Worked example: a 16 × 9 wall (16:9)

16 columns by 9 rows of this tile makes a 8.00 × 4.50 m wall — the closest this cabinet gets to 16:9 — at 3,456 × 1,944 pixels (6.72 MP) — 144 panels plus 8 spares at the one-off rate. It weighs about 1,375 kg including bumpers, around 550 kg across each of 3 points.

On European power it draws 25.9 kW at full white (13 kW on typical content), which at an 80% derate is 9 × 16 A / 230 V circuits. Data comes to 16 runs at up to 11 panels per port, worst run 65% loaded, fitting 2 × Novastar VX1000. Every figure is derived by the calculator below — change the numbers for your own wall.

The rules behind every number

Every quantity above is derived from the rules below — written with working AV techs and corrected as they red-pen them. Panel and processor specs are placeholders until verified against manufacturer data.

  1. openSpare panels: 5% of wall count, minimum 2 (one-off).
  2. ✓ confirmedBumpers come from your stock, not a formula: widest first, combined to cover 16 columns. Partial coverage (a wider bar over fewer columns) is allowed and noted; shortfalls are flagged instead of invented.
  3. openBumper weights 35/25/15 kg for 3/2/1-wide — placeholder.
  4. openRigging points: one per ≤3 m of wall width, minimum 2 → 3. 1× 1 t hoist per point.
  5. openPer point: 2× steel, 2× spanset, 4× 3.25 t shackle.
  6. openPoint load: wall weight ÷ points × 1.2 dynamic factor. Warn above 800 kg per 1 t hoist.
  7. ✓ confirmedCircuits sized on max load (full white) at 80% derate: 18 panels per 16 A / 230 V circuit (160 W/panel). Typical draw shown separately for the venue/generator ask.
  8. ✓ confirmedPower runs follow the connectors: in one side, out the other, gendered plugs, jumpers as short as the maker can get away with. Vertical works both ways, sideways only one hop to the right (rear view) — so a run may snake up and down across adjacent columns, but never left and right. Vertical snakes over 2 columns → 8 circuits (single columns would need 16, full rows 9).
  9. open1× 63 A 3-phase distro per 18 circuits (1). TRUE1 jumpers = panels − runs, +10% spare.
  10. ✓ confirmedRuns are load-balanced: panels split evenly across the circuits a shape needs — 12+12, never 18+6 — so every main-in pulls about the same. Phases are a suggested round-robin L1–L3 within each distro.
  11. ✓ confirmedExact-pixel mapping (Novastar VX1000): a port carries only the panels wired to it, and data snakes in any direction (unlike power). Wiring follows whole columns as vertical serpentines, numbered from the left seen from the rear — the natural reading order when patching — with every run capped at 80% of 650 k px per 1G port at 60 Hz 8-bit (threshold, refresh and depth adjustable): ≤16 panels per run → 16 runs, worst run 43%. Loads balance evenly across runs. Capacity scaling is theoretical bandwidth (60/Hz × 24/bpp), and per-port width caps on modern controllers are not modelled yet — correct me with measured figures.
  12. ✓ confirmedRedundancy defaults off — rental shows rarely run looped data; it's primarily a critical-installation feature. Turning it on doubles the runs (A+B loops).
  13. openHome runs cut at run distance + wall height + 5 m service loop.
  14. openProcessors are checked on two limits: port count and total pixel capacity (capacities placeholder).
  15. ✓ confirmedProcessor list defaults to Novastar (VX1000 first, UHD Jr / MCTRL / MX / VX family) — rental houses rarely run Brompton; it stays available for the shops that do. All figures verified against manufacturer spec sheets.
  16. openCases: 8 panels per dolly, 60 cables per trunk, 8 bumpers per case, rigging trunk per 6 points. Truck estimate: 0.5 m² footprint per case over 2.4 m trailer width.
  17. openElectronics spares: 1 receiving card per 25 panels, 1 PSU per 25, minimum 1 each.

Questions about this panel

What resolution is a 16 × 9 wall of ROE Visual RB2.3?

3,456 × 1,944 pixels — 6.72 megapixels across 8.00 × 4.50 metres.

How much power does a 8.0 × 4.5 m RB2.3 wall draw?

About 25.9 kW at full white and roughly 13 kW on typical content, from a published 180 W maximum per cabinet. Sized on maximum at an 80% derate that is 9 × 16 A / 230 V circuits.

How many RB2.3 panels fit on one data port?

11 at 60 Hz 8-bit with ports loaded to 80%, since each cabinet is 46,656 pixels. That gives 16 runs for this wall; redundant looping would double it.

What does a RB2.3 panel weigh?

8.16 kg per cabinet, or about 33 kg per square metre. The example wall totals roughly 1,375 kg including bumpers, around 550 kg per point across 3 points. Point loads must be verified by a competent rigger.
