IP-based Signage Delivers
Cost-effective Scalability and Versatility
By John W. DeWitt
 Providers and users of digital-signage technologies are
turning to Internet protocol (IP) for network management and
distribution of content—including uncompressed HD video. IP-based
digital signage networks offer several advantages, including the ability
to easily repurpose content for online applications as well as signage,
and leveraging existing Internet infrastructure for rapidly scaling
networks at lower cost. Recently, X20 Media and Harris announced new
partnerships with NetStreams and VBrick Systems, respectively, to bring
IP-based digital-signage solutions to market. Meanwhile, PlasMedia
Productions is using the Helius IP-based signage platform in conjunction
with cellular broadband to operate a shopping-mall network in 100
locations. more>>
