Secure Digital Signage Installation
By utilizing built-in secure Wi-Fi connectivity, you can securely integrate the digital signage into your existing Wi-Fi infrastructure or build Wi-Fi infrastructure dedicated to digital signage.
Up to nine ST-700s synchronize the content playback to enable the tiled digital signage. Thanks to the generous connectivity models, including Wi-Fi connection, Ethernet daisy-chaining, or tree topology over Ethernet, the ST-700 gives you a couple of options for installation. It does not require an external clock source for synchronization. The timing of each player is synchronized over the network.
The ST-700 can enable interactive digital signage through the USB connection with a touch display/panel. As it supports HTML5 content, websites can be displayed on digital signage, and visitors can browse necessary information through the touch display.
