Find The Perfect Digital Signage Hardware With Pickcel
Setting up a full digital signage hardware does not have to be expensive. Pickcel simplifies digital signage by helping you choose and set up the right hardware.
Choosing the right digital signage hardware
Here is a quick overview of the main types of digital signage hardware that complement our software solutions:
Media players for non-smart displays
A media player is the heart of any digital signage hardware setup. It acts as an external PC to store and process digital signage content. Whether it’s static visuals, videos, or animations, a digital signage player is an ideal choice to ensure a smooth playback experience.

Smart display screens
Smart TVs, commercial screens, and SOC displays that come with in-built digital signage capabilities eliminate the need for separate media players in setting up digital signage hardware. Pickcel software runs directly on these devices to stream vibrant, high-resolution content.

Digital signage hardware is a set of signage components that include media players, SOC screens, mounts and any other hardware that is needed to set up a digital signage display. They work alongside solutions like Pickcel’s signage software to showcase your content on a signage screen.
Most display screens come with built-in digital signage capabilities that turn the screen into a standalone PC capable of running a signage software. However, not all screens are equipped with this technology. That’s where a dedicated digital signage hardware device comes into play.
A digital signage player is designed specifically to pair with such displays to run digital signage content effectively. Whether you have a media player-enabled screen or need an external player, having the right setup makes all the difference.
A digital signage hardware typically consists of three main hardware components:
- Digital Signage Media Players: These are specialized computers that power your signage content. Options include Rise Vision, Chrome OS, Windows, Raspberry Pi, and more.
- Digital Signage Displays: Commercial-grade displays are recommended for durability and performance, though TVs can also be used.
- Cables, Mounts, and Support Structures: These ensure your displays are securely installed and properly connected.
Choosing the right hardware depends on your specific needs, such as the number of displays, operating system preference, and space constraints. Always opt for reliable, commercial-grade equipment to ensure long-term performance.
If you have a commercial TV with inbuilt SOC features, you can easily upgrade it as a digital signage hardware component. Commercial screens such as Samsung Tizen and LG WebOS are good examples for this. However, regular consumer TV doesn't allow signage software app installations as they lack the compatibility features.
