The SMART Board™ 600i interactive whiteboard system offers you greater flexibility in the classroom. It combines an award-winning SMART Board interactive whiteboard, a SMART UF65 projector and an extended control panel.
Besides offering extraordinary features at an affordable price, the 600i enables you to easily access and control your classroom technology, including the projector and other peripheral devices, right from the front of your classroom.
As a fully integrated learning system, the 600i streamlines your teaching experience by enabling you to engage students with interactive lessons while simultaneously accessing and controlling all your classroom technology.
Like all SMART Board interactive whiteboards, the 600i has a large, touch-enabled surface that allows you to write in digital ink with your finger or a pen, interact with applications and save your notes. The 600i also comes with SMART Notebook collaborative learning software , which helps you create, deliver and manage high-impact interactive lessons.
And if your classroom uses widescreen laptops and monitors, or if you just need a little more room to work, the system is available in a wide-format option.
The SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system starts up with a push of a button, so you can begin teaching right away. And as an integrated system, it enables you to easily access and control all of your classroom technology, including the SMART UF65 projector and your peripheral devices, from its extended control panel. The SMART UF65 projector features shadow reduction and a high-quality projected image, making your lessons crisp and bright. Because the projector is located directly above the interactive whiteboard, the 600i fits virtually any classroom space.
The key to the SMART Board interactive whiteboard is touch. Write, erase, move objects and control applications by touching or writing on the interactive whiteboard. You can also write with a pen, erase with your palm and move objects with your finger without having to press buttons, access on-screen menus or replace tools in the Pen Tray. Our Touch Recognition feature makes it possible.

Enjoy more room to work. The wide-format 685i3 model gives you 20% more working space than a standard interactive whiteboard - ideal for classrooms that use widescreen laptops and monitors. The 685i3 combines the SMART Board 685 interactive whiteboard with the SMART UF65w projector, which delivers a 16:10 aspect ratio and native WXGA (1,280 x 800) widescreen resolution.
Connect the UF65 projector to your school's IP network to remotely control and manage it through the web server or SNMP client. As a networked interactive whiteboard system, the 600i's asset management features enable you to control and manage the projector remotely.
Install the 600i quickly and easily with the boom and swivel mount. The SMART UF65 projector is mounted directly above the interactive whiteboard, so any classroom can accommodate the 600i without needing complicated wiring or ceiling mounting. The system's integrated elements also ensure it is easy to maintain.
Adjust the 600i boom to accommodate multiple room sizes and SMART Board interactive whiteboards. At installation and setup, the SMART UF65 projector and the wide-format SMART UF65w projector can be configured to accommodate multiple room sizes and SMART Board interactive whiteboards, including the 560, 580, 660, 680 and 685 models.

The 600i projector bulb lasts for 3,000 hours in standard mode and 5,000 hours in economy mode. And because the projector is network enabled, you will receive e-mail alerts for temperature warnings or when lamp life is running low.
Experience high levels of brightness and contrast with the UF65 projector. Its true color quality enhances the crispness of video, images and websites from every position in the room, no matter the lighting conditions.
Reduce shadows and distractions with the SMART UF65 projector. Because this boom-mounted, short-throw projector is located directly above the SMART Board interactive whiteboard, it creates fewer shadows behind the user, improving the visibility of images, videos and notes.
The SMART Board 600 series interactive whiteboard's resilient, hard-coated, polyester front sheet is secured over a robust aluminum composite backboard. The surface is tear-proof, optimized for projection, compatible with dry-erase markers and easily cleaned. With an incredibly low return merchandise authorization (RMA) rate of less than 0.01%, SMART Board interactive whiteboards may be the toughest interactive whiteboards on the market.

Feel secure with your technology investment - the protection features of the 600i make it a less attractive target for thieves. The projector head, boom and base are all attached, and because the SMART UF65 projector has no buttons, it is rendered inoperable if removed from the extended control panel. The Kensington cable lock slot and padlock loop are additional visual and physical theft deterrents.
The filter-free design of SMART's UF65 projector eliminates the need for filter cleaning or replacement.
