Introducing the CL210: Our Most Compact and Technically Advanced Kiosk Media Player

By ·Categories: Depend OnLogic·Published On: June 12th, 2018·2.6 min read·

The CL210 was designed from the ground up as a best-in-class kiosk media player, menu boards & streaming video applications. The low-cost fanless system is a compact and ultra-reliable media player with an array of features that are critical for deploying dependable, long-lasting digital signage solutions. Here’s what makes the CL210 different from other media players and SOC all-in-one displays on the market.

Multi-CEC Functionality

Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) allows digital signage users to control certain features of their displays directly through the media player. The CL210 employs our patent pending multi-CEC functionality. This lets users control the power functions of multiple displays at the same time. Simply turn on the CL210 and your screens will also power up. You can even program a delay to ensure that the system has booted and media is being displayed before the displays power on.

4G Connectivity

In addition to standard WiFi connectivity, an optional 4G upgrade allows the CL210 to easily connect to the cloud from almost any location. Additionally, the system boasts dual LAN ports. These enable ease of connectivity to multiple networks without the need for a separate cellular gateway.

Reliability

Digital signage solutions are by nature mission critical. Failures can result in expensive downtime or frustrating system replacements. To give our customers the most reliable solution possible, we designed the CL210 around several key features that each extend lifespan and durability while lowering the total cost of ownership. First and foremost, the CL210 has a completely solid-state construction. This means that the CL210 has no moving parts. In addition to the benefit of silent operation, this eliminates two of the most common failure points in media players – the fan and the hard drive. Not only is the CL210 fanless, it is also ventless. This protects the system from exposure to the dust and other airborne particulate that is common in many environments and Kiosk enclosures. Additionally, the CL210 is housed in a durable aluminum chassis, providing both superior component protection and effective passive cooling.

Every surface of the CL210 is designed to dissipate heat while offering maximum EMC immunity to RF and ESD events.  The device’s exacting tolerances enhance ingress protection greatly reducing ill effects of dust transported corrosive substances over time.

Kiosk Media Player Capabilities

The CL210 is a fantastic solution for a wide-range of digital media applications. These applications range from CMS systems, menu boards, video walls and Kiosks. The system can playback 4K video content, or support two independent HD screens. The option to run either Windows or Linux operating systems offers incredible flexibility for software integration and solution configuration.

Ultra-Small Form Factor

One of the biggest challenges in deploying digital signage solutions is finding a media player that will fit within the limited space available. With that in mind, OnLogic developed the CL210 with a sub-2” profile to fit within the tightest space requirements behind screens, under counters or within ceilings.

In summary, if you are looking for a cost effective set-it and forget-it kiosk media player, take a close look at the CL210 from OnLogic.
