Scala Media Player-SMPA-R1x05G-x
The Scala Media Player SMPA-R1x05G-x units are passively cooled, (no fans/blowers), x86 PC Digital Signage
Players based on the AMD Embedded Ryzen R1K-series APU SoC.
The SMPA-R1x05G-x has one/two, HDMI 2.0a video connectors with hex-nut stand-offs for facilitating the
“screw-down” retention of HDMI cables that have integrated locking screws in their connector hoods or via
the addition, (not included), of external HDMI cable lock brackets.
In addition, these devices feature the following Input/Output ports:
• LAN: GbE, (One or Two RJ45 Gigabit Ethernet), IEEE 802.3ab, [Realtek RTL8111H-CG or compatible]
• Wi-Fi: One SMA antenna sockets for IEEE 802.11ac/a/b/g/n 2.4GHz/5GHz dual-band and Bluetooth 5.0
based on an AzureWave AW-CB375NF M.2 module
• [Optional] Factory-installed 4G-LTE cellular data connectivity
• Serial: One DB9-male RS232 Serial port
• USB: 4x USB 3.x Type-A host ports
• Audio: 1x 3.5 mm Mono Microphone; 1x 3.5mm Stereo line-out.
• Remote Power Switch: RJ11 jack for remote power button & power LED
• LED-Buttons: Power On/Off; HW EDID-Emulator ON/OFF & Copy/Erase
• Recessed(pinhole) buttons: Clear CMOS, Reset
The SMPA runs the Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2019 LTSC operating system in a “two partition”
implementation that supports the “Universal Write Filter”, (UWF), feature. UWF permits for a “Locked
System Configuration State” in which the device is more resistant to tampering/alteration than would be
normally the case for a PC based on a Windows operating system.
