LCD Enclosures in Australia
LCD enclosures in Australia are increasing in demand as more and more Australian digital signage integrators use LCD enclosures in Australia for outdoor digital signage protection.

 

Applications for LCD enclosures in Australia.

Not limited just to outdoor digital signage protection, LCD enclosures in Australia are being used in prisons and jails and even mental health units, not only used to protect the hardware from damage irrelevant of it is vandalism or extreme weather. Let us take a look at the OOH (out of home) sector for outdoor digital signage and we see that Australia outdoor advertising has grown for the 7th consecutive quarter, meaning that this is certainly a growing industry and this is why LCD enclosures in Australia are in high demand.

 

LCD enclosures in Australia – sizes used.

Impact is everything in the outdoor digital signage industry, this is why they are deploying larger and larger screens to get the advertising message across to consumers. So screens up to and including 75' are being used, however when they use such a massive size screen they have to have a protective enclosure to safeguard the screen from damage, as the initial investment will be in the thousands. Sizes of LCD enclosures used in Australia have been from 42' up to a huge 75'.

 

LCD enclosures in Australia – cooling solutions.

Outdoor temperatures can vary in Australia up to an extremely high temperature with the highest temperature recorded of 50.7 C(123 Fahrenheit) on the 2nd January 1960. Now imagine if you put an expensive screen inside and LCD enclosure and it was sealed without adequate ventilation, what would happen? The hardware would fail due to excess heat build up, this is why our enclosures have the facility to add an air conditioning unit to the LCD enclosure, ensuring that the internal hardware is kept cool even in the most hostile, scorching temperatures. As standard the LCD enclosures in Australia are fitted with thermostatic cooling systems, these are more than adequate as they have been deployed in areas that the standard working temperature is in the 130\'s Fahrenheit, namely in Qatar and the Middle East.

 

LCD enclosures in Australia – successes.

Successes in Australia for LCD enclosures includes supplying several mental health facilities with their non loop LCD enclosures as well as prisons and correctional facilities, (currently one project for supplying 732 LCD enclosures). The more unusual applications is with energy companies that are deploying wind turbines and they need to monitor them, using small 26' LCD displays in LCD enclosures in Australia outback these record how efficient they are and how much power they have generated, protecting the electronic hardware in temperatures in excess of 100 degrees Fahrenheit.

Australia - Internet, Broadband and Digital Economy Statistics (tables only)

Author:lisamartin

Broadband market
Although there is some conjecture that the actual number of internet service providers ranges from less than 400 through to more than 600, BuddeComm estimates that in early 2011 there were around 450 providers, offering services ranging from dial-up through to digital subscriber line, fibre and wireless solutions. Some internet service providers only service small numbers, less than 100 users.

The fixed Australia broadband market in 2011 is still growing and in that year the percentage increase was higher than in the past couple of years. The increase in numbers appears to be coming from uptake by newer customers, plus the continued drop-off in dial-up customers as they move to a faster and often cheaper service.

Continued strong adoption of services such as Ethernet and private IP in the business data market segment saw revenue growth of around 15in 2011.

The hybrid fibre coax networks operated by the two major operators in Australia, Telstra and Optus, were upgraded to DOCSIS 3 in 2010 as a way of remaining competitive in the current broadband market – that is, before the national broadband network is rolled out.

Broadcasting
According to the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) there are 28 distinct commercial television licence areas across Australia. Broadcast planning provides for three commercial television licence operators in Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth and Sydney.

During 2009-2011 the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, the Special Broadcasting Service, Seven, Nine and Ten all launched free-to-view digital channels on the Freeview platform. In early 2011 total digital TV penetration was at 75across Australia and steady growth is expected to continue until 2013. A number of regions have now switched from analogue to digital, and of these regions most have hit 100household penetration leading up to the changeover, with some users being assisted by the Household Assistance Scheme.

The past net losses of pay TV have decreased and profits are arriving. The average revenue per user of both AUSTAR and Foxtel are increasing as they are driven by higher-tier package uptake. As the analogue switchover to digital broadcasting moves across the Australian continent the subscription TV operators may be able to increase subscribers as the viewers get the feeling of what is possible in the new digital TV environment.

The recent changes in media ownership and broadcasting regulations in Australia are likely to lead to further consolidation of radio operators and increased cross-media ownership. In 2011 takeovers are starting to take place, with the Austereo Group merging into Southern Cross Media and Fairfax offloading its regional radio stations.

The digital economy

• We are getting a clearer view of where this media industry is going. The picture is still slightly blurred but increasingly we see the traditional TV media concentrating on digital TV. Investment-wise that is where their money is going. They have been unable to keep up with the digital media activities of the new players, which are dominating the broadband content and services market.
• Separately we are beginning to see other activities that we classify as belonging to digital economy, such as e-commerce, e-health, e-learning and smart grids. These last activities are covered in separate BuddeComm reports.
• Expenditure on online advertising in Australia continues to expand, targeting businesses and consumers – these groups are increasing their online usage as uptake of smarter technology and faster connections make accessing the internet easier.
• By mid-2011 online advertising increased by around 20year-on-year in 2011. The same amount of growth also occurred YoY by mid-2010. The increase in online advertising may be in anticipation of an improved economic environment coming into 2012, as Australian businesses continue to increase the amount of online sales.
• Online video and web TV have become recognised as a powerful format for both communicating online and providing an enhanced online experience.
