Intel Smart Display Module - slot-in digital signage player

As displays get thinner and power-efficient performance becomes more critical, Intel offers the Intel Smart Display Module (Intel SDM) specification and reference design that can be integrated into the sleekest all-in-one designs. Intel SDM delivers the same level of intelligence and interoperability as the Open Pluggable Specification, but in the smallest form factor yet that eliminates the housing and advances the thinnest integrated displays.

This allows for scalable all-in-one designs that benefit from the cost-effective implementation and management of integrated Intel processor-based media players. Its design omits housing, so it can be fully integrated into visual IoT applications like hospitality screens and bedside terminals that require minimal space with maximum performance.

Intel SDM incorporates high-speed PCIe connectivity with a custom I/O receptacle board that eliminates the need for external I/O. Multiple offerings spanning Intel Atom to Intel Core processors support both basic and extended features with a connector that is future proofed to support 8K resolution displays and video capture, when available.
