Barco XT1.5-E vs Samsung IF015H

1.5 mm against 1.5 mm · specifications from both manufacturers' datasheets

This page puts the two sheets side by side, then builds the same wall from each tile, so the comparison is in panels, kilograms, circuits and data runs.

Whole cabinets rarely hit an identical size, so each wall is the closest build to a real video format (16:9 or 16:10) near 8 m wide for that tile: 7.93 × 4.46 m and 7.68 × 4.32 m respectively.

What the numbers say

• Samsung IF015H resolves finer: 444,444 pixels per square metre against 396,385 for Barco XT1.5-E, 12% more. On a 8 m wide wall that is 5,120 px across versus 4,992 px.
• Samsung IF015H is the lighter rig: 22 kg/m² against 36 kg/m². Across this wall that is 491 kg of difference, 942 kg versus 1,433 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.
• Samsung IF015H draws more: 772 W/m² against 650 W/m² at full white. For this wall that is 23 kW versus 25.6 kW, and 13 versus 16 circuits at a 16 A/230 V supply with an 80% derate.
• Data is lighter on Samsung IF015H: 32 runs against 39, at 6 and 4 panels per port respectively (60 Hz, 8-bit, ports loaded to 80%). Fewer runs means fewer home runs to pull and fewer processor ports to find.
• Different cabinet formats: 609.92 × 343.08 mm against 480 × 540 mm, so 169 tiles versus 128 for the same wall. Fewer, larger cabinets build faster; smaller ones give finer control over wall dimensions and are easier to handle alone.
• Estimated truck space: 6 m for Samsung IF015H against 7.5 m for the other, including spares, cases and cabling.
