How many pixels can the Colorlight X16E-3D drive?

10,480,000 pixels in total, across 16 outputs carrying up to 650,000 pixels each. Both limits apply — filling every port does not unlock more than the total.

How many cabinets does the Colorlight X16E-3D drive?

INFiLED IRWT0.93-SSC (0.93 mm): 32 cabinets; INFiLED IRWK1.5 (1.56 mm): 112 cabinets; Planar VPI-2.3VX (2.3148 mm): 208 cabinets; AOTO SW3.7 (3.75 mm): 192 cabinets; Samsung IS059C-BL (5.9 mm): 1,472 cabinets. The exact figure depends on the cabinet's pixel count.

Which panels work with the Colorlight X16E-3D?

Any cabinet whose receiving card speaks the Colorlight protocol, within the capacity above. Most manufacturers fit the card the customer orders, so confirm the ecosystem with your supplier.
