Independent sourcing desk
Digital Signage Display Sourcing is an independent sourcing partner for buyers who need factory quotations on a digital signage display. The work is to freeze the requirement, ask more than one factory the same questions, and return the differences in writing. The desk does not operate a module line and does not claim an authorized dealer relationship.
A file moves through four gates. You describe the screen. The desk marks missing fields. Factories answer the exact model they propose. You compare delivered cost with the exclusions still visible. None of those gates is a performance certificate. On 26 October 2026 the Daktronics indoor video page and the ThomasNet RFI help page were read as public question sources. They do not appoint this desk.
No dollar total is published here because no quotation has been accepted for a named model. The layers exist so a later quote can be checked. A buyer who writes 1,200 USD per unit or 18,000 USD for the whole order is setting a target, not reporting a transaction.
Panel or cabinet, pixel pitch in millimeters, and resolution. A 1.5 mm pitch and a 3.9 mm pitch are example figures buyers write. Rated power in watts is part of this layer when the datasheet states it for that model.
Mount, sending card, or media player, and the control interface those parts use. If the bill of materials omits the player, the hardware price is not the screen that will run content.
Filters, calibration tools, and a spare parts list. One spare module per 12 cabinets is an example ratio a buyer may request. It is not a rule this desk enforces.
Crate size, Incoterm, and the US destination. A 500 mm cabinet and a 55-inch panel crate do not share a freight assumption. Duties stay on this layer.
Who powers the screen, who loads a 10-minute test loop, and who signs the factory acceptance test. Commissioning scope that is silent is not included. Preventive maintenance after handover is a later contract, not this inquiry.
Quantity, currency, destination, and the optional budget basis. Procurement also decides whether a standard 500 mm by 1000 mm module is acceptable or whether the opening forces a custom size. That standard-versus-custom split should be written before factories reply.
Input voltage, working envelope, service access, and structural support. A rear clearance of 800 mm is a site fact engineering must confirm. Ingress protection and ambient temperature limits come from the proposed datasheet, not from a category name.
Duty cycle, content throughput, and noise level near a seating area. A 24-hour menu board and a 10-hour showroom loop stress fans and players differently. Operations names the hours. The supplier names the consequence for the exact model.
Which drawing revision is in force, which test records are required, and how a specification deviation is accepted. Quality does not treat a family brochure as a certificate. Repeatability of brightness across a wall is a test to define, with the pattern and the meter distance stated.
The shared handoff is one brief. If a role leaves pitch, voltage, or destination blank, the desk marks the gap instead of filling it. Utilities requirement, including circuit count, stays with your electrician.
Headline rating versus stated test basis is the third dispute this desk will not collapse. A 700 nit indoor claim and a 5,000 nit outdoor claim can both be real for their own methods and still be unfit for your window. Keep the method on the line. The LCD scope page, the inquiry labels, and the brief note use the same rule.
Use the existing form. There is no separate portal and no published street address. A complete message is the start of factory-quote coordination.
