The NovaStar H Series video wall splicers provide modular video processing and LED control for fine-pitch displays. This listing covers H2, H5, H9, H15 and H20 chassis. Select the chassis and input/output cards together: the installed cards determine connectivity, loading capacity and supported video formats.
H2, H5, H9, H15 and H20 comparison
The table preserves the original listing values. Capacity figures describe a configured chassis, not the capacity of the quoted single sending card. See the H20 correction note below before selecting cards.
| Model | Max. input channels | Max. output channels | Originally listed load | Dimensions (mm) | Net weight |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| H2 | 16 | 8 | 20.8 million pixels | 482.6 × 529.8 × 88.1 | 11 kg |
| H5 | 40 | 12 | 31.2 million pixels | 482.6 × 532.8 × 228.2 | 17 kg |
| H9 | 60 | 20 | 52 million pixels | 482.6 × 533.0 × 405.8 | 27.2 kg |
| H15 | 120 | 40 | 104 million pixels | 482.6 × 683.0 × 533.0 | 41.1 kg |
| H20 | 160 | 80 | 260 million pixels — sending-card mismatch in original listing; see below | 482.6 × 533.0 × 905.2 | 47.7 kg |
H20 capacity clarification: The original text grouped all capacities under H_16xRJ45+2xfiber. The linked H20 V1.6.0 specification instead lists 208 million pixels for that card configuration and 260 million for H_20xRJ45. A single H_16xRJ45+2xfiber card is rated up to 10.4 million pixels. Do not apply the 260-million figure to the single-card configuration quoted here.
Card configuration and video processing
The FPGA-based design accepts modular, hot-swappable input and output cards. The original listing includes HDMI, DVI, DP and IP inputs, 10-bit source processing and 4K input/output support. Its listed single-slot modes are four 1920 × 1080 at 60 Hz channels, two 3840 × 1080 at 60 Hz channels or one 4096 × 2160 at 60 Hz channel. The IP-camera input is listed up to 3840 × 2160 at 30 Hz. These are card- and document-dependent specifications; newer cards may have different capabilities.
The H_16xRJ45+2xfiber sending card provides 16 Ethernet ports and two optical ports. In the linked specifications, the optical ports copy Ethernet output data. Confirm the required backup arrangement rather than treating copied outputs as additional independent capacity.
Multi-screen and web control
Manage screen resolutions, synchronized output mosaic, irregular rectangular layouts, layers, backgrounds and OSD. Input/output EDID management, source renaming, preview and online status monitoring support setup and operation. The system supports web access from Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and Linux, multi-user operation and online firmware updates.
Power and environment

H Series FAQ
What configuration does the listed price cover?
The original quotation basis is a chassis, an H_1xHDMI 2.0 input card and an H_16xRJ45+2xfiber sending card. Confirm the chassis model and card quantities; other configurations require a specific quotation.
How should I choose between H2, H5, H9, H15 and H20?
Compare required source channels, output channels, screen pixels and rack space. Then select the input and sending cards needed for those requirements. Chassis maximums do not mean every slot is populated in the quoted configuration.
Is H20 rated for 260 million pixels with H_16xRJ45+2xfiber?
The linked H20 V1.6.0 document specifies 208 million for that configuration. Its 260-million figure applies to H_20xRJ45 cards.
Do the optical ports increase the H_16xRJ45+2xfiber card capacity?
The two optical ports copy the Ethernet output data. They do not add a separate load beyond the card’s stated 10.4-million-pixel maximum.
Can H Series be controlled through a browser?
Yes. Web control supports the listed desktop and mobile platforms, with screen management, monitoring and multi-user access.
