Centrally Manage Digital Signage Services
Cisco Digital Signs provides a flexible environment in which to create and centrally manage a local,
regional, or global IP network of DMPs and their attached presentation systems, such as Cisco-branded
displays in our LCD Professional s
eries.
• Simple but powerful design and publishing features in Digital Signs help you to create media
libraries, employ networked content distribution, schedule playback for programming, and prepare
reports to prove that playback occurred.
• Life-saving features support public emergency preparedness and response.
• Purely administrative features include those to:
–
Define and issue remote commands to DMPs and their attached presentation systems.
–
Poll the current and historical status of DMPs and their attached presentation systems.
–
Adjust the resolution, brightness, contrast, and related settings for presentation systems.
Commonly popular DMP deployment sites under Dig
ital Signs include lobbies, classrooms, showrooms,
service counters, exhibit halls, dining halls, waiting rooms, and offices. Used well, Digital Signs can help
your organization to enhance customer experience, educate students, and entertain patrons.
