Same LED Wall Size, Different Native Resolution
Two LED walls can take up the same space and display different numbers of pixels. Use two 55″ COB panels as a worked example and see what changes as you add cabinets.

Calculate native resolution
Pixel pitch is the spacing between adjacent pixels. On cabinets of the same size, a smaller pitch generally fits more pixels. Use the specified pixel dimensions of a cabinet and multiply along each axis.
Native wall resolution(Columns × cabinet pixel width) × (Rows × cabinet pixel height)Use the same cabinet model and orientation throughout the wall.
The 4 × 4 layout uses 16 cabinets and measures about 220″ diagonally. Each VA55-1.2 cabinet has 960 × 540 pixels. Multiply each axis by 4 to get 3,840 × 2,160 native pixels.
Plan from the available width and height
Measure the space, decide what your content needs to show and check the nearest viewing distance. If a controller accepts a 4K input, check the cabinet layout as well. A wall with fewer physical pixels can show a scaled image.
For an LCD wall retrofit, ask the installer to verify the mount, load capacity and room for front service before selecting cabinets.
