Digital signage connectivity
Mobile connectivity for digital signage, menu boards and window displays, so content changes from anywhere and a blank screen gets noticed. No Wi-Fi to depend on, and nothing touching your business network.
What it does
Each screen, or the small media player behind it, connects over the mobile network to your signage software. New menus, prices and promotions go out on schedule, to one screen or hundreds.
It works the other way too. A screen that goes blank or stops updating can report it, so you find out before a customer does.
Prices and menus changed in minutes, including by time of day.
Window displays updated centrally across every branch.
Welcome screens and directions kept current.
Displays at sites with no network at all.
Why mobile
Signage is usually installed where the network is weakest, and plugging it into the business network causes problems of its own.
Windows, walls and forecourts are rarely where the Wi-Fi is strongest.
Media players are often left unpatched; a separate connection keeps them away from your systems.
Content changes do not depend on the office network or the IT team.
Screens in patchy spots? A multi-network SIM uses whichever network is strongest where the screen is.

Signage uses more data than most connected equipment, so the plan needs sizing to your content.
Plans matched to how often your content changes.
Large downloads scheduled out of hours.
Know when a screen stops checking in.
Every screen on one bill.
How it is set up
Some media players take a SIM directly. Others connect through a compact 4G or 5G router beside the screen, which can also serve other kit nearby.
We supply and configure the connectivity and work alongside your signage software provider, or help you choose one.
Most signage players keep content locally and only download changes, so a brief dip in signal does not blank the screen.

Common questions
It depends on your content. Images and short videos downloaded when they change use far less than constant streaming. We size the data to how often your content updates.
Yes. With each screen connected, your signage software can push changes to one screen, a group or every site at once.
We focus on the connectivity and work with your signage provider. If you are starting from scratch, we can help you plan the setup.
You can, but signage is often where the Wi-Fi is weakest, and a separate connection keeps screens away from your business network and independent of your IT.
Most players keep showing the content they already have and catch up when the connection returns.
