Optimising total cost of ownership (TCO).
A digital signage solution is a capital asset that must perform in demanding environments. While consumer-grade electronics offer a lower initial purchase price, they represent a significant liability for enterprise networks due to higher failure rates, shorter lifecycles, and lack of security features.
Entwined supplies commercial-grade hardware. We focus on TCO, selecting components engineered for extended duty cycles (16/7 or 24/7) and ruggedised against dust, heat, and grease. This approach minimises the "churn" of hardware replacements and ensures your network remains operational for the full depreciation period.
Commercial LCD displays
LCD & High-Brightness Panels. We source professional panels ranging from standard retail displays to ultra-high brightness window screens. Features include System-on-Chip (SoC) integration, matte anti-glare coatings, and robust thermal management for continuous operation.
LED displays
Seamless, Modular Surfaces. For high-impact environments, we design bespoke LED solutions. Unlike fixed-ratio LCD panels, LED allows for modular configurations of any size or aspect ratio, delivering high-contrast visuals without bezel interruptions, viewable in direct sunlight.
Digital media players
The Computing Engine. The stability of your content depends on the media player. We utilise external, industrial-grade compute units that are fanless and solid-state. These devices are stress-tested to handle complex content and high-resolution video without throttling.
Validation and staging.
Hardware failure at the point of installation is a major cause of project delay. Entwined mitigates this risk through a rigorous pre-deployment staging process.
Before hardware is shipped to site, it undergoes asset tagging, Gold Image software loading, and "Dead on Arrival" (DOA) testing in our local configuration centres. This ensures that when a device arrives at your location, it is ready to connect and perform immediately, reducing on-site engineering time.
