SageNet Partners with Peerless-AV® at FSTEC Show to Offer Complete Outdoor Digital Signage Solution for QSR Sector

September 9, 2019

TULSA, Okla.  – SageNet, a Tulsa-based managed network services and cybersecurity solutions provider, is partnering with Peerless-AV to offer a complete outdoor digital menu board solution for quick-service restaurants (QSRs) at the FSTEC show Sept. 8-10 in Dallas.

FSTEC, which attracts more than 1,400 top-level executives, is the industry’s most comprehensive technology conference and the only event of its kind focused on both commercial and non-commercial foodservice.

Peerless-AV is an award-winning designer and manufacturer of outdoor audio and video solutions and accessories. The joint drive-thru solution featured at SageNet’s booth (#376) will showcase Peerless-AV’s Xtreme High Bright Outdoor Daylight Readable Displays with menu board enclosure and pedestal.

The solution is a perfect fit for SageNet’s SageVIEW.dtx offering, a turnkey outdoor digital signage platform designed to help QSRs and convenience stores revolutionize the customer’s drive-thru experience. This unique approach to the digital experience includes high bright outdoor LCD displays, all-weather enclosures, security, power, network connectivity and maintenance. In addition, SageNet’s experienced specialists collaborate with clients to develop a drive-thru approach that reduces order time, increases order value and maximizes ROI.

According to IV Dickson, SageNet’s Director of Digital Signage, the combination of Peerless-AV’s Xtreme High Bright Outdoor Display with SageNet’s leadership in digital signage and network connectivity creates a unique offering for the QSR industry.

“The value proposition of the methodology we use around SageVIEW.dtx is to give the customer a one-stop environment for a turnkey digital experience,” he explained. “Peerless-AV is a leader in the AV solutions industry, and while we have historically worked with them on indoor and outdoor projects, we are very excited about this opportunity to utilize their innovative Xtreme product.”

SageNet and Peerless-AV have already partnered on projects for several large QSR customers, including  some of the nation’s leading restaurant chains that are on the cutting-edge in their approach to indoor and outdoor digital signage.

What makes the Xtreme High Bright Outdoor Display different, according to Peerless-AV’s Vice President of Sales for Americas and APAC, Brian McClimans, is its unique design. The solution is an IP68-rated, fully sealed and maintenance-free display with no fans, vents or filters, and optically bonded glass to protect the monitors. The display features 2,500 nits of brightness and an operating temperature range from -31 degrees F up to 140 degrees F.

“This is a solution designed to not only meet but exceed the requirements of a QSR,” said McClimans. “It offers benefits for reducing operational costs and increasing the sales of upsell items. That’s what an outdoor digital solution should do – guide the consumer to a more satisfying experience and the restaurant to increased sales of key menu items. SageNet offers the convenience and peace of mind of a complete managed solution, and Peerless-AV is thrilled to be part of that solution.”

In addition to offering a complete portfolio of end-to-end digital signage solutions, SageNet has more than 30 years of experience providing a broad range of managed network services to large enterprises, from primary and back-up networks, wireless solutions, merchant connectivity and PCI compliance to customized networking technology solutions – all optimized to meet the needs of multi-site operations.
