Hikvision DS-D4257CQ42-2BP vs ROE Visual CB5 MkII

5.714 mm against 5.77 mm · specifications from both manufacturers' datasheets

Side-by-side specifications, then the same wall built from each tile, so the comparison is in panels, kilograms, circuits and data runs rather than in marketing copy.

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: 7.68 × 4.80 m and 7.80 × 4.80 m respectively.

What the numbers say

Both resolve to about the same density (30,625 and 30,044 pixels per square metre), so pick on weight, power or what your shop already owns rather than on image detail.
ROE Visual CB5 MkII is the lighter rig: 17 kg/m² against 21 kg/m². Across this wall that is 181 kg of difference, 674 kg versus 855 kg, which moves point loads and can change the hoist call.
ROE Visual CB5 MkII draws more: 667 W/m² against 565 W/m² at full white. For this wall that is 20.8 kW versus 25 kW, and 10 versus 12 circuits at a 16 A/230 V supply with an 80% derate.
Both come out at 3 data runs for this wall, though they carry 13 and 24 panels per port respectively.
Different cabinet formats: 1280 × 960 mm against 600 × 1200 mm, so 30 tiles versus 52 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: 3.1 m for ROE Visual CB5 MkII against 4.4 m for the other, including spares, cases and cabling.
