Minicom Displaying Award Winning Distribution System at the Digital Signage Show

Zurich, Switzerland (April 28th, 2009) – Minicom Digital Signage, the leader in “last mile” player-to-screen connectivity platforms for the Digital Signage marketplace, will be displaying its award winning DS Vision® 3000 distribution system together with Rhombus Systems, a leading logistic project/process management company at booth number 920 at The Digital Signage Show taking place May 6-7, 2009 in Las Vegas, USA.

The leading solution in real-time multimedia delivery, the winning DS Vision® 3000 system distributes high-definition video, stereo-audio and serial signals from a single player, over CATx cable, to multiple plasma/LCD screens located up to 600m/2000ft away. DS Vision® packs a 3-in-1 punch – audio and video broadcasting and serial management channels all in one box. Broadcasting is performed in high definition video at 1080p, 1920x1440@60Hz and a DDC protocol optimizes player-screen interaction for the best visual experience. The only system on the market to include fully bidirectional RS-232 communication, DS Vision® 3000 enables you to not only send a command but also query the screen and get a response. Instead of tediously walking around to see which screens are running, see which screens are powered up and remotely turn screens on/off all from your own console. Placing players safely in back rooms becomes much more cost effective when using Minicom’s extenders.

The DS Vision® 3000 can be seen at booth number 920, belonging to Rhombus Systems, a logistic project/process management company. “We are honored that Rhombus Systems has chosen our solutions to showcase their capabilities in such an important event as The Digital Signage Show,” says Dave Haar, Minicom’s Managing Director of the North America Division. Jeff A. Metzger, Executive Vice President of Rhombus, likewise expressed satisfaction, “Rhombus is very fortunate to have Minicom as a partner, helping our installations go smoothly and making our customers happy.” Rhombus Systems has been a Minicom Digital Signage partner since 2005.

Also at the show, Minicom will be presenting its new VGA Extender, a real-time, extension system able to transmit video up to 110m/360ft from 1 source to 1 screen or 1 source to 2 screens.
