SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system

SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system

The SMART Board® 600i interactive whiteboard system combines an award-winning SMART Board interactive whiteboard, an extended control panel and your choice of a short- or ultra-short-throw projector. This integrated system adds flexibility and efficiency to the classroom by helping you easily access and control all multimedia devices and the projector from the front of the interactive whiteboard. All projectors are backed by our SMART Projector Care Plus program.


More freedom in 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.

Focus on teaching

The SMART Board 600i interactive whiteboard system starts up with a push of a button, so you can begin teaching with it right away. The integrated system also makes it easy to access and control all of your classroom technology, including the SMART UF75 or SMART UF65 projector, from the extended control panel. The UF75 and UF65 projectors are 3D-ready and display high-definition video. The UF75 also has an HDMI input. Both projectors deliver high-quality projected images, reduced shadows and energy efficiency. And because these projectors mount directly above the interactive whiteboard, the system fits into virtually any classroom.

Enable hands-on learning

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.

Save and share your work

With SMART Notebook software, which is included with all SMART Board interactive whiteboards, you can capture all your notes, screenshots, images and videos to a single file that can be opened in both Windows and Mac operating systems. Notes and multimedia can be saved as objects that can be manipulated, reorganized and reused. You can also save digital notes directly into several software applications including Microsoft Windows versions of PowerPoint, Word and Excel, as well as Adobe Acrobat and AutoCAD software. SMART Notebook software even enables you to e-mail saved files to students or colleagues at any time during or after your lesson. And you can upload your favorite SMART Notebook lessons to the SMART Exchange website, so your colleagues can find them quickly and easily using our custom search engine.

Manage the system effortlessly

The 600i is designed to make installation, maintenance and security effortless. The system's durable surface, collapsible multiposition boom and network-enabled SMART UF65 projector ensure that your investment is reliable and protected. And SMART offers comprehensive help, training opportunities and a solid warranty, so you'll always have dependable support for your 600i.


Touch system

Write or perform mouse functions by touching the board with a pen or your finger, and erase using the eraser tool – no proprietary tools are required.

Touch Recognition
Touch the board with a pen or your finger to write or perform mouse functions. Erase using the eraser tool or the palm of your hand. SMART’s Touch Recognition feature enables the board to switch between modes automatically – no special tools or actions required.
Pen Tray
Pick up a pen or the eraser, and the Pen Tray automatically detects which tool you’ve selected. Buttons on the Pen Tray activate the On-Screen Keyboard, right-click and help functions.
Digital ink

Simply pick up a pen to write in digital ink. You can even use your finger to write. No special tools are required, and you don’t have to launch any software. Just walk up to the interactive whiteboard and start writing.

SMART Notebook software included
SMART Board interactive whiteboard systems come with SMART Notebook collaborative learning software, which sets the standard for creating, delivering and managing interactive lessons within a single application. It puts all your instructional materials at your fingertips, and allows you to save any notes or content you write during the lesson to share with students later on. A powerful and easy-to-use application, SMART Notebook software enables you to readily deliver interactive lessons that help keep your students engaged and interested.
Save function

Capture your work to SMART Notebook software as a screen shot that you can edit, or save your notes directly into several software applications, including Microsoft Windows versions of PowerPoint, Word and Excel, Adobe Acrobat and AutoCAD software.

Quick start

With the 600i, your computer, projector and SMART Board interactive whiteboard are all connected, so you can turn the entire system on and off quickly with the push of a single button.

Front-of-room centralized control

Switch between all your audiovisual devices directly from the extended control panel. The panel provides centralized control of your classroom technology, including DVD players, digital cameras, document cameras and VCRs. You can move from a website to a video documentary to a review question, quickly and seamlessly. The extended control panel also has a dual-USB port that enables you to connect two computers to the SMART Board interactive whiteboard and easily switch between them as required.

Widescreen option

Enjoy more room to work. The wide-format 685i4 model gives you 20% more working space than a standard interactive whiteboard – ideal for classrooms that use widescreen laptops and monitors. The 685i4 combines the SMART Board 685 interactive whiteboard with the SMART UF65w projector, which delivers a 16:10 aspect ratio and native WXGA (1280 x 800) widescreen resolution.

Network-enabled projector

Connect the projector to your school's 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.

Simple installation

Install the 600i quickly and easily in any classroom. The projector mounts directly above the interactive whiteboard, with no complicated wiring or ceiling mounting required. The system's integrated components also ensure it is easy to maintain.

Multiposition boom

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.

Damage resistant

Use the system with confidence – the unique collapsible boom ensures that even in rare cases of misuse or damage, the system can be easily repaired by replacing one inexpensive part.

Improved lamp life

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 can receive e-mail alerts for temperature warnings or when lamp life is running low.

Low power consumption

Conserve energy with the SMART UF65 projector, which uses less than one watt of electricity in standby mode. It is also compliant with EuP standards.

3D-ready

Demonstrate complex spatial concepts using third-party 3D content. SMART UF65 and UF75 projectors are 3D ready, accurately displaying 3D content to students wearing 3D glasses.

Image quality

Experience high levels of brightness and contrast with the UF75 and UF65 projectors. The UF65 delivers 2,000 lumens and a 2,000:1 contrast ratio at XGA (1040 x 768) resolution. The UF75 delivers 2,500 lumens and a 2,900:1 contrast ratio at XGA (1040 x 768) resolution. Their true-color quality enhances the crispness of video, images and websites from every position in the room, no matter the lighting conditions.

Shadow reduction

Reduce shadows and distractions with the ultra-short-throw SMART UF75 or short-throw SMART UF65 projector. Because these projectors mount directly above the SMART Board interactive whiteboard, they create fewer shadows behind the user, improving the visibility of images, videos and notes.

Durable surface

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, SMART Board interactive whiteboards may be the toughest interactive whiteboards on the market. All SMART Board interactive whiteboards are rigorously tested, designed and produced in an ISO 9001 certified facility.

Theft resistant

Feel secure with your technology investment – the protection features of the 600i make it a less attractive target for thieves. The projector head and base are attached, and because the 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.

Filter free

Both projector options offer a filter-free design, which eliminates the need for filter cleaning or replacement and reduces overall maintenance.

Choices to suit students
Add the SMART Audio classroom amplification system or USB speakers to turn the 600i into a complete multimedia center. You can also add the height-adjustable wall mount, enabling you to easily lower the interactive whiteboard for shorter students or raise it higher for teachers and taller students.
