NEC Display Solutions expands its solution portfolio with LED video walls

The ultimate in "Total Display Solutions"

Munich, 1 October 2010 – NEC Display Solutions is now offering LED modules for video wall installations located both indoors and out. The move into this additional digital and retail signage segment secures the company’s leading position as a provider of what is arguably the widest portfolio of display and projection solutions on the market. The NEC 6mm pixel pitch indoor and 15mm pixel pitch outdoor LED modules are ideal for creating mobile video walls and for fixed installations where the highest performance is demanded. With the addition of LED modules to the NEC product family customers are provided with complete display solutions from a single manufacturer .

When the distances between the display and the viewer are significant, LED modules offer improved brilliance for such situations with efficiencies in energy use and costs. LED modules also provide an extended product life expectancy when compared to other technologies. The applications range from mobile (rental) installations for events and staging to fixed installations in sports facilities, congress centres, shopping malls, reception halls, airports, broadcast studios, railway stations or as an advertising medium on buildings, for example .

With the introduction of the LED modules with a 6mm pixel pitch (SMD technology) for indoors and 15mm pixel pitch (Discrete LED technology) for outdoor installations, NEC Display Solutions is now entering the LED sector. Both versions of the NEC product work according to the “True Pixel” principle, in which each red, green and blue LED forms one pixel. This means that brilliances of around 2,000 NIT (6mm) and 7,500 NIT (15mm) as well as better colour depth and accuracy can be achieved compared to the “Virtual Pixel” principle. The NEC LED modules also impress with their extremely low energy consumption, which ensures improved cost-efficiency during operation .

" As well as the LED modules, the basic components of an LED video wall require a suitable wall mounting solution, cables and a video distributor and processor, NEC has developed a complete LED solution with these components," says Clemens von Braunmühl, Manager Product Management EMEA at NEC Display Solutions. "With our first-class network of expertise comprising distributors, solution partners and systems integrators, we are able to offer the LED modules in addition to all the other existing NEC display solutions. For our customers, this means having a single, defined contact that can provide a tremendous range of projectors, LC displays and now also LED modules, as well as the associated consulting, service and maintenance structures required to create a solution that is individually tailored to their needs. "
