LAS VEGAS, March 28, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — AOPEN®, a global electronics manufacturer of cross-platform, commercial-grade products and a thought leader in digital signage, today announced the launch of its feature-rich DE3450 Digital Engine© series. Two new ultra-slim, entry-level media players feature affordable UHD 4K and IoT Edge Control capabilities. The DE3450 series will be showcased in AOPEN Booth 2912 at Digital Signage Expo 2018, alongside the expanding AOPEN portfolio of commercial-grade, cloud-based solutions.
The DE3450 series features fanless media players that are easy to manage and monitor from anywhere – reducing operating costs and boosting efficiency for enterprise end users. While its Watchdog Timer detects and recovers from any malfunctions, its shock-proof capabilities effectively resist environmental stresses – offering security, reliability, and durability. Built on the Intel Apollo Lake Quad Core CPU, with Intel Graphics HD500, the DE3450 series powers interactive self-service kiosk solutions, as well as single-screen and multi-screen display applications. The series supports M.2 SSD, and both products feature four USB 3.0 ports, one HDMI 2.0 port, and one RS232 port; it also continues to distinguish AOPEN with auto power recovery (APAR) and support for Microsoft Windows 7/8.1/10 and Linux.
The DE3450s is a cost-effective, reliable UHD media player built to play 24/7. With an ultra slim design that can be integrated into small spaces, the DE3450s is the affordable choice for digital signage, kiosk, and enterprise solutions.
The DE3450 features an additional 10-GbE port, remote diagnostic capabilities, and TPM security. It supports VP9 video playback and can run a 1080p display @60fps and a 4K display @30fps. With the device control feature, the SuperRTC tool enables users to set advanced content schedules for different times of day, while the EDID Emulator prevents resolution issues and black screens. Additional features include:
- System data record.
- HDMI signal detection.
- An optional IR remote controller
