ACTi ZEN Media Player Stick - 4K Media Player - CDS-SHODS-ZENS

ACTi CDS-SHODS-ZENS 4K Media Player Stick

Overview

The ACTi CDS-SHODS-ZENS is a 4K media player stick designed to stream and display surveillance video and content on standard displays within security control rooms, command centers, and monitoring stations. This compact stick form factor plugs directly into an HDMI port, eliminating the need for a separate set-top box or dedicated appliance when you need lightweight playback capability for multi-monitor surveillance layouts.

Compatibility

The CDS-SHODS-ZENS integrates with ACTi surveillance systems and ONVIF-compliant video management platforms. Confirm compatibility with your specific VMS deployment and ACTi camera models before purchase — contact your system integrator or ACTi pre-sales team for site-specific validation.

Installation Notes

Mount the stick behind or beside your display using the HDMI port. Ensure adequate power supply (USB or AC adapter, depending on model revision) and network connectivity — wired Ethernet is recommended over Wi-Fi for stable 4K streaming in 24/7 surveillance environments. Position the stick to avoid heat buildup from enclosed cabinet installations.
