption	60 Watt
Miscellaneous	USB
Appearence
Color A white or grey monitor will be less straining to your eyes than a black one. This is also the reason why black monitors only bear the TCO 95 marking even though their white cousins are awarded TCO 99.	15798
Display
Monitor Type	PC Monitor
Screen type The most common types of screen today are picture tubes. However, flat screens are becoming increasingly popular. The advantage of a flat screen is that it takes less room on the desk, transmits less radiation and is energy-saving.	Flat-panel (TFT)
Screen size The size of the screen indicates the picture surface area. Screen size is measured diagonally from corner to corner.	20 inch
Widescreen	Yes
Technology	Active matrix color TFT
Resolution
Dot pitch This is the distance between two dots of the same colour. This is generally measured diagonally, but for aperture grille monitors it is sometimes measured horizontally.	0.26 mm
Maximum resolution Indicates the maximum resolution the screen can display. The resolution is stated in pixels.	1680x1050
Bandwidth
Horizontal frequency The speed that a monitor draws a single scan line, called the "horizontal frequency," is measured in kilohertz (kHz). The process repeats, painting line after line, until the screen is filled.	15798 kHz
Vertical frequency The speed that a monitor draws an entire screen, called the "vertical refresh rate" or "frequency," is measured in hertz (Hz).	15798 Hz
TFT specifications
Color depth	16.7 million
Pixel response time (rise+fall) Pixel response time is as important when choosing a LCD monitor what refresh rate is for CRTs. The response time is the time, which a TFT cell requires to switch on and switch off. For standard office applications a response time of 70 ms (milliseconds) is sufficient, but for multimedia values under 30 ms are required.	14 total, ms
Contrast Contrast is measured as the ratio between the light intensity of the brightest and the darkest point of an image. High contrast values improve readability and ergonomics.	350:01:00
Brightness Brightness is the emitted luminous power over a specified area. Brightness is another point, on which LCD monitors are superior to CRT devices. Traditional monitors create approximately 80 to 100 cd/m² (candela per meter square). For LCDs, values below 200 cm/m² are not acceptable.	230 (cd/m2)
Horizontal viewing angle The viewing angle is the angle from the centre of the image where you can still see the image. Ergonomic requirements are at least 120 degrees horizontally.	170 degrees
Vertical viewing angle The viewing angle is the angle from the centre of the image where you can still see the image. Ergonomic requirements are at least 90 degrees vertically.	170 degrees
Connections
Video connections The standard analogue connector is called D-sub (HD-15). There are also different digital connectors, DVI-I and DVI-D. DVII can be used for both analogue and digital signals, while DVI-D is digital only with a higher data transfer rate.	Apple Display Connector
