Best suited for

  • Advertising and information displays managed through the cloud without a permanent PC.
  • Synchronous installations where a PC or live HDMI/DVI source is shown one-to-one on the display.
  • Displays with a total load of up to 650,000 px (1 Ethernet outputs).

Key features (manufacturer)

  • Loading capacity up to 650,000 pixels; maximum width 2048 pixels, maximum height 2048 pixels
  • Ultra-long screens up to 8192 pixels wide and 2048 pixels high
  • 1x Gigabit Ethernet output port, 1x 3.5 mm audio output connector
  • 1x HDMI 1.3 input connector (maximum input resolution 2048×1024@60Hz) used as the video source in synchronous mode
  • Quad-core ARM A53 processor @1.4 GHz, 2 GB of RAM, 32 GB of internal storage, hardware decoding of 4K videos
  • Plays 1x 4K, 2x 1080p, 4x 720p, 4x 480p or 20x 360p videos
  • Wi-Fi AP and Wi-Fi Sta can be turned on at the same time (2.4GHz Wi-Fi)
  • Synchronous playback across multiple screens with NTP time synchronization; 4G communication and GPS time synchronization need a separately purchased 4G module
