• Seamless Viewing Experience: Compared to tiled LCD displays, Direct View LED eliminates bezels for a more immersive look. Panels are factory-calibrated for color consistency and are easier to replace individually, simplifying maintenance.
• Flexible Sizing & Layouts: Direct View LED video walls can be built in standard or custom resolutions and aspect ratios, giving you flexibility to match your exact visual and spatial needs.
• Low Maintenance vs. Projectors: Unlike projectors, Direct View LED doesn’t require bulb or motor replacements, performs well in bright spaces, and even has mobile setup options for added versatility.

• All-in-One Designs: All ViewSonic Direct View LED solutions are All-in-One, making specification, installation, and operation easier for everyone—from IT to end users.
• Indoor-Rated Performance: Designed specifically for indoor environments, these displays are built to handle high-traffic, high-usage settings with reliability.
• Flexible Form Factors: Options include mobile, preconfigured, and custom-configured solutions to fit your space, workflow, and integration needs.

All-in-One Direct View LED displays include everything needed for a complete video wall—cabinets, LED tiles, power supplies, video processing, cabling, and mounting—all in one package. This simplifies purchasing, setup, and deployment for faster, easier integration.

• Preconfigured: These ViewSonic All-in-One Direct View LED displays come in fixed screen sizes (e.g., 136”, 165”, 231”) with a standard 16:9 aspect ratio and are offered under a single part number for easy specification.
• Configurable: These solutions are custom-built for your space and needs—flexible in size, resolution, aspect ratio, pixel pitch, and layout. ViewSonic offers expert design support via our Field Solutions Engineering team and the LDC configurator to help build the perfect setup.

While many Direct View LED displays can be mounted on a stand, ViewSonic’s LDS series of displays are purpose-built for mobility. These pre-assembled, foldable video wall on wheels designed for high-usage environments where flexibility is key—ideal for organizations that need to move one screen across multiple spaces. No permanent installation required.

A Direct View LED wall is made of tiles containing LEDs that form the pixels. These tiles fit into cabinets, which provide power and the image signal.

Cabinets are horizontally and vertically stacked together to create a seamless display. ViewSonic All-in-One solutions include everything—tiles, cabinets, power supply, video processing and mounts in a single SKU for easy specification, installation, and use.

Pixel pitch is the distance (in millimeters) between the centers of two adjacent LEDs. Smaller pixel pitches mean higher LED density, resulting in higher resolutions, especially important for close-up viewing.

Common pixel pitches include 1.2mm, 1.5mm, 1.8mm, and 2.5mm. ViewSonic offers pixel pitches as fine as 0.7mm, enabling 4K resolution in smaller screen sizes.

• Viewing distance is the most important factor.
• Choose a smaller pixel pitch for close-up settings like classrooms and boardrooms.
• Use a larger pixel pitch for areas with distant viewing, such as lobbies or auditoriums.
• Budget also plays a role—larger pixel pitches are typically lower cost.
• ViewSonic can help recommend the ideal pixel pitch for your space and use case.

• SMD (Surface-Mounted Device)
  • Most common and cost-effective option
  • Well-established, mature technology
  • LEDs are exposed—can be damaged with direct contact
  • Pixel pitches typically as low as 1.2mm
• GOB (Glue-On-Board)
  • SMD technology with a protective glue coating
  • Significantly improved durability—resistant to impact, dust, and moisture
  • Ideal for high-traffic or public environments
• COB (Chip-On-Board)
  • LEDs are mounted directly to the circuit board—does not use exposed wiring like SMD
  • Premium option with tighter pixel pitches down to 0.7mm
  • Similar durability to GOB, with a sleek, seamless surface
  • Ideal for close-range, high-detail applications

• SMD displays have exposed LEDs, making them more prone to damage from direct contact.
• GOB and COB technologies offer much greater durability with protective coatings or embedded designs. All ViewSonic Direct View LED solutions include either GOB or COB technology.
• ViewSonic GOB and COB solutions feature IP and IK ratings, making them ideal for heavy-use environments where impact, dust, or moisture resistance is important.

• Similar to standard displays, ViewSonic Direct View LED includes HDMI inputs, USB playback, and support for Android-based apps.
• An integrated video wall processor enables advanced features like Picture-in-Picture (PIP) and Picture-by-Picture (PBP) for flexible content display.
• ViewSonic Direct View LED displays support Ethernet and RS-232 control for easy integration with AV control systems.

• LEDs used in Direct View LED displays offer exceptionally long lifespans.
• ViewSonic Direct View LED products are rated for up to 100,000 hours of use—often exceeding the system’s expected operational life.

• Power requirements vary based on screen size and pixel pitch. Larger screens and lower pixel pitches require more power.
• Preconfigured ViewSonic Direct View LED displays typically require 1 x 20A circuit to 2 x 30A circuits at 120V.
• Configurable Direct View LED solutions may require additional power for larger setups, but the typical range is 1 x 20A to 2 x 30A at 120V. Larger setups may require 240V and additional circuits depending on the configuration.
• Power requirements are considered in the design and installation consultation provided by ViewSonic.

• The control bar houses all power supplies and video processing.
• For standard installation, the control bar is mounted underneath the display for seamless integration.

• Yes, the control bar can be installed separately from the display or hidden using optional installation kits, sold separately.
• Configurable Direct View LED displays offer the option of a rackmount controller with power, allowing for additional flexibility in setup.

• Yes! ViewSonic provides design consultations (at no charge) for both preconfigured and configurable Direct View LED solutions.
• The consultation includes guidance on screen size, pixel pitch, power requirements, and installation needs, ensuring a customized solution for your space and goals.

• ViewSonic Direct View LEDs include a member of the Field Service Team on-site during installation to supervise and guide the installation process (physical installation is an optional add-on for pre-configured models).
• Installation services are available for preconfigured SKUs, where a ViewSonic partner installer will come on-site for installation.

• ViewSonic provides a dedicated team of Field Solutions Engineers for pre-installation support and on-site assistance.
• Post-installation support is available through our US-based Technical Support Team for continued assistance.

• ViewSonic offers a 3-year standard warranty.
• 4 and 5-year extended warranties are available for purchase on preconfigured and configurable products (LDM, LDP, LDC).

• Yes, 5% spare tiles are included with every Direct View LED purchase.
• For configurable Direct View LEDs, additional spare tiles can be purchased at the time of order.
  • Since configurable Direct View LEDs are made to order, the additional spare tiles will be calibrated during production.
