Philips Monitors extends its business line-up with new USB-C docking and webcam models

Philips Monitors is strengthening its B-line business monitor portfolio with a wave of new models that bringintegrated webcams with Windows Hello, enhanced USB-C docking and multi-monitor capabilities to desks of every size. The latest additions span 24″ and 27″ screen sizes, Full HD and Quad HD resolutions, and include both full-featured USB-C docking displays and purpose-built secondary monitors for daisy-chain setups.

The Philips 27B2U3601H brings video conferencing to the desktop with its built-in 5MP webcam.

Integrated webcam with Windows Hello across the range
A central theme of the new line-up is the integrated 5.0-megapixel pop-up webcam with built-in microphone, now available across multiple screen sizes and connectivity tiers. All webcam-equipped models are Windows Hello compatible, enabling secure facial recognition login directly from the monitor. The webcam features an adjustable tilt of ±30°, allowing the camera angle to be fine-tuned to the preferred seating position.

The new webcam models include:

  • Philips 24B2U4301H – 24″ Full HD, USB-C docking with up to 100W power delivery (4000 series)
  • Philips 27B2U4601H – 27″ Quad HD, USB-C docking with up to 100W power delivery (4000 series)
  • Philips 24B2U3301H – 24″ Full HD, USB-C docking with up to 90W power delivery (3000 series)
  • Philips 27B2U3601H – 27″ Quad HD, USB-C docking with up to 90W power delivery (3000 series)

These join the previously launched Philips 32B2U3601H, a 32″ Quad HD USB-C docking display also with integrated webcam and Windows Hello support.

New 24″ Quad HD USB-C docking model
Alongside the webcam models, the new Philips 24B2U3601 brings Quad HD (2560 x 1440) resolution to a compact 24″ (23.8″) form factorwith a pixel density of 123 PPI, delivering particularly crisp text and fine detail. With USB-C docking at up to 90W power delivery, a built-in RJ45 Ethernet port, a USB 3.2 hub and a DisplayPort output for daisy-chaining, it offers the same single-cable connectivity platform as its larger siblings, making it well suited for space-constrained desks and multi-monitor arrangements.

USB-C docking: single-cable simplicity
The USB-C docking models in the line-up allow a laptop to be charged whilst connected to the display as well as linking to peripherals through a single cable. A built-in RJ45 Ethernet port routes a secure network connection to the connected device, while a USB 3.2 hub with downstream ports enables fast data transfer. Additional video inputs include DisplayPort and HDMI for flexible source connectivity.

The new 4000 series models (24B2U4301H and 27B2U4601H) raise the bar further with USB-C power delivery of up to 100 W, noise-cancelling microphone technology and support for PXE boot, MAC address pass-through and Wake-on-LAN via the RJ45 port, features that are particularly relevant for managed IT environments. These models also introduce PowerSensor and LightSensor for automated energy savings and feature a refreshed charcoal and silver design.

Multi-monitor setups and Smart Link Sync
Every USB-C docking model in the line-up features a DisplayPort output for daisy-chaining, making it straightforward to set up multi-monitor workstations without additional graphics outputs from the host device. Smart Link Sync automatically aligns brightness and colour settings across daisy-chained displays via the OSD, ensuring a consistent visual experience.

Suggested daisy-chain combinations include:

  • Philips 24B2U3301H with Philips 24B2N3200J
  • Philips 24B2U3301 with Philips 24B2N3200J or 24B2N3200JH
  • Philips 24B2U4301H with Philips 24B2N4200
