Novastar TB30 Full Color LED Display Media Player With Backup
Introduction
The TB30 is a new generation of multimedia player created by NovaStar for full-color LED displays. This multimedia player integrates playback and sending capabilities, allowing users to publish content and control LED displays with a computer, mobile phone, or tablet. Working with our superior cloud-based publishing and monitoring platforms, the TB30 enables users to manage LED displays from an Internet-connected device anywhere, anytime.
Thanks to its reliability, ease of use, and intelligent control, the TB30 becomes a winning choice for commercial LED displays and smart city applications such as fixed displays, lamp-post displays, chain store displays, advertisement players, mirror displays, retail store displays, door head displays, shelf displays, and much more.

Features
Output Control
●Loading capacity up to 650,000 pixels
Maximum width: 4096 pixels Maximum height: 4096 pixels
●2x Gigabit Ethernet ports
One serves as primary and the other as backup.
●1x Stereo audio connector
The audio sample rate of the internal source is fixed at 48 kHz. The audio sample rate of the external source supports 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, or 48 kHz. If NovaStar’s multifunction card is used for audio output, audio with a sample rate of 48 kHz is required.
Input
●2x Sensor connectors
Connect to brightness sensors or temperature and humidity sensors.
●1x USB 3.0 (Type A) port
Allows for playback of content imported from a USB drive and firmware upgrade over USB.
●1x USB (Type B) port
Connects to the control computer for content publishing and screen control.
●1x Gigabit Ethernet port
Connects to the control computer, a LAN or public network for content publishing and screen control.

− Support for H.264/H.265 4K@60Hz video decoding
− 1 GB of onboard RAM
− 16 GB of internal storage
●Flawless playback
2x 4K, 6x 1080p, 10x 720p, or 20x 360p video playback
Functionality
●All-round control plans
− Enables users to publish content and control screens from a computer, mobile phone, or tablet.
− Allows users to publish content and control screens from anywhere, anytime.
− Allows users to monitor screens from anywhere, anytime.
●Switching between Wi-Fi AP and Wi-Fi STA
− In Wi-Fi AP mode, the user terminal connects to the built-in Wi-Fi hotspot of the TB30. The default SSID is “AP+Last 8

digits of SN” and the default password is “12345678”.
− In Wi-Fi STA mode, the user terminal and the TB30 are connected to the Wi-Fi hotspot of a router.
●Synchronous playback across multiple screens
− NTP time synchronization
− GPS time synchronization (The specified 4G module must be installed.)
●Support for 4G modules
The TB30 ships without a 4G module. Users have to purchase 4G modules separately if needed.
Network connection priority: Wired network > Wi- Fi network > 4G network
When multiple types of networks are available, the TB30 will choose a signal automatically according to the priority.
