FinancingWhen planning a nationwide or worldwide rollout across a network of locations, many companies face financial challenges. As a global Fortune 500 company with a reputation for financial strength

and stability, Avnet is here to assist you with your project’s financial needs.

Custom IntegrationWith integration centers in North America, Europe and Asia, Avnet has the ability to custom integrate your solutions across the globe. Avnet’s integration services include screen enhancements such as

touch screen and anti-reflective coatings, back-end hardware solutions and custom hardware installation.

Site Survey & InstallationAvnet’s global reach enables our installation experts to visit your locations to evaluate installation needs during a site survey. Considerations include power

source, cabling/wireless connectivity, mount/enclosure needs and ideal display size determination.

On-Site Service Level Agreement (SLA) On-site SLAs mean we’re available wherever you are to evaluate, repair and replace failed or defective hardware. This unique ability limits your displays’ downtime and helps protect against additional revenue loss.

Extended WarrantyOur warranty services ensure that you won’t be left high and dry when solutions break-down in the field after an extended period of time.

Asset Recovery (Disposal / Refurbish)A consideration often overlooked is what to do with hardware and displays that have reached the end of their usable lives. Avnet is able to refurbish,

recycle or dispose of your old hardware in a “green” manner that complies with state and federal laws.

ContentProfessional, targeted content is crucial in driving return-on-investment. Avnet has partnered with the premier content developers in the industry to deliver the most professional and effective content at the consumer’s point-of-decision.

Touch ScreensMake your digital signage interactive by adding touch screen enhancements that allow users to navigate the content and information they wish to view. Touch screens are ideal for signage used in a kiosk type environment or for enhancing way finders.

Software / SaaS Advanced content management software allows for easy, instant updates and scheduling of content. The software allows the firm to manage their own content, reducing the time and costs associated with continually having a creative/design firm make changes.

Monitors Ranging in sizes from 30 inches to 82 inches, large format industrial grade LCD panels (DIDs) and LCD monitors from the top suppliers in the industry, display your content brilliantly. These panels/monitors are designed specifically for digital signage, eliminating the risk of burn-in and burn-out that occur when typical consumer grade LCDs are used in a digital signage application.

Operating SystemThe operating system provides the platform on which software and content run. Microsoft offers the Windows Embedded platform which gives solutions providers access to embedded-enabling tools for building digital signs that are more secure, reliable and manageable.

MountsOne of the considerations that is often overlooked is how your display will be mounted. Avnet offers mounts and enclosures to meet the needs of any digital signage installation, from wall and ceiling mounts to custom outdoor and flush wall installations.

Media Players / PlatformsMedia players running on the world-class platforms are located on site and power individual monitors displaying content.

Servers & StorageServers are essential in managing installations across a network of digital signage located in a single area or across the globe. Content needs to be stored in a central location and pushed to installations to effectively manage costs. Avnet is one of the largest distributors of servers and storage from the top manufacturers in the world from both an off-the-shelf and OEM perspective.

Cabling / WirelessDownload or stream content wirelessly across an entire network of displays. Update information or advertising on-the-fly – in real time.

Wireless DataAvnet has the ability to provide wireless data so your network can be maintained efficiently without the use of hardwired

internet cables. This allows content to be updated on the fly from a single central source.

Content Management (SaaS)Software as a service (Saas) allows the customer to track, control and update their content efficiently across a large network of installations from virtually anywhere in the

world via web-based clients. This ensures locations around the world are always displaying the freshest, most-relevant and on-message content that enhances your brand and increases revenue.
