Protect your confidential information without sacrificing productivity with the Kensington FP270W9 Privacy Screen. Specially designed for 27" widescreen monitors in a 16:9 format, this privacy filter provides a discreet viewing experience that helps guard sensitive data from prying eyes in busy offices, libraries, or shared study spaces. The FP270W9 blends seamlessly with your existing display setup, delivering privacy and comfort for long work sessions, while preserving the clarity you rely on for emails, spreadsheets, and design work. Whether you’re reviewing financial documents, patient records, or private project notes, this privacy screen is a reliable guardian for your screen real estate.

• Enhanced privacy for public or shared spaces: The FP270W9 restricts side viewing so that only someone directly in front of the screen can read the content. This helps prevent shoulder surfing during meetings, open desks, or classrooms, giving you peace of mind when handling sensitive information. It’s especially valuable for finance teams, healthcare professionals, and students who frequently work around others.
• Minimal impact on display quality: While privacy screens naturally partially darken a bit when viewed from the sides, the FP270W9 is engineered to preserve text legibility and color accuracy from head-on viewing. You’ll notice crisp text, sharp lines, and reliable color rendering for documents, dashboards, and multimedia, with privacy protection integrated into every pixel.
• Glare and reflection reduction for comfortable viewing: The privacy filter helps reduce glare and reflections in bright offices, conference rooms, or study spaces. This means less eye strain during long sessions and improved readability when working under overhead lighting or sunlight streaming through windows.
• Easy, tool-free installation and removal: Designed for everyday use, the FP270W9 installs with a simple, tool-free setup that won’t interfere with your monitor stand or existing accessories. When you need to share your screen in a collaborative setting, you can quickly remove the filter and restore full visibility without leaving residue or compromising screen integrity.
• Durable, lightweight design built for daily use: The FP270W9 is crafted to withstand frequent handling, travel, and office life. Its slim profile adds minimal bulk, while the protective surface resists scratches and maintains clarity over time, so your privacy remains intact as you move between workspaces.
