Israel --
Minicom Advanced Systems, a world leader in Digital Signage
player-to-screen connectivity, is launching the DS Vision® HDMI, a
cutting-edge HD Digital Multimedia Distribution and Extension system. It
“narrowcasts” high-definition digital video and audio from a single player
to remote plasma/LCD screens located 250 meters/825 feet away. The real-time
delivery of rich multimedia content has close to zero degradation of video
and sound quality.

“Unlike similar products, DS Vision HDMI not only extends, it also
distributes digital audio and video to multiple screens via a unique cascade
feature,” says Amir Ginossar, Minicom Product Manager for the Digital
Signage products, “This exclusive feature makes it ideal for multi-screen
applications such as advertising screens in supermarket aisles or near
check-outs. Since the digital AV distribution is done by cascading via
repeaters, you need only install one cable going from one checkout screen to
the next, significantly reducing cable clutter and cost while simplifying
installation.”
The DS Vision HDMI features Minicom’s advanced CAT 5/6/7 cable
distribution technology. CAT5 is much less expensive than HDMI cable, can
even distribute content further and it is easier to install. Unlike other
HDMI products that require two cables, DS Vision HDMI features a unique
single cable solution transferring both Audio/Video and supporting screen
resolution optimization (DDC), further simplifying installation and reducing
installation costs.
“DS Vision HDMI is the latest addition to our award winning DS Vision
3000 line,” says Dave Haar, Vice-President of Digital Signage at Minicom.
“The system’s versatility makes it ideal for everything from small domestic
installations to commercial applications.”
