Outdoor digital signage in Australia

Outdoor digital signage built for Australian conditions, from direct sun and 40°C summers to dust, coastal salt, and public-space wear. Manuco Electronics has supplied commercial-grade outdoor displays since 1987, distributing Hyundai IT, AUO, AD Link, and DigitalView from our Thomastown headquarters in Melbourne. We supply AV integrators, project managers, IT teams, and procurement specialists across Australia and New Zealand.

How to specify outdoor digital signage

Two specification decisions drive most outdoor display projects: brightness for the sun exposure on the site, and protection rating for weather, dust, and vandal resistance. 

Brightness and sunlight readability

  • Indoor, controlled lighting: 350 to 700 nits
  • Semi-outdoor, covered or shaded: 700 to 1,500 nits
  • Window-facing or high-ambient indoor: 1,500 to 2,500 nits
  • Direct outdoor, partial sun: 2,500 to 3,000 nits
  • Direct outdoor, full sun: 3,000+ nits
  • Hyundai IT outdoor monitors in the Manuco range: up to 3,000 nits with auto brightness control
