Search Tips...

Keyword Search
Our search engine uses any or all keywords typed in the text box to give you product search results.
For instance, typing in kvm will give you a broader set of results than kvm switch cables.

Note, however, that keywords in quotes are treated as a single phrase and will not be evaluated individually.

Booleans (AND, +, OR, NOT, -) are not supported.

Also, some keywords will not return results, and may automatically correct to a similar keyword.

Part Number Search Selection
Select this Search in the drop down box to search by part number instead of keywords.

Wild Card Search
The * character is only supported in a limited capacity. Using whole words is the best approach whenever possible.

"New Search" Radio Button
Search the entire section that you are currently in.

"Search Within Results" Radio Button
Enter keywords or a part number to limit your results within the previously searched results.


Other features

A list of all matching product categories or resources will appear in the upper left corner of the results page, when applicable, to help you further narrow your results, if you desire.

Use the "sort by" drop-down menu on the results page to sort by "most popular" and price (low to high or high to low)
in the store section.

    This Black Box solution puts control of your digital signage content on a Web-based platform so you can manage it from any browser connection.

    The only hardware you need to install is the included MediaFlyer EXPRESS player, which connects your signage display to the network. And because the platform is browser based, you don’t have to install any design software on your PC.

    The lightweight MediaFlyer EXPRESS player:
    Link to as many digital signage screens as you like using any number of MediaFlyer EXPRESS players. Show the same content on all screens or different content on different screens.

    For video output, the player has both HDMI and DVI ports (to connect to a display with VGA input, use the included adapter).

    It’s up to you whether to integrate it into your existing network or use it in a standalone setup. To connect the MediaFlyer EXPRESS player to the network, just attach a CATx cable to its Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 port. Or you can link it wirelessly to your network via an 802.11 WLAN connection.

    What’s more, the compact box features low power consumption and can be attached discreetly to the back of the display using VESA standard mounting (a bracket is included).

    The MediaFlyer portal interface:
    Manage displays and content from wherever you are. Using a standard browser, you can define sources of images and other content, group them into playlists, and assign playlists or individual sources to your screen(s). A reporting function enables you to see exactly what content has been displayed and for how long on a particular screen—info that you can use to create summary or detailed playout reports.

    The MediaFlyer EXPRESS platform supports an array of dynamic content, including Flash animations, PDFs, PowerPoint® presentations, and MPEG and .wmv video, as well as HTML content and RSS feeds. It can be static content, such as photos, PDFs, PowerPoint® files, and HTML, or output on the fly, such as live images from a Web cam, Flash pages, weather, RSS feeds, and social media. You can also use it to capture Twitter messages or Flickr® photo books for playout on your signage.

    The MFLY-X01 comes with a 1-year subscription to the Web-based service. We also offer a 3-year package (MFLY-X03) as well as a 1-year subscription renewal (MFLY-X01RE) and a 3-year subscription renewal (MFLY-X03RE) for the service.

    Getting creative with MediaFlyer EXPRESS:
    Getting up and running with MediaFlyer EXPRESS is simple. Once you create an account at our MediaFlyer EXPRESS Web site, you just follow the steps to begin loading content and creating your signage layout.

    Choose from four predefined-zone layouts or create your own. After formatting a layout template, slides are created based on that template. These slides can be assigned to displays just like any other item of content, and you can put them in a playlist.

    Though transparent zones and text overlays aren’t possible (for these capabilities you’ll need our advanced iCOMPEL™ platform), the layout interface enables you to put several sources on the screen at once by dividing the display into two or more areas and creating a ticker or text crawl in a zone. A color selection box enables you to choose a color for your selected text.

    The MediaFlyer EXPRESS also offers less image scaling flexibility than the iCOMPEL platform, but you can expand or contract an image until it fits within the pixels available. Or you can expand and crop to fit the screen or scale it horizontally and vertically so the image fills the screen in both directions.

    For most MediaFlyer EXPRESS users, the portal is sufficient for controlling digital signage. But the MediaFlyer EXPRESS also supports an API, so you can use your own applications for content delivery.

    Media formats supported:
  • PowerPoint (.ppt)
  • Flash (.swf)
  • MPEG 4 (.mp4, .m4v, or .mpg)
  • QuickTime® (H.264 .mov)
  • Windows® Media (.wmv)
