What Are LED Digital Signs?
LED digital signs, also known as electronic message boards, digital displays, outdoor billboards, or information boards, are an advanced solution for delivering dynamic and engaging content. At LAN Display, we understand that selecting the right display for your needs requires more than just product knowledge. That’s why we’re here to guide you through the process and ensure you make an informed decision with confidence.
Whether you need a wall-mounted, freestanding, or integrated display, LED digital signs offer outstanding performance and adaptability. These signs excel in various applications, including outdoor advertising, public information, retail signage, and sports venues. Although LED displays are highly technical, with proper guidance, choosing the right display becomes simple and stress-free.
While some manufacturers may overwhelm you with technical jargon, LAN Display focuses on clear, practical communication. We prioritize what matters most: performance, reliability, and ease of use. Below are the essential elements you need to understand when considering an LED digital sign for your business.
LED (Light Emitting Diode)
At the core of every LED digital sign is the light-emitting diode (LED), a powerful and energy-efficient light source. Unlike incandescent bulbs, LEDs don’t burn out because they lack fragile filaments. LAN Display only uses top-tier single-bin LEDs, ensuring uniform brightness and color across every inch of the display.
Our displays undergo precise calibration to maintain consistent image quality over time. Proper calibration ensures that the colors stay vibrant and accurate, avoiding the “quilted” appearance that can develop in lower-quality displays. With our LED technology, your content will look as sharp years from now as it does on the first day.
Pixel Pitch
Pixel pitch is a critical factor in determining image quality and clarity. Measured in millimeters, pixel pitch refers to the distance between individual pixels on the LED display. Smaller pitches, such as 2.5mm or 3.9mm, allow for higher resolution and sharper images, making these displays ideal for close-range viewing in areas with heavy foot traffic.
For larger spaces or displays that are elevated, such as 6mm or 10mm models, a wider pixel pitch is often preferred. These displays perform exceptionally well when viewed from a distance, making them ideal for outdoor applications along highways or in sports arenas.
Matrix
The matrix refers to the number of pixels arranged horizontally and vertically on a display. Even two displays with the same physical size can have different matrices depending on their pixel pitch. For instance, a 3.9mm display will feature more pixels—and therefore offer higher resolution—than a 6mm display of the same size.
A larger matrix provides crisper graphics, smoother text, and high-definition video performance, ensuring your content looks professional and engaging at all times. The right matrix size helps you convey complex information, such as event schedules or detailed advertisements, with clarity.
Viewing Distance
The optimal viewing distance is the point where individual pixels blend seamlessly to form a smooth image. LED displays with tighter pitches, such as 2.5mm models, are ideal for close viewing distances in areas like shopping malls, retail spaces, and exhibition booths. These displays allow viewers to enjoy high-definition visuals up close.
Displays with wider pixel pitches, such as 6mm or 10mm, are more suitable for long-distance viewing. Whether placed on elevated structures, along highways, or in stadiums, these models ensure your message remains clear and visible even from far away.
Viewing Angle and Reading Angle
Our LED digital signs feature wide horizontal viewing angles, ensuring visibility from multiple perspectives. At LAN Display, our models offer 140° horizontal viewing angles, meaning your content will remain bright and readable even at 70° from the center. This ensures that viewers from different positions can engage with your display effectively.
Vertical viewing angles are equally important, especially for elevated installations. To enhance visibility from below, we incorporate louvers that prevent unnecessary light spill and focus the brightness toward the audience. This design ensures that your content is always legible and clear, even under challenging viewing conditions.
In addition, the reading angle represents the angle at which people can comfortably read the display content. This angle is usually broader than the viewing angle and may vary based on environmental lighting and the placement of the display.
