The AT-DVI4-100SR is fully HDCP and EDID compliant. In addition, the AT-HD4-V110SR provides support for Deep Color, HDCP, and full 3D, while preserving 7.1-channel digital audio, including DTS-HD and Dolby® TrueHD.

The Atlona AT-PRO2HD88M-SR and AT-PRO2HD1616M-SR are true 8×8 and 16×16 high-speed HDMI matrix switchers, featuring eight or 16 HDMI 1.4 inputs and eight or 16 independently switchable twisted pair outputs to feed eight or 16 separate receiver modules (included). The units have the ability to equalize, amplify, and reclock the signal to ensure HDMI-accurate signal transmission through long cables without quality loss. Featuring HDBaseT technology, the switchers extend HDMI sources up to 330 feet at 4Kx2K resolution over a single Cat 5/6/7 cable, in addition to providing analog two-channel stereo, bidirectional RS-232, and zone-specific bidirectional IR pass-through up to 60 KHz. In addition, the unit provides support for Deep Color, HDCP, and full 3D, while preserving 7.1-channel digital audio, including DTS-HD and Dolby® TrueHD.

AT-PROHD82M 8×2 HD Video Scaler With Two Matrix Outputs
The AT-PROHD82M is a multivideo matrix switcher featuring eight inputs and two matrix outputs, each providing both HDMI and VGA connections. Perfectly suited for multiroom A/V applications, the unit features outputs that can display signals from any of the eight inputs, allowing users to send audio and video signals across multiple displays. The AT-PROHD82M scales the outgoing video signal on both the HDMI and VGA outputs. The HDMI outputs are capable of displaying 720p and 1080p, while the VGA outputs can display resolutions from SVGA 800×600 to WUXGA 1920×1200.

AT-DRC444 Multi-Input Presentation Switcher Featuring 3x Audio and Video Switching (DVI, HDMI, VGA, Composite Video and Audio)
The AT-DRC444 includes four inputs with one output composite video switch; four inputs with one output VGA switch; and two DVI and two HDMI inputs with one DVI output switch. Each video input is accompanied by its own audio input. In addition, the switcher features a microphone input, and allows users to mix the microphone signal with the main audio in “talk-over” mode. The DRC444 is designed to be controlled via RS232, RS485, or IR.

AT-PA100 Professional Stereo/Mono Audio Amplifier With Three Inputs (2x Stereo, 1x MIC)
A flexible solution for commercial applications, the AT-PC100 is based on a digital amplification circuit (Class-D) that allows it to work in either stereo mode at 2×20 W or in bridge mode (mono) at 1×40 W. When in bridge mode, the unit’s dual-mono ability provides amplification for one speaker, or shares amplification between two speakers at a higher impedance. The AT-PC100 features built-in EQ control to adjust bass and treble, while a microphone mixer function provides separate control in mixing the microphone signal with the line audio output. The unit offers RS-232 control for simple integration with third-party control systems.

Real Digital Media, a leading provider of digital signage solutions, has successfully partnered with Independent Purchasing Cooperative, Inc. (IPC), a franchisee-owned purchasing cooperative for SUBWAY®, to roll out a digital signage initiative named SUBWAY® TV across its global network. This rollout follows a successful pilot phase that demonstrated the potential of digital signage to enhance the customer experience and drive sales.

Designed to improve customer engagement in SUBWAY® stores worldwide, SUBWAY® TV aims to inform customers more effectively about their food and drink choices while also serving as a dynamic marketing tool. The initiative leverages NEOCAST®, Real Digital Media’s enterprise-class digital signage platform, renowned for its scalability and flexibility. With the completion of a successful pilot, IPC began a chain-wide rollout of the program across North America and other global markets in late 2010.

IPC meticulously selected NEOCAST® based on stringent criteria, including the ability to scale across over 34,000 SUBWAY® locations worldwide and integrate seamless media player operations capable of streaming music and supporting high-definition content. The franchisees initiated the deployment of SUBWAY® TV primarily in the queue lines, where customers make their sandwich choices, with plans to expand into dining areas and integrate digital menu boards.

Dennis Clabby, IPC’s Vice President of Purchasing, emphasized the importance of digital signage in enhancing customer experiences and the operational benefits for franchisees. “Our decision was confirmed throughout the pilot phase last year, which showed significant potential and support from franchisees globally,” Clabby stated.

Michael Baron, President of Real Digital Media, highlighted the collaborative effort with SUBWAY® and IPC, which led to substantial enhancements to the NEOCAST® platform. “The proactive approach by SUBWAY® in harnessing digital signage technology has been a key factor in their continued success and growth,” Baron commented.

The introduction of SUBWAY® TV is part of a broader strategy to adopt cutting-edge technologies that enrich the customer experience and support SUBWAY®’s position as a leader in the global quick-service restaurant (QSR) sector.
