- Black Box Corporation, a provider of voice services, data services, and IT product solutions, has announced the launch of an on-line video aimed at educating businesses on the basics of digital signage, including how to choose media players for streaming content and RSS feeds.
- The video, titled “An Introduction to Digital Signage” and part of the Company’s ongoing “Tips for Techs” series, begins as a “video white paper,” explaining why so many industries are embracing digital signage as a way to market and disseminate information in high-traffic areas. The video then discusses media players and the other components of digital signage deployments, from simple to complex, and how to choose a system according to one’s needs and budget.
