Chief Velocity System to Debut at the National Restaurant Association Show

New Chief Velocity Outdoor Menu Board Mount Will Exhibit at McCormick Place in Booth 11835

EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. — Mar. 12 2025, —Chief, a brand of Legrand | AV, announced that its new Chief® Velocity Outdoor Pedestal System will debut at the National Restaurant Association Show at McCormick Place in Chicago, May 17-20. Exhibiting in Booth 11835, SageNet — a leading managed services provider specializing in connectivity, digital signage, and cybersecurity — will feature the new Chief Velocity System, a modular outdoor digital signage menu board pedestal mount with single, double, or triple display options.

Ideal for quick service restaurant (QSR) drive-through menu boards, the system supports Samsung and LG 55-inch outdoor displays and can easily accommodate future expansion. The new Chief Velocity System features a modular design, providing a reduced long-term cost of ownership that allows end-users to make the most of their digital signage assets. 

“The modularity of the Chief Velocity mount provides a quick, easy installation and allows QSR owners to maximize their investment,” said IV Dickson, SageNet’s Chief Innovation Officer. “As their business grows, it’s easy to expand their menu boards because they can easily update their existing single display to a dual or triple display.“

Chief Velocity is designed for quick setup and requires only two people for installation. No heavy-lift equipment is necessary — eliminating equipment rental costs. Simplified French cleat display mounting provides fast, safe installation with lateral shift for zero bezel-to-bezel gaps. Efficient installation equals reduced downtime for drive-through services, which means less lost revenue. 

Chief Velocity system components are shipped on a standard 48" pallet, which easily fits in a smaller receiving dock. The slotted base plate provides 15 degrees of rotational mounting flexibility to ideally position the menu boards for the specific demands of each site.

The new system is designed to withstand harsh weather conditions and comes complete with outdoor-rated finishes that meet stringent UL 2442 Part 2 requirements. This includes robust galvanized steel with outdoor-rated primer and powder-coat, and compatibility with best-in-class outdoor displays from Samsung and LG.

The Chief Velocity Outdoor Pedestal System includes three complete system SKUs and two inventorial SKUs:
  • Chief Velocity Outdoor Single Pedestal System
  • Chief Velocity Outdoor Dual Pedestal System
  • Chief Velocity Outdoor Triple Pedestal System
  • Chief Velocity Pedestal Modular Frame
  • Chief Velocity Pedestal Modular Base
The system also offers three optional accessories:
  • Chief Velocity Outdoor Speaker Mount Accessory
  • Chief Velocity Outdoor Back Cover Samsung
  • Chief Velocity Outdoor Back Cover LG

The system will be available in Q2 of 2025.
