One of the new pieces of hardware unveiled by Microsoft at its Windows 10 event on Wednesday was its Surface Hub, a TV workspace with pen input. And while the company has already started promoting its functionalities, we’re just starting to learn what the device features under the hood.

Microsoft designed two Surface Hub models: a 55- and 84-inch version, both of which are supposed to enhance a team’s ability to communicate, collaborate and share their ideas. Microsoft showed off how the device works on stage, but here are some of the tech specs:

  • 55-inch display at 1080p or 84-inch at 4K
  • Displays locked at 120 HZ for no-lag writing
  • Optically bounded displays for extra clarity (as on the Surface Pro)
  • Supports up to 100 simultaneous touch points 
  • Supports up to 3 pens simultaneously
  • Powered by Intel Core CPUs
  • 2 x 1080p cameras and a mic array
  • HDMI, Miracast, NFC, Bluetooth, USB ports
  • Powered by a slightly modified version of Windows 10
