Multi-Monitor displays instore

Hey,

Ive been asked to look into how to have multiple monitors around the store when it can display the promotional ads the store currently has etc. How is this done? One computer with some sort of large video splitter device or..?

Yea, all i get there is dual monitors. Im talking more than that, the stores are huge so we could use something like 10-20.

Do you want to have a single desktop spread across multiple monitors to make a giant presentation, or will each monitor be displaying a separate sideshow/video/interactive application?

all monitors will be displaying the same thing. My idea was to have a central computer with monitors linked to that. But i dont know what hardware i need to do this as the standard gfx card only supports dual monitors?

I wondered if there was like a router type device to do this

1 to 16 VGA Splitter

Max cable lenght from device 65m or 215 feet, you should be able to daisy-chain it if you needed it longer. HD ready for 1080p HDTVs too!

VGA splitters work with coax cable, but there are also video hubs that will pump S-video with audio 2000+ feet over CAT5 cable: http://www.svideo.com/avhub1.html
