Sharp LED-E025i-217 – 217" E Series FHD dvLED Video Wall Kit

Product Overview

The Sharp LED-E025i-217 is a 217-inch Full HD direct view LED video wall kit built for auditoriums, all-hands rooms and large commercial meeting spaces where audiences view from 8 feet and beyond. Using Sharp/NEC's E Series 2.50mm pixel pitch LED modules, this dvLED display kit delivers 1000 cd/m2 brightness on a single, bezel-free 1920x1080 canvas. The complete LED video wall bundle includes the controller, power bar, framing, mounting structure and spare parts, giving AV integrators a cost-effective, single-SKU path to a large format LED display for corporate, education and house of worship deployments.

Product Description

The E Series brings commercial dvLED imaging to cost-conscious buyers without compromising on the service and support expected from the Sharp/NEC brand. The 2.50mm pixel pitch is optimized for viewing distances from 8 feet to an ideal 15 feet, which matches the seating geometry of auditoriums, training rooms, houses of worship and large presentation spaces. With 1000 cd/m2 typical brightness and a 7000:1 contrast ratio, content stays legible even in rooms with significant ambient light — a common limitation of projection in the same venues.

The modular design uses 27-inch diagonal 16:9 modules, making the LED-E025i-217 an accessible alternative to aging LCD video walls with their visible bezels. The full kit ships with the LED controller, 64 cabinets carrying 256 pixel cards, an 8x8 overframe kit, power bar, 8x8 wall mount, pixel card removal tool and spare parts. Front-serviceable, hot-swappable pixel cards can be replaced without turning the display off, allowing flush wall mounting where rear access is impossible and minimizing downtime in always-on environments. At just 2 inches deep, the thin and lightweight structure supports ADA-compliant installation. HDMI, DVI-D and 3G-SDI inputs plus LAN and GenLock control integrate cleanly with commercial AV control systems and video processors. Sharp/NEC backs the E Series with planning, design, installation and post-installation maintenance support.

Note: Price does not include installation. Contact Creation Networks for turnkey design, installation and commissioning pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included with the LED-E025i-217 video wall kit?

The bundle includes the LED controller, 64 LED cabinets with 256 pixel cards, an 8x8 overframe kit, power bar, 8x8 wall mount, pixel card removal tool and spare parts. Professional installation is required and is not included in the product price; Creation Networks can quote turnkey installation.

How does this Full HD kit differ from the UHD LED-E012i-217?

Both are 217-inch E Series walls. The LED-E025i-217 uses a 2.50mm pitch at 1920x1080 with 1000 cd/m2 brightness for 8-15 ft viewing, while the LED-E012i-217 UHD kit uses a 1.25mm pitch at 3840x2160 for closer viewing distances at a higher price point.

Is 2.50mm pixel pitch sharp enough for my auditorium?

Yes, for audiences seated 8 feet or further from the screen. Sharp/NEC rates this kit for viewing from 8 feet to an optimal 15 feet, which matches most auditorium, house of worship and large training room layouts.

How does the kit integrate with an AV control system?

The included LED controller accepts HDMI, DVI-D and 3G-SDI sources and provides LAN and GenLock connections for control system integration, centralized monitoring and signal synchronization.

What power and structural planning is required?

Plan electrical service for up to 8000 W maximum draw (2560 W typical) and a wall or structure rated for the 755.8 lb. display plus mounting hardware. Creation Networks can coordinate site surveys with your electrical and structural contractors.

What warranty covers the E Series?

The LED-E025i-217 carries a 2-year limited warranty from Sharp/NEC with available planning, installation and post-installation maintenance support. Contact Creation Networks for extended coverage options.
