Symon introduces digital signage in a box
February 27, 2008
PLANO, Texas — Symon Communications, a global provider of digital signage solutions, has announced the availability of a new media player called the Symon Integrated Appliance. The SIA is designed as an entry level digital signage solution. It is a multimedia device that is pre-loaded with all required Symon software for easy deployment and direct playback as a complete system. It can deliver rich media to any flat panel display.
LobbyView is another new bundled product from Symon with an integrated LCD monitor, media player and Symon digital software packaged as an all-in-one digital signage solution. It is a specialized Symon digital signage system with a combination 42-inch LCD monitor and a built-in SIA media player.
Both offerings include pre-loaded software licenses for Symon Enterprise Software, one copy of Symon Design Studio (content management and data control software), and Symon Digital Appliance media player software.
Additional copies of Design Studio as well as SDA media players can be added. As with other Symon media player implementations, one SDA provides content to one or many flat panel displays delivering the same channel. The SIA and LobbyView are delivered with Design Studio standard layouts and several additional "skins" to help the customer build their own custom shows.
Symon offers a Pro-Media Package for those customers who may not have the resources or who do not want to create their own custom shows. Symon's on-staff graphic artists will create a complete custom show preloaded on the SIA and ready to display on day one. Supplemental content is also available with Symon's OnTarget news, weather, and sports information.
