Designed for the contemporary hotel that prioritizes premium functionality and operational efficiency, Samsung HD690 Series SMART Hospitality Displays deliver a superior TV experience with an array of convenient, embedded management features and guest-pleasing functionality. IT managers can remotely control the TV and manage content in each room in one simple step with IP-based LYNK SINC 3.0, using a hotel’s existing IP infrastructure. These capabilities enable hotel staff members to make changes without having to visit each hotel room, which eliminates high maintenance costs and the need for the hotel to purchase an additional STB. Recently updated to include value-added features such as upgraded IP-based LYNK SINC and a convenient Bluetooth music player, HD690 Series displays combine premier entertainment with ultimate efficiency.

With LYNK SINC 3.0, properties can delight guests with the same interactive entertainment they experience with their personal devices on in-room displays. And using customized widgets, hotel managers can design the specific content they need to enhance the guest experience. Also, hotels can provide up-to-date flight information* so guests can coordinate checkout times with flight departures and send personalized, real-time messages.

Samsung Smart Hub provides a gateway to a variety of web-based apps and allows guests to conveniently access social networking sites (SNS) through the hotel's IP network for enhanced TV content based on their individual needs. Smart Hub also enables guests to use Internet applications the same way they use them on other devices, providing an enjoyable "home-away-from-home" experience.

Deliver a wide array of content to guests with an enhanced Home Menu that requires no network infrastructure and serves as a cost-effective solution. New enhanced features enable hotels to display their logos, play video and images along with live TV, which was previously the sole functionality. Properties can easily apply enhanced features without a network by way of simple USB cloning in factory mode. 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 with consumer TVs that would otherwise have to adopt solution-embedded Hospitality TVs.

Samsung LYNK DRM technology provides a safe and cost-effective alternative to traditional hardware-based content protection systems. The solution allows encrypted live channel and VoD content to pass securely and display on hotel TVs. A software-only implementation, LYNK DRM technology reduces the need for additional equipment and provides quicker recovery for Conditional Access System (CAS) problems. To help ensure system reliability, coverage extends to the enlargement of head-end equipment for cable operators.
