PPDS launch Philips S-Line Series
PPDS announced the debut of Philips S-Line - a series of stretched digital signage
displays,
bringing new creative possibilities for high-impact installations in space-limited environments.
First teased on the Philips stand during ISE 2022 and available now for order, the brand new 37"
Philips S-Line series (37BDL3050S) adds a new dimension to PPDS' ever-evolving and expanding
digital
signage and dvLED portfolio, with this latest evolution featuring a highly unique and
eye-catching,
ultra-wide 32:9 aspect ratio (928.5 x 282.3 x 48.7 mm).
Built for 24/7 operation, offering uncompromising reliability, and equipped with a powerful
700cd/m²
high-brightness (1920x540), Philips S-Line is the ideal solution for a variety of industries and
uses, including public venues, transportation, restaurants and retail.
Complimenting PPDS' existing digital signage range, the S-Line's stretched design and narrow
bezel
frame (12.4mm T/B, 10.5mm R/L) opens a multitude of opportunities, with customers able to be
deliver
crystal clear, high-impact content in spaces where traditional digital signage may not be
suitable
due to size constraints.
Portrait or landscape mountable, Philips S-Line can transform almost any surface - including
over
shelving, above busy order points, in transport hubs and in other narrow spaces. At just 7.76
kg,
the displays can also be mounted in a broader range of spaces, including on temporary walls,
such as
those used on kiosks and in concessions and pop ups within shopping malls.
Built with flexibility in mind, and to remove current marketplace limitations, Philips S-Line
displays can be installed as a standalone solution or seamlessly daisy chained using PPDS'
versatile
HMDI linking technology, as part of a multi-display setup for more creative yet compact designs.
For
tiled setups, simply connect two or more displays using a single external player.
Running on Android 8, Philips S-Line is optimised for native Android apps, with users able to
install their desired apps directly to the display. And featuring an integrated media player,
content can be created and easily scheduled via a USB and internal memory, helping to ensure
displays remain active at all times, even in the event of a network outage. Philips S-Line
displays
wake from standby to play the content you want, and then return to standby once playback is
done.
Philips S-Line will also soon be compatible with PPDS' evolutionary cloud platform PPDS Wave,
adding
even more advanced remote management capabilities, whether the displays are in single or
multiple
locations across the world.
Martijn van der Woude, Head of Global Business Development and Marketing at PPDS,

delighted to introduce our brand new Philips S-line series, adding new opportunities for our

most
vibrant content, coupled with effortless control and management capabilities, Philips S-Line,
literally stretches out the opportunities for retailers, public venues and transportation hubs
to
deliver innovative ways of communicating with their customers and standing out in the crowd."
