The Minicom DS 0VS50010 is a Receiver unit for the DS Vision 3000 digital signage
solution.
The DS Vision 3000 narrowcasts high-definition video and stereo-audio from a
single player, over CATx cable, to multiple plasma/LCD screens located up to 600m/2000ft
away. Combined with full serial command, the DS Vision 3000 is the ultimate solution
for controlling and delivering real-time multimedia content. This digital
signage solution is a modular system, made up of units that can be exactly molded
to your network requirements without superfluous hardware. The result is a digital
signage network streamlined in function and cost-effective on budget.
The Minicom DS Vision system features full RS-232 bidirectional communication,
which gives you the ability to remotely query screen operation time - essential
for monitoring the remaining life of your screens and a valuable precursor to measuring
advertising effectiveness. The DS system also enables power commands that turn either
the entire screen network or screen groups on/off. Screen wear and tear is thus
minimized while maximizing the life of your digital signage network.
With extended range, DS Vision 3000 gives you the freedom to set-up your LCD/plasma
screens at any desired location, without fear of compromising your media quality
and safe in the knowledge that your media player is out of sight and out of unauthorized
hands. Whether multiple-screen timetables and advertisements, or single-screen bulletins,
signs and training aids, DS Vision 3000 delivers your message, picture perfect,
every time.

- Broadcaster 8/16 port
- Line Splitter 8 port
