Plug-and-Play Signage Hardware

The CrowdSense Signage Player is a palm-sized 4K player we preconfigure before it ships — HDMI into any screen and it starts playing. Want the screens too? We supply and install those as well.

The Player

Preconfigured Before It Ships

On site there are no setup screens and no logins — the player arrives ready to go, so you plug it in and your content is playing.

It is silent, palm-sized and mounts behind the screen it drives. From the dashboard you can restart it, screenshot what it is showing and push updates — without anyone visiting the screen.

Specs

What's Under the Hood

Playback

Smooth full-screen playback up to 4K, including video, layouts with live zones and portrait rotation.

Connectivity

Dual-band wifi and gigabit Ethernet, with HDMI out to the screen. Content is cached locally for offline playback.

4G LTE option

Order any player with an LTE modem and a data plan and it needs nothing from the venue but power. Ideal for pop-ups, festival sites, car parks and landlord networks you will never get onto.

Footprint

Palm-sized and silent, mounts behind the screen it drives. Powered by a standard wall socket.

Management

Provisioned to your account before it ships. Remote restarts, screenshots, status and over-the-air updates from the dashboard.

In the box

Player with preloaded storage, official power supply for AU sockets, and an HDMI cable tested for 4K. LTE units add the modem and an activated SIM.

Audio

Sound travels over the same HDMI cable as the picture, so screens with speakers can carry announcements, stingers or a menu board’s soundtrack.

Warranty & spares

Replacement units shipped fast, and cold spares included on fleet rollouts so a failed player never darkens a screen for long.

Connectivity

No Network? Ship It on 4G LTE

Order any player with the LTE option and it arrives with a modem and an activated SIM on a managed data plan. The screen needs nothing from the venue but a power point — no guest wifi, no port patched, no landlord IT approval.

Specify it alongside wifi or Ethernet on fixed screens and it becomes failover instead: when the venue link drops, the player keeps pulling from mobile and nobody watching ever sees a black screen.

4G LTE

Why Screens Run on Mobile

The connection is the part of a signage rollout that stalls most often. LTE removes it from the critical path.

Nothing needed from the venue

A power point is the whole install requirement. No guest wifi, no port patched, no waiting on a landlord’s IT team to approve a device on their network.

Data plan managed by us

The SIM ships activated on a pooled plan sized for signage traffic. One line on your invoice covers the player, the platform and the connectivity.

Made for temporary sites

Festival gates, pop-ups, activations, sales suites and car parks — anywhere a screen goes up for a week and comes down again, LTE is the only connection that makes sense.

Failover for fixed screens

Specify LTE alongside wifi or Ethernet and the player falls back to mobile when the venue link drops, so a network outage never becomes a black screen anyone sees.

Frugal by design

Content is cached on the player and only changes are pulled down, so an LTE screen sips data rather than streaming it — even on a full-motion playlist.

Same remote management

LTE players restart, screenshot, report status and take firmware over the air exactly like a wired one. You cannot tell from the dashboard which is which.

Screens

Bring a Screen or Buy One From Us

Any TV or display with an HDMI input works, in portrait or landscape — the screens behind the bar, the spare in the storeroom, the video wall in the foyer.

For screens on all-day duty, we spec and supply commercial-grade displays built to run bright for years — and plan the install for venues, precincts and festival sites.

Ways to Buy

However You Want to Own It

Buy outright

Own your players from day one. Simple per-unit pricing, with volume pricing on fleet orders.

Bundle with your plan

Roll hardware into an annual signage subscription and skip the upfront spend — one line item covers screens, software and support.

Full rollout, done for you

We spec commercial displays, supply preconfigured players, stage the fleet and plan the install — from a single venue to a festival site.

    HDMI into the display, power into the wall, then wifi, Ethernet — or nothing at all if you ordered it on 4G LTE.

  3. 03

    It’s already playing

    The player pulls its assigned playlist the moment it comes online. Walk away — the dashboard has it from here.
