			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This week, our team thought of doing something different from our usual postings &#8211; we decided to open up the NDSP-500 <span class='bm_keywordlink'><a href="http://www.advertiseme.com.au" target="_blank">digital signage</a></span> <span class='bm_keywordlink'><a href="http://www.digialsignageportal.com" target="_blank">player</a></span> and give you a brief look at what&#8217;s inside one of these players. The video is not of the greatest quality but it does give you an idea of the components inside a typical digital signage player and what connections are available. So here&#8217;s the video:</p>
<p><object width="425" height="344" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZiseBYhNjNM&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/ZiseBYhNjNM&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /></object></p>
<p>As you can clearly see, the unit is small&#8230; it&#8217;s smaller than half of an A4 paper. With this particular unit, there are several connectors at the front:</p>
<p>1. RS232 &#8211; this is usually to provide serial communications with another device. It can be used to control and manage an display screen &#8211; that&#8217;s if the screen supports RS232.<br />
2. Secure compartment to store the SD card &#8211; it&#8217;s also a quick way to easily swap out the SD card without having to open up the box</p>
<p>At the back of the unit you will notice the following connectors:</p>
<p>1.Video output:  the unit has these typical connections &#8211; S-Video Output/Composite Video and Audio, DVI, and VGA.</p>
<p>2. Video Input: Composite Video and Audio. With this particular unit you will be able to connect a video input source such as a DVD player, Foxtel, CCTV camera etc.</p>
<p>3. S/PDIF &#8211; for great audio quality</p>
<p>4. LAN port which support 10/100 Mbps</p>
<p>5. Two USB ports for connecting USB Storage</p>
<p>6. Power plug to connect the power supply. This power plug was different from other digital signage players we&#8217;ve seen in the past. It basically has a connector which allows you to twist and screw the power cable to the power plug.</p>
<p>Inside the player, all you will find is a circuit board, a frame for a small hard disk and several cables. As you can see from the video, you will not find a fan inside the player &#8211; this makes the unit very quiet when it&#8217;s turned on.</p>
<blockquote class="question"><p>Would you like to see more <span class='bm_keywordlink'><a href="http://www.digitalsignageportal.com/Videos" target="_blank">videos</a></span>? Let us know what you&#8217;ll like to see and we&#8217;ll try to get it done.</p></blockquote>
