Planar Mantis 2.6mm Indoor Rental LED Cabinet

Product Overview

The Planar Mantis 2.6mm indoor LED cabinet is a rental and staging video wall panel engineered for fast, single-operator deployment. It is built on a 500x500mm cabinet holding a 2x2 module array, driven by a Brompton R2+ receiver card and powered by a single power supply. The magnesium alloy construction is lightweight and rigid for repeated transport and quick rigging. This cabinet targets live production, broadcast, and virtual production environments where setup speed and camera-ready performance are essential.

Product Description

Planar Mantis is a family of versatile, high-performance rental LED video walls offering 1.5, 1.9, and 2.6mm pixel pitches with tool-less setup and maintenance. This 2.6mm model uses a 500x500mm cabinet with a 2x2 module array and is driven by a Brompton R2+ receiver card, pairing the cabinet with one of the most widely deployed processing ecosystems in live events and broadcast. A single power supply per cabinet keeps the power topology simple for fast staging builds. The lightweight magnesium alloy construction provides strength and rigidity that help maintain image integrity across a tiled array while improving handling, and the series is designed for simplified single-operator setup. The Mantis Series delivers reliable, camera-ready performance for on-camera applications including broadcast and virtual production, where refresh rate and image stability under camera capture are critical. The 2.6mm pitch is available in both 500x500mm and 500x1000mm cabinet sizes within the series, giving integrators flexibility in array geometry. Tool-less assembly and maintenance reduce turnaround time between shows, a core requirement for rental and staging operators. Browse the full Planar Mantis and LED lineup in our Planar collection.
