MEDIAEDGE®is a multi-channel, multi-
location delivery system of either high- or
standard-definition (HD or SD) video
using standard TCP/IP networks and HD/
SD display devices. Comprised of server,
encoder, client software, and set-top
box (STB) components, this flexible and
modular system is ideal for point-of-sale,
corporate, and other video-retrieval and
digital-signage applications.
The HDMA-4100 is perfect for limited
bandwidth applications. Content is
pushed to the unit and stored on an
internal hard drive for scheduled or on-
demand playback.
High-Quality HD Video Playback
HD video is currently the most talked-
about medium for sales promotion and
information communication. With the
HDMA-4100, presenting sharp, high-
resolution HD video couldn’t be easier.
High-resolution HD video has far greater
appeal to viewers than conventional
SD-resolution video. It has a strong
persuasive power, for highly efficient
sales promotion and information
communication.
Supports Scheduled Playback and
Video-on-Demand (VOD) Playback
In addition to simply playing back HD
video, the HDMA-4100 unit can be used
for scheduled playback, where video
content is played back according to a
user-defined schedule. Content is also
available on-demand using an infrared
controller. A programming interface
allows third-party control systems to take
command of playback operation.
The HDMA-4100 is a compact,
standalone, high-definition video
playback unit that is simple to update
via a network or USB drive.

7.5 in. (D) x 1.73 in. (H) and only about 3.31 lbs. in weight, but
contains all the required functions from video content storage
