PRODUCT DATA SHEET

MEDIAEDGE® is a multi-channel, multi­location delivery system of either high- or
standard-definition (HD or SD) video
using standard TCP/IP networks and HD/
SD display devices. Comprised of server,
encoder, client software, and set-top
box (STB) components, this flexible and
modular system is ideal for point-of-sale,
corporate, and other video-retrieval and
digital-signage applications.

The HDMA-4100 is perfect for limited
bandwidth applications. Content is
pushed to the unit and stored on an
internal hard drive for scheduled or on­demand playback.
