Product Overview
The Planar Clarity Matrix G3 LX46U-P-F is a 46-inch Full HD LCD video wall display configured for portrait orientation with the Planar EasyAxis flat (F) mounting system included. Part of the third-generation Clarity Matrix G3 platform, it delivers 500 nits of brightness, a 3.7mm tiled bezel width, and off-board electronics architecture rated for 24/7 mission-critical operation. SKU: 998-0301-00.
Product Description
The LX46U-P-F is the portrait-orientation variant of Planar's Clarity Matrix G3 46-inch video wall panel. The G3 generation advances the platform with Leyard WallDirector software for streamlined commissioning and monitoring, Planar Big Picture Plus processing for 4K-at-60Hz input handling and cross-wall scaling, and hot-swappable redundant power supplies to eliminate single points of failure. Off-board electronics keep depth, heat, and weight at the video wall face to a minimum while simplifying service access. The flat EasyAxis mounting system is included, enabling fine X/Y/Z panel-to-panel adjustments after installation to achieve the sub-millimeter alignment that portrait video walls demand. ERO (Extended Ruggedness and Optics) optically-bonded glass is available as an option for public-contact or touch-enabled configurations.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the "-P-F" suffix indicate?
- "P" designates portrait orientation configuration and "F" indicates the Planar EasyAxis flat mounting system is included with the unit. This differentiates it from landscape (L) and VESA (V) mounting variants.
- Is the EasyAxis mounting hardware sufficient for a multi-panel portrait video wall?
- Yes. The EasyAxis system provides three-axis micro-adjustment after panels are hung, enabling the sub-millimeter panel-to-panel alignment required for seamless portrait video wall arrays. It is engineered specifically for Clarity Matrix and is included in the purchase price.
- How does the off-board electronics design benefit the installation?
- The signal processing and power electronics are housed in a remote enclosure rather than directly behind each display. This reduces the installed depth at the wall face, lowers heat output at the display, and means that service work (swapping electronics) does not require removing panels from the wall.
- Can ERO glass be retrofitted after purchase?
- ERO (Extended Ruggedness and Optics) is an optically-bonded glass front that must be factory-configured. It cannot be field-added to a standard LX46U-P-F. If ERO is required, specify the LX46HDS-P-ERO variant at time of order.
- What is the maximum video wall size supported?
- Clarity Matrix G3 supports video wall configurations up to the limits of the WallDirector software and connected processing hardware. Common deployments range from 2x2 to 6x6 arrays; larger custom configurations are available through Planar's professional services team.
