The display is mounted strategically in public view, while the hardware needed to run the multimedia content is kept behind closed doors and out of public reach. Plasmas with built in CPU, which are needed for network content delivery, cost three times as much as regular plasma screens; using a dedicated, out-of-band system like the AV Extender can lower the cost of a display significantly.
