Product Description

SKU 997-9344-00 is the Clarity Matrix G2 LX46HDU-L-100 landscape panel configured with 100-series off-board electronics. The G2 platform is Planar's mature, field-proven video wall architecture with the thinnest installed depth in its class at 3.6 inches (91mm) achieved through the EasyAxis mounting system. Single power supply modules can drive up to eight displays, significantly reducing rack space and the number of required AC outlets. Built-in video extension supports cable runs up to 500 feet (150 meters), eliminating the cost and reliability concerns associated with third-party extenders. For government and defense applications, an optional Fiber Video Extension provides secure signal transport over single-mode or multi-mode fiber. Planar WallNet software provides SNMP-based health monitoring across the video wall array. 10-bit color processing and 4K input via Big Picture Plus deliver superior image quality for data-intensive control room and visualization applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does SKU 997-9344-00 differ from 997-9334-00?

Both are LX46HDU-L-100 landscape panels. SKU 997-9344-00 is a standard landscape unit. SKU 997-9334-00 is specifically documented with multi-touch ERO capabilities and is positioned for interactive video wall deployments. Confirm your application requirements before selecting.

What does the "-100" designation mean?

The "-100" indicates the 100-series off-board electronics module set included with this unit. The electronics enclosure houses the signal processing, power, and control interfaces separate from the display panel itself.

Do I need AC outlets behind each display?

No. The G2 off-board electronics design allows a single power supply module to drive up to eight panels. AC power is run to the electronics enclosure, not to each individual display, substantially reducing electrical infrastructure requirements at the wall.

Is third-party cable extension equipment required for long cable runs?

No. The Clarity Matrix G2 has built-in video extension supporting runs up to 500 feet (150 meters). This eliminates the cost, failure points, and latency associated with third-party extenders in large facility deployments.

Is the G2 platform still supported by Planar?

Yes. The Clarity Matrix G2 remains an active platform with full Planar support, spare parts availability, and WallNet monitoring software updates. It is a proven architecture deployed in thousands of mission-critical installations worldwide.
