Product Overview
The Planar MX55HDU-v is a 55-inch Clarity Matrix G2 LCD video wall panel delivering 800-nit high brightness with VESA mount compatibility and TAA compliance for U.S. federal procurement.

The G2 platform delivers 4K input capability, 10-bit color processing, and Planar Big Picture Plus Video Wall Processing for sophisticated multi-source display management. Optional ERO protective glass and Fiber Video Extension accommodate both public-space and secure government installation requirements.
Product Description
The Planar MX55HDU-v 55-inch Clarity Matrix G2 VESA-compatible video wall panel combines the high-brightness performance of 800 nits with TAA compliance, making it one of the most versatile panels in the Clarity Matrix G2 lineup for government and commercial AV projects. The VESA mount configuration (MX55HDU-v) provides additional mounting flexibility for integration into custom video wall structures, recessed installations, or environments where standard Planar mounting hardware is not preferred. With a 1.7mm tiled bezel width, the near-seamless panel surface minimizes viewer distraction in monitoring and presentation environments. Planar Big Picture Plus Video Wall Processing supports 4K at 60Hz signal scaling across the full video wall, plus Picture-in-Picture and multi-window configurations with multiple independent sources. The 10-bit color processing engine delivers superior color depth and panel-to-panel uniformity, which is critical in large-scale arrays where color variation between tiles is visible to viewers. WallNet health monitoring software with SNMP integrates into enterprise network management systems for proactive status monitoring. Redundant hot-swap power supplies maintain display operation during power supply servicing, ensuring continuous 24/7 uptime. TAA compliance qualifies the MX55HDU-v for GSA Schedule purchasing and U.S. federal government contracts. SKU 997-9188-00 includes a 3-year limited warranty. Weight is approximately 57.32 lbs.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Is the MX55HDU-v TAA compliant?
- Yes. The MX55HDU-v is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) compliant, qualifying it for U.S. federal government purchasing through GSA Schedule contracts and other government procurement vehicles.
- What does the VESA mount configuration mean?
- The MX55HDU-v is configured with VESA-standard mounting points, providing flexibility for installation in custom video wall structures, third-party mounts, or recessed installations that may not use Planar's proprietary EasyAxis system.
- How does this panel differ from the MX55HDU-P?
- The MX55HDU-P is portrait-only orientation. The MX55HDU-v uses a VESA mount configuration and is TAA compliant, making it suitable for federal procurement where the portrait-only model may not qualify or fit the installation orientation requirement.
- What is the brightness advantage of 800 nits?
- 800-nit panels are engineered for environments with elevated ambient light. At 800 nits, the panel maintains strong contrast and readability under direct artificial lighting or near windows where 500-nit panels become difficult to read.
- What monitoring software is included?
- The MX55HDU-v integrates with Planar WallNet health and status monitoring software, which supports SNMP for integration with enterprise network management platforms.
- What is the shipping weight of the MX55HDU-v?
- The MX55HDU-v weighs approximately 57.32 lbs. Ensure installation teams account for this weight when planning mounting structures and lift equipment.
