Advantech Launches DS-330: Durable 4K Player for Smart Cities and Outdoor Applications

Advantech, Taipei, Taiwan, 25.07.2025 - Advantech (2395.TW), a global leader in industrial IoT and embedded computing solutions, is proud to announce launch of the DS-330, a compact, fanless digital signage player built for next-generation smart city infrastructure. Powered by Intel® Atom® x7000 series processors, the DS-330 delivers ultra-clear 4K visuals and reliable performance in extreme environments - making it ideal for drive-thrus, transit hubs, outdoor kiosks, and public video walls.

Rugged Performance for Outdoor Digital Displays

The DS-330 is powered by the latest Intel® Atom® x7000 Series, Intel® Celeron® N97, or Intel® Core™ i3-N305 processors, delivering scalable performance for a wide range of deployments - from basic public information displays to AI-enabled edge signage.Despite its compact size (180 x 150 x 35 mm), the DS-330 supports triple 4K display output, including two HDMI 2.0 ports with hardware EDID and one USB-C video port. This makes it an ideal solution for synchronized, high-clarity signage in transportation centers, digital menu boards, and wayfinding systems.

Built for Harsh Environments

Designed for 24/7 operation in challenging conditions, the DS-330 features:

• Fanless design for silent and dust-resistant performance
• Wide operating temperature range (-20 to 60°C)
• Flexible 12–24V DC power input
• Industrial-grade durability for long-term outdoor deployments

Comprehensive Connectivity

The DS-330 offers extensive I/O interfaces to simplify integration across diverse systems:

• 2 x 2.5GbE LAN for fast and secure data transfer
• 4 x USB 3.2 Gen1 + 1 x USB-C for peripheral connections
• 2 x Powered COM (RS-232) for legacy devices
• 1 x RJ12 port for POS peripherals or sensors

Smarter Management with Out-of-Band (OOB) Control

To simplify maintenance and reduce operational costs, the DS-330 includes Out-of-Band (OOB) management capabilities. This allows IT administrators to remotely reboot, monitor, and troubleshoot devices - even if the operating system is unresponsive - minimizing service disruptions and maximizing uptime across large-scale deployments.

Enabling Smart City Innovation

Whether installed at a transit platform, outdoor kiosk, or retail environment, the DS-330 empowers operators to deliver vibrant, context-aware content reliably and efficiently. With its compact footprint, robust I/O, and remote management features, the DS-330 advances the connected, digital infrastructure needed for today’s smart cities.
