signage controller. For the latest CeeNee product information and news, please visit us at

Our HD digital signage player, the Orchid, is a complete solution to schedule and playback
advertisements on both digital and analog displays. Users can use desktop, laptop computers, and
even smart phones to manage the content easily. With Wi-Fi, 3G and 4G capabilities, Orchid can
be placed and controlled at an isolate remote location where RJ45 cable running is not feasible.
The Orchid also provides an intuitive directory and a file structure that can easily be created and
maintained by any text-based editor. Therefore, this allows users to concentrate more on the
content creation process. All of our products support the output resolutions up to Full HD 1080p.
The HDMI and composite connectors with separate analog and digital audio outputs provide the
flexibility when connecting to various display devices.
