What are Outdoor Displays?
Outdoor displays are screens which are designed to be used in outdoor environments, such as corporate facilities, retail spaces, parks and stadiums. They are typically composed of a weather-tight enclosure with a LCD or LED screen, a secure backplate, and mounting hardware that is designed to withstand all weather conditions. These displays are typically used for advertising, wayfinding and public safety; they are also widely used for entertainment purposes such as at live events and concerts.
Within urban areas digital displays have become commonplace. The most common types of outdoor displays include touchscreen freestanding displays, digital billboards, LED video walls and Digital A-Boards.
Features & Benefits of Outdoor Displays
Outdoor Digital Displays offer numerous advantages over traditional advertising displays. Below are the main benefits of using outdoor displays, no matter what the content delivered may be:
Sunlight Readable Anti-Glare Screens
To ensure maximum visibility in all weather conditions, including bright sunshine, many outdoor displays feature anti-glare glass and we also stock a variety of displays with brightness levels varying from 1000 to 3500 nits, ensuring your content can be seen clearly no matter what the weather may bring.
Vandal Proofing
With outdoor displays positioned in public spaces, the risk of vandalism or accidental damage is typically high. For this reason, many of our off-the-shelf products are IK10 rated and are also tamper proof with controls and inputs hidden away to ensure that they cannot be accessed by passers-by. IK10 is the highest level of resistance offered in designated European strength tests for infrastructure used in public spaces.
IP65 Rating & Smart Temperature Control
To maximise the lifespan of the display and ensure optimum performance in all weather conditions, our outdoor displays also feature a rugged steel outer cabinet rated to IP65. This protects the electrical enclosures against all wet weather conditions and airborne dust particles.
Many of our off-the-shelf displays also feature Smart Temperature Control Systems and can operate efficiently in any temperature from -40 °C to 55°C and with a humidity as high as 95% (depending on the system chosen). The internal airflow system helps to keep the screen running at an optimal temperature regardless of the external conditions.
Multiple Screen Sizes and Resolutions
Our large high variety of screen sizes, aspect ratios and resolutions allows for a more personalised display than if you were using a conventional LCD monitor/screen for your outdoor signage.
Plug and Play Compatibility
Many of our off-the-shelf outdoor displays are available with plug and play compatibility. This is the most straightforward way to upload content to your outdoor digital display. Simply load images and videos onto a USB, insert into the display, wait for your content to copy over, then remove. Your images and videos will then play in a continuous loop.
Networkable Solutions
If remote content control is essential for your project, we can also configure your outdoor display to be networked so you can connect your screen via Wi-Fi, LAN or 4G, and then remotely update it over the internet. This is a great time saving option and is also ideal if your displays are rolled out in multiple locations or in hard to access places.
Multiple Mount Options
Mount options include lockable wall mounts to allow you to securely mount your screen in either landscape or portrait orientation, freestanding displays, or portable Battery Powered A-Boards for complete flexibility.
