Minicom’s Remote Management, Distribution and Extension Systems Now Available at Electrograph; Expands Electrograph’s Digital Signage Portfolio

HAUPPAUGE, NEW YORK – Fresh off the floor at the recent Digital Signage Expo (DSE), Electrograph Systems, Inc., the leading national distributor of display technology products and services, has finalized a partnership with Minicom Advanced Systems, a global leader in the manufacture of digital signage distribution systems. The agreement gives Electrograph resellers direct access to Minicom’s remote management, distribution and extension systems and strengthens Electrograph’s position as the number-one distributor of digital signage AV displays and accessories.

“Being able to monitor, control and distribute the right content to the right screens at the right time is truly what makes the digital signage system a dynamic marketing and sales tool,” said Jeff Jerome, director of product management for Electrograph Systems, Inc. “Mincom’s digital signage distribution products strengthen our ability to provide resellers with all the elements of a digital signage system through one distributor.”

According to Saul Mishaan, president of Minicom U.S., “Having our products available at Electrograph makes them far more accessible to new partners in the reseller channel. At the same time, it gives our existing partners a highly trusted distribution source for their Minicom digital signage products.”
