StrandVision Debuts On-premise Digital Signage Server
February 18, 2010
Source: StrandVision
StrandVision introduced a hardware/software
On-premise Distribution Server to complement its Software
as a Service (SaaS) digital signage delivery model.
The On-premise Server addresses specific security, bandwidth
and network control criteria requested by some organizations.
The On-premise Server communicates with the StrandVision Digital
Signage production servers in the Cloud and manages the internal
distribution of signage pages to individual displays over
the customer’s Local Area Network (LAN) and/or Wide Area
Network (WAN). It is typically managed by internal IT staff
while day-to-day digital signage content management remains
the same with non-technical administrators.
“StrandVision On-premise Servers address the technical
needs of our clients while also delivering substantial cost
benefits to installations of more than ten screens,”
said Mike Strand, StrandVision founder and CEO. “On-premise
Servers reduce the number of displays that directly use our
bandwidth so we pass these savings on.”
The StrandVision On-premise Server minimizes the traffic that
passes through proxy servers and firewalls. All of the feeds
that are inside the firewall are automatically consolidated
by the On-premise Server. In addition, since the On-premise
Server is automatically updated and requires no special firewall
configuration, it makes it easier for customers to integrate
digital signage into WANs for corporate and university campuses.
The On-premise Server approach is especially useful for digital
signage installations that include video. The tremendous bandwidth
demands are greatly reduced, which takes pressure off of the
organization’s leased T1, T3 and other Internet connections
while freeing up bandwidth for traffic from other applications,
such as Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP).
Available immediately to StrandVision subscribers, On-premise
Server is priced at $1,799.99. The package includes a rack-mountable
personal computer with pre-installed software and a one-year
license to support ten digital signage displays.
Additional screens are available through a tiered pricing
structure.
Annual renewals are priced at $500.
