Avnet, Microsoft leading webinar on digital signage deployment considerations with DST

May 5, 2011

Avnet Technology Solutions, a transnational electronics distributors of electronic parts, enterprise computing and storage products and embedded subsystems, will present along with Digital Signage Today a webinar covering pre-deployment considerations at 2 p.m. EST, May 10

The webinar, "Deployment Considerations for Digital Signage: Have you thought of everything?" will examine how digital-signage deployers oftentimes go straight to the end point, i.e. the content, without adequately considering the complete scope of a large regional, national or worldwide rollout.

The webinar will take a high-level look at the many hardware, software and service considerations that need to be fully considered to ensure a successful implementation, including the following:

• How will your content be hosted/updated?
• Where will your signs be installed?
• Will they require mounts/cabling/wireless?
• Who will service your signs if they fail in the field?
• What operation system will your content run on?
• How will you dispose of any old displays in compliance with state and federal laws?

Experts from both Avnet and Microsoft will take participants through critical digital-signage deployment considerations, covering the entire set of hardware and software considerations from touchscreens and enhancements through monitors, operating systems, media players and servers, with an emphasis on the operating system and service needs.
