Digital signage

All digital signage units must be installed in a common subnet with the following characteristic

  • DHCP is available

  • DHCP assigns at least one DNS server

  • UDP Broadcast is available

  • In addition to this, the Director must have access to the internet at the ip-ranges

  • 52.236.20.80/29

  • 217.119.170.56/29

Network Load

The amount of data that the Director retrieves from the internet varies with the number of slides to be displayed. A rule of thumb is 2 MB per product shown.

Additional screens showing the same material does not demand an increase in network connection bandwidth.

Connecting player hardware to wireless network

  • Broadcasting SSID

  • The wireless network needs to have Broadcasting SSID

  • The wireless network needs to have WPA2-PSK encryption with passphrase (open unencrypted networks will not work)

  • The wireless network needs to have proper and stable signal strength.

  • The two Wi-Fi antennas included with the player hardware must be mounted.

Furthermore, if the SSID or the passphrase is changed the player hardware must be reconfigured.
