Planar VX2.6: 2.604 mm pitch, 500 by 500 mm cabinet.
Cabinet geometry, weight, and power for the Planar VX2.6, plus a calculator that turns a target wall size into cabinet counts, resolution, weight, and circuit loading.
Estimated specs. On-camera/VX preset. Verify exact generation. Verify against the manufacturer cut sheet before ordering.
Pixel pitch 2.604 mm, 36,864 pixels per cabinet at 192 by 192
Cabinet 500 by 500 mm (1.64 by 1.64 ft)
4.5 kg (9.9 lb) per cabinet, about 18 kg per square metre
140 W peak per cabinet, 47 W average, about 560 W per square metre at peak
13 cabinets per 20A 120V circuit, 21 per 16A 230V circuit, at peak draw
The Planar VX2.6 is indoor 2.604 mm pitch LED with a 500 by 500 mm cabinet carrying 192 by 192 pixels. Each cabinet weighs 4.5 kg (9.9 lb) and draws up to 140 W.
Those four numbers drive everything else on a build: how many cabinets reach your target size, what the wall weighs on the rigging, how many circuits the distro needs, and what resolution the processor has to feed.
Pixel pitch: 2.604 mm
Cabinet resolution: 192 by 192 (36,864 pixels)
Cabinet size: 500 by 500 mm
Brightness: 1000 nits
Refresh rate: 3840 Hz
Typical processor platform: Novastar
Power and circuits for the VX2.6
At the 140 W peak figure, one 20A 120V circuit carries 13 cabinets and one 16A 230V circuit carries 21. Both numbers apply the 80 percent continuous load derate (NEC 210.20, IEC 60364), which is the same maths WireFlow uses when it sizes a real wall.
Size the distro on peak, not average. Average draw of 47 W tells you what the wall costs to run over a show; peak is what trips a breaker during a white flash.
Peak per cabinet: 140 W
Average per cabinet: 47 W
Cabinets per 20A 120V circuit: 13
Cabinets per 16A 230V circuit: 21
Input voltage: 100 to 240 V at 50/60 Hz
Worked example: a 4 by 3 wall
12 Planar VX2.6 cabinets in a 4 wide by 3 high grid make a wall 2 by 1.5 m (6.56 by 4.92 ft) at 768 by 576 pixels.
That wall weighs about 54 kg before rigging hardware and draws up to 1,680 W, which needs 1 circuit at 20A 120V or 1 at 16A 230V.
Wall size: 2 by 1.5 m
Resolution: 768 by 576 pixels
Weight: about 54 kg
Peak draw: 1,680 W
Circuits: 1 at 20A 120V, 1 at 16A 230V
Build this wall in WireFlow
The calculator above sizes a wall to your target dimensions with this panel's real cabinet geometry, then reports cabinet count, resolution, weight, and circuits. From there WireFlow can drop the finished wall straight into a diagram, already wired to its processors, and the cable schedule and power report update with it.

Frequently asked questions
What is the pixel pitch of the Planar VX2.6?
2.604 mm. Each 500 by 500 mm cabinet carries 192 by 192 pixels, or 36,864 in total.
How much power does the Planar VX2.6 draw?
Up to 140 W per cabinet at peak, averaging around 47 W in normal content. That works out to roughly 560 W per square metre at peak. Size distro on the peak figure.
How many VX2.6 cabinets fit on one circuit?
13 on a 20A 120V circuit and 21 on a 16A 230V circuit, both at peak draw with the standard 80 percent continuous load derate applied.
How much does the Planar VX2.6 weigh?
4.5 kg (9.9 lb) per cabinet, which is about 18 kg per square metre of wall. A 4 by 3 wall of them comes to roughly 54 kg before rigging hardware.
Are these Planar specs exact?
Estimated specs. On-camera/VX preset. Verify exact generation. Verify against the manufacturer cut sheet before ordering.
Can I design a wall with this panel in WireFlow?
Yes. Pick this panel, give it a target size, and WireFlow works out the cabinet grid, pixel map, weight, and power per circuit, then places the wall into your diagram already wired to its processors. Free to start with three diagrams and no card.
