Digital signage demands secure, cost-effective connectivity

Whether you need to promote your brand or provide vital information to motorists, airport passengers or patrons at an entertainment venue, selecting the right wireless digital signage solution vendor goes a long way to ensuring successful, secure and cost-effective digital signage management.

Keep your brand secure

A security breach can result in the display of unauthorized text or images, loss of proprietary information and unforeseen costs. Digi routers and embedded products for digital signage services are "secure by design." Rugged construction and protected ports prevent physical intrusion; features like secure boot ensure firmware updates can only be made by authorized personnel.

Make your message matter

With high-speed cellular connectivity and integrated Digi Remote Manager®, you can dynamically customize your signage messaging, keep tabs on your deployed devices and ensure that all of your displays are connected. Digi offers a wide variety of purpose-built router options and embedded products to meet the requirements of your deployment worldwide.

Always-on connectivity

For digital signage networks where wired connections may not be possible, Digi enterprise cellular extenders offer reliable high-performance connectivity. Digi wireless failover solutions switch automatically from a disrupted wired connection to a fallback high-speed wireless connection to keep your messages in front of your customers.

Digital signage solutions deliver security, reliability and value

Digi routers provide secure, reliable connectivity for a range of digital signage use cases. From wayfinding in large entertainment venues, to schedule information for travelers, to flexible advertising in city centers, digital signage must perform flawlessly in both climate-controlled indoor environments and in outdoor applications subject to unpredictable weather conditions.

Digi Support for Digital Signage

Automated Network Security

Digi’s system-level security architecture uses PKI, IPsec and SCEP to establish a high level of defense against cyber attacks with low operational cost. Its open system authentication protocols enable use of multi-vendor data center equipment, unlike similar competitor offerings.

Auto-Configure

Digi Remote Manager retains a full copy of the configuration when a router is deployed, which simplifies both the initial installation and any replacement down the road. This improves maintenance efficiency, as site personnel do not need configuration training or laptops. It also increases network reliability and availability, with fewer configuration errors.

Link Performance Measurement

Digi Remote Manager provides detailed performance metrics on latency and availability for every communication link, as well as reports for offline analysis. Administrators can perform speed tests to evaluate peak throughput at any time using industry standard iperf, for quick detection and resolution of any network problems.

Advanced Specifications

Digi offers cellular routers for a range of environmental conditions, including industrial-rated solutions that are hardened and tested to perform in highly demanding conditions. Products are available that meet the industry standard TS2 specification. Embedded devices have edge compute capabilities to process data locally with fast response times even in the event of a communication disruption.

Customers turn to Digi solutions for performance and value

From digital signage solutions and kiosks in small retail environments to large city center advertising and remote industrial signage applications, connectivity must work seamlessly, securely and reliably. Digi delivers.
