New 2013 C Series Line Up
With the introduction of its new C Series LED-backlit displays, Samsung continues to offer products that help make the transition to LED a more affordable and competitive solution, without sacrificing key features. The new C Series includes the LE – C, ED – C, UD – C, UE – C and ME – C displays.

Samsung's Smart Signage Platform is designed to simplify digital signage deployment and is built around an embedded media player and software developer kit.

• LE – C Series: This line features LED backlighting for bright, colorful images and anti-glare technology for sharp pictures even in brightly lit indoor environments. The LE – C Series also includes matte finish of the panel, edge-lit LED backlight technology, slim chassis design and 24/7 run time reliability.
• ED – C Series: Ideal for business customers across multiple industries, this line provides a simple feature set for those that are also price sensitive. The ED – C Series offers simple, commercial grade reliability and energy efficiency due to its direct-lit LED backlight technology and slimmer chassis.
• UD – C Series: Premium displays supporting Full HD resolution with an ultra-narrow bezel for virtually seamless videowalls and 24/7 run time reliability. The UD – C Series includes displays that are tuned at the factor for brightness and color uniformity and includes direct-lit LED backlight technology for deep black tones and a high contrast ratio.
• UE – C Series: The new UE – C series adds Smart Signage Platform functionality for content distributed to a single screen. The displays offer a narrow bezel for constructing attractive videowalls and edge-lit LED backlight technology for ultra-slim chassis depth.  
• ME – C Series: The slim, lightweight displays provide increased energy savings over cold cathode fluorescent lamp (CCFL) backlit displays, while a thin chassis and narrow bezel help simplify installation and provide an impactful message.

MagicInfo VideoWall S
Available on Samsung's new UD – C, UE – C, PE – C, ME – C and MD – C Series displays, Samsung's MagicInfo VideoWall S is a cost effective and versatile video wall software solution that enables users to quickly and easily display HD content across a video wall display however they want wherever they happen to be located. Powered by a System on Chip (SoC) technology, the UD – C, UE – C, PE – C, ME – C and  MD – C Series lines include an embedded, high-performance media player which allows users to play back content without the need for a separate PC or set-back box. The lines provide a simple, easy-to-use interface, eliminating complicated set-up and installation.  

Using the new UD – C, UE – C, PE – C, ME – C and MD – C Series displays, Samsung's MagicInfo VideoWall S enables users to create pre-scheduled posts for content, convert and share from a variety of sources and schedule from different sources to appear simultaneously. Users can  show one image or video across multiple screens or repeat the same image over several individual screens. Users can also adjust brightness and have enhanced factor color calibrations to create uniformity throughout the video wall. Designed to provide an expansive visual experience, the solution is ideal for video walls in high-traffic areas, including commercial, public and corporate information displays.
