Intel SDM-L Smart Display Modules for Large-Format Screens
A smart display module is a slot-in PC card built to Intel’s SDM specification: it plugs into a display’s SDM slot through a PCIe-style edge connector, so the screen carries its own computer with no box or cabling behind it. The SDM-L size takes full Core i3 to i7 processors, dual memory slots and a rear I/O bracket.
Options include 8K output through the slot connector, HDMI 2.1 on the bracket, 2.5GbE, NVMe storage, optional Wi-Fi and vPro processors for remote management, suited to video walls, large-format signage, control rooms and retail screens where the display vendor offers an SDM slot. For panels with the 80-pin JAE slot, see our OPS computers.
Speak to a smart display module specialist to match the processor, outputs and management options to your displays.

What to Specify in an SDM-L Smart Display Module
Our digital signage specialists check every smart display module against the display it slots into, the content it runs and how it will be managed. These are the choices we work through with you before recommending a module.
SDM Slot Size
SDM-S is a small card for compact players; SDM-L takes full Core processors. Check which size your display provides.
Output Resolution
The slot carries 4K or 8K to the panel; the bracket adds HDMI 2.1 for a second screen or a video wall link.
Remote Management
vPro processors add out-of-band management, so screens across a site can be updated and recovered remotely.
Memory and Storage
Dual SO-DIMM slots and M.2 NVMe size the module for local content, apps and caching.
Network and Wireless
2.5GbE on the bracket for wired networks, with an optional Wi-Fi card for screens without a cable run.
Operating System
Windows 11 or Linux is installed and tested before it ships, ready for your content or control software.
