(I-Newswire) February 23, 2010 - Linden, NJ USA (February 22nd, 2010) - Minicom Digital Signage (http://www.minicomdigitalsignage.com/index.htm?PR_DSE3), the leader in “last mile” player-to-screen connectivity platforms for the Digital Signage marketplace, and AOpen America (http://usa.aopen.com/) are pleased to announce a partnership in the field of Digital Signage Players using video distribution and extension over CAT5 cable.
In the past months successful experiments have taken place to combine Minicom Digital Signage’s DS Vision® 3000 (http://www.minicomdigitalsignage.com/av_ds3000.htm?PR_DSE3) product with AOpen America’s Digital Engine and Media Servers. The distribution of high definition signals over long distances between player and display can be difficult. Sometimes, while it may seem more economical to place a small form factor player behind a screen, the placing of players in accessible, environmentally controlled and secure environments will actually save you money over the life of your network.
”AOpen America is thrilled to find a partner in Minicom Digital Signage who provides a plug and play solution to transfer high quality HD signals more than 200 meters using simple CAT5 cable. This way, our players can be located in a controlled room in our DS Engine Station, where they are accessible, secured and protected.” says Dale Tsai, President at AOpen America.
The technology will demonstrated during the upcoming Digital Signage Expo in Las Vegas. In the demo setup AOpen’s Digital Engine will be connected through Minicom Digital Signage’s DS Vision 3000 to two Panasonic Plasma screens.
DSE is the leading international forum for the Digital Signage industry. It combines a highly respected and peer reviewed conference, an exhibition that demonstrates state of the art Digital Signage technology and unrivalled networking opportunities. Visitors can expect to learn about the developments which are shaping the industry, interact with the latest technology, experience world first demonstrations and do business in a professional and supportive environment. The 2010 Show will be held from February 23rd – 25th in the Las Vegas, Nevada.
