Product Overview
The Planar DirectLight Pro UHD 164 LED video wall is a fine pixel pitch indoor display system purpose-built for permanent commercial installations requiring 4K image quality at large-format scale. At 164 inches diagonal, this system delivers UHD resolution across a display footprint appropriate for boardrooms, executive briefing centers, and corporate all-hands environments where visual impact and image accuracy both matter. TAA-compliant for federal and institutional procurement eligibility, the system supports Planar WallDirector VC as well as Brompton Technology and Colorlight processors, providing integrators with broad signal processing flexibility. The front-serviceable panel architecture minimizes service disruption in operational spaces where extended downtime is not acceptable.
Product Description
The Planar DirectLight Pro Series UHD 164-inch video wall is the preferred specification for AV system designers who need a high-density, large-format LED display that can be installed cleanly and maintained efficiently. The fine pixel pitch construction produces imagery that holds up at close viewing distances typical of corporate and government interior environments, where viewers may be seated as close as 10 to 15 feet from the display surface.

UHD output at the 164-inch scale means a 4K LED video wall system with pixel density suited to data-heavy presentations, real-time dashboards, and high-definition video content. The display architecture uses a high-bandwidth signal path that consolidates data distribution, reducing the physical cable infrastructure required across the installation zone.

As a TAA-compliant commercial indoor LED video wall, this system is available through federal procurement channels and is suitable for government agency projects, institutional campuses, and corporate environments with compliance-driven purchasing requirements. Front-serviceable access means maintenance is performed without rear clearance, an important consideration in architecturally finished spaces.

This listing represents the Planar DirectLight Pro UHD 164-inch complete video wall as a system-level offering. Contact Creation Networks for current bundle configuration details, accessory options, and project pricing tailored to your installation requirements.
