The importance of monitors at the workplace.

Around a half of all German employees sit five days in front of their monitors five days a week, spending more time in front of their screens than anything else. Monitors with poor image quality and even worse ergonomics can have a detrimental effect on employee health in the long run, which is why you need to understand the importance of monitors in the workplace before making a purchase. The right monitor is critical for workplace efficiency. A curved model or one with a screen diagonal of 55.9 cm (22") or 61 cm (24") gives you plenty of space to use multiple apps at once while an integrated blue light filter can considerably relieve eye strain by reducing harmful shortwave blue light emitted from the monitor which also reduces the impact on circadian rhythms.

Monitor FAQs – Tech specs.

As mentioned, monitors are at the very heart of our world of work. With that in mind, there are multiple factors to take into consideration when choosing a business monitor. The one that’s best for you and your needs will depend on how you’re going to use it, so resolution and colour accuracy are vital in the design industry, but won’t play as big a role in the financial sector. In commercial businesses and logistics, you’ll need robust devices whereas office monitors will need to score highly when it comes to ergonomics. The following is an overview of the most important characteristics of business monitors along with tips on which devices are best suited for which application area. 

 

Resolution and screen size.

The resolution and, therefore, the sharpness of the image, are determined by the number of pixels on the screen. Standard resolutions are Full HD (1920 x 1080), Quad HD (2560 x 1440) and Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 or 4K). The higher the resolution, the sharper texts and pictures appear and the larger your screen is, the more advantageous it is to have a higher resolution. The resolution you choose will greatly depend on the work you’ll be doing on the monitor. For example, Full HD is plenty for general office-based work while UHD and/or 8K monitors are better suited for designing.

The wonderful world of display technologies. 

The display technology you go with will depend on your specific needs and applications. LCD and LED monitors are more than up to the task of handling office and multimedia apps, while OLED monitors deliver enhanced visual quality and touch screens extra user comfort. 

 

Technology	Definition	How it works	Areas of application
LCD	Liquid Crystal Display	Uses liquid crystal molecules to allow different levels of light to pass through.	Office monitors

Curved monitors – More than aesthetics.

Curved monitors represent a significant step in monitor technology and offer a whole host of benefits making them ever-popular in graphic design, architecture and financial services. The gentle curve of the screen allows for a more immersive user experience that reduces fatigue and makes it easier to focus on the details as maintaining a consistent distance to all pixels ensures information is much clearer.

Height and tilt adjustability for perfect ergonomics.

An ergonomic workplace is indispensable when it comes to the health and well-being of your staff. Height and tilt-adjustable monitors allow users to adjust their monitors to the perfect angle for them, which is essential in this age of shared desks with multiple people using one workplace. A flexibly adjustable office monitor can foster a healthy posture and is perfect for use on sit/stand desks.

Ports – Connect your workflows.

A monitor’s connectivity options play a key role in seamless integration at the workplace. These days, the most common interfaces are HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface), USB-C and VGA (Video Graphics Array). The best monitors will have a good mix of all of these to ensure compatibility with various devices and the right ports will depend on what you want to connect to your monitor. We’re happy to help.

 

Interface	Description	To connect with
HDMI	Transmits high-quality audio and video.	PCs, laptops, DVD players
DisplayPort	Supports higher bandwidths and multi-monitor setups.	Workstations
USB-C	Universal interface for data transfers, video output and power supply.	Modern laptops, tablets, smartphones
VGA	Older interface for video transfers. Increasingly being phased out.	Older devices, conferencing technology
DVI	Transmits digital video and can also support analogue connections.	Older computers

Power consumption – Efficiency and sustainability.

A monitor’s energy consumption not only affects TCO, but also eco-friendliness and sustainability. Modern monitors come with a host of energy-saving features that can help reduce power consumption, such as automatic power off after a defined period of inactivity, brightness sensors and eco modes all of which can optimise power consumption and protect resources. In bigger offices where there are a large number of monitors in use, choosing energy-efficient models can minimise a company’s carbon footprint and help achieve long-term savings. A monitor’s energy efficiency classification is clearly displayed on labels on a scale from A (or A+++ / A++ (green)) to G (red). The size of the monitor doesn’t necessarily impact the amount of power it needs. 

 

Monitors for special application areas.

Not every business monitor is suitable for office use. Demands on workplace displays change depending on the industry, so while touch screens in production and logistics settings need to be robust, medical devices have to be hygienic as well. On the other hand, connectivity is a top priority when it comes to conferencing monitors and surveillance monitors need to be designed for 24×7 operation. Here is an overview of the most common monitor uses:

Flexible working – Dual monitor setups.

Laptops are growing in popularity for business use and are fundamental for the home office and Modern Workplace. Their portability does, however, have some disadvantages as they have a much smaller screen than desktops, which is why its standard to connect one or two monitors to a laptop when working at a desk.

With the right hardware, such as a docking station, you can expand your laptop display and seamlessly switch between screens giving you more real estate for applications, improving multi-tasking capabilities and giving you a better overview of your environment. No matter if you’re working on a big project, comparing data or trying to keep an eye on multiple things at once, connecting two monitors to your laptop can considerably improve your working life. 

Medical monitors – Screens for the most demanding users.

In doctor’s surgeries and hospitals, precise displays and reliable connectivity are essential. Medical monitors specifically designed for medical imaging are key when in diagnostics and treatment, while surgical monitors give doctors a clear view during operations to optimise precision and safety. But it’s not just visual quality that’s important. Hygiene is imperative. Medical monitors must meet the highest hygiene standards to ensure a safe working environment. 

Portable monitors – On-the-go flexibility.

The modern world of work demands flexibility and mobility, and portable monitors are an innovative solution that allow you to take your work with you everywhere. These compact displays are lightweight, thin and are easy to pack away in a bag while simple connectivity mean you can connect them to a laptop or tablet in a snap to expand your screen and work more productively wherever you are.

Conferencing monitors – Communications made easy.

We need to communicate and collaborate effectively in our modern networked world and conferencing monitors offer the perfect platform for enhanced meetings and presentations, High-resolution screens and crystal-clear sound ensure a lively and immersive conferencing experience, while integrated cameras and microphones ensure seamless video conferences and interactive features facilitate project collaboration. 

Industrial displays – Reliability for demanding environments.

In industrial environments where robustness and reliability are a must, industrial displays are a worthwhile investment. These rugged monitors have been specially designed to fulfil the requirements of factories and production sites to deliver not only clear visuals, but also resilient constructions that withstand vibrations, dust and humidity.
 One example is machine-mounted terminals that are common in industrial settings and act as a direct interface with machinery. We at Bechtle have a range of industrial displays designed to deliver reliable performance in tough environments. 

Surveillance screens – 24×7 monitoring.

In security-critical environments like monitoring centres, public transportation and factories, you need clear and reliable visual data. Surveillance screens help ensure round-the-clock security and motoring, delivering razor-sharp images 24×7 as well as other features such as split screen displays and signal monitoring so you can keep an eye on all your cameras and sensors, when you need to make a decision fast, these monitors’ picture quality and reliability are precisely what you need.

Room management displays – Modern office resource planning.

We work in a very dynamic world and the efficient use of resources is at the top of the agenda. Room management displays are a smart solution for optimally managing meeting rooms, desks and resources showing real-time occupancy, allowing booking and providing a user-friendly platform for resource planning. Room management displays don’t only save you time, but are also easy on resources as they support better room utilisation.
