Support more complex signage experiences with the BrightSign XD1036 Expanded I O. This BrightSignOS-enabled media player is designed for deployments that need more than basic playback. Dual UHD video decode gives you room for richer layouts and multi-zone content, while PoE+ can reduce cabling complexity by delivering power and network connectivity over a single run. The XD1036 stands out for its expanded interface set. USB-C and USB-A support peripheral and workflow integration, while GPIO, 3.5 mm serial, and 3.5 mm IR I/O provide the control paths often required in enterprise AV systems. Analog/SPDIF audio output adds flexibility when signage needs local sound or connection to existing audio infrastructure. microSD or SSD storage options let teams choose the right balance of simplicity and capacity for the deployment. For organizations standardizing on BrightSign, this model is a strong fit when the signage network needs more I/O, more decode headroom, and more installation flexibility. It is well suited to premium retail, corporate communications, hospitality, and multi-zone environments where the player must do more than simply push content to a screen.
