LED Wall Planner

Enter the ideal screen size, then snap LED cabinets into it — and get the real size, resolution, power and cabling.

Screen

Coming from the Display Planner? Size and pitch are prefilled — just pick a cabinet.

Panel sizes and pixel pitches follow the selected model — only the sizes that model can be produced in are offered.

Non-standard panel sizes — a narrower right column and/or shorter top row lands the real size closer to the ideal.

Cabinet power input is rated 16 A — the circuit cannot exceed it.

The red dashed line marks your ideal size; the darker grid is the actual wall assembled from panels.

How cabinet matching works

LED walls are built from fixed-size cabinets, so the real screen is always a whole number of cabinets. The planner rounds the ideal size up in each direction:columns = ceil(width ÷ cabinet width) androws = ceil(height ÷ cabinet height). Resolution follows from the pitch: pixels = floor(size mm ÷ pitch).

Fixed-installation walls can mix panel sizes to land closer to the ideal: pick a narrowerright column and/or a shorter top row from the model's non-standard sizes. The planner then combines standard cabinets with one right column, one top row, and — when both are used — a corner panel of the intersection size, picking whichever combination covers the ideal with the least overshoot.

Power is the area times the W/m² draw (average and peak), converted to amps at your mains voltage. Cabinets per power cable uses your chosen circuit size (10 / 16 / 20 A), capped at the cabinet's power-input rating — a 16 A-rated cabinet can't be fed from a 20 A circuit. Cabinets per network cable uses Novastar's pixel-per-cable rule — 650,000 px at 8-bit and 325,000 px at 10/12-bit per 1 Gbps link at 60 Hz. Backup cabling simply doubles the signal cable count.

Disclaimer: cabinet sizes, power draws and cabling counts are planning estimates. Confirm the exact figures with your LED wall manufacturer and electrician.
