The NovaStar VX400 Pro is an all-in-one LED video controller that combines video processing and LED screen control. It drives up to 2.6 million pixels through four Gigabit Ethernet outputs and accepts HDMI 2.0 input up to 4096 × 2160 at 60 Hz. It suits rental stages, presentation systems and fine-pitch LED walls within its loading limits.
At a glance: 4 Ethernet outputs · 2 optical ports · 6 × 2K × 1K layer resources · 256 presets · USB media playback. A 4K input does not mean a full 4K LED output canvas.

| Video inputs | 1 × HDMI 2.0 with loop; 2 × HDMI 1.3; 1 × 3G-SDI with loop; self-adaptive OPT 1; USB 3.0 media playback |
| LED outputs | 4 × Gigabit Ethernet; 2 × optical ports with mode-dependent input, output, copy or backup operation |
| Monitoring and audio | HDMI 1.3 monitor output; 3.5 mm audio input and output |
| Layer resources | 6 × 2K × 1K; larger layers consume multiple resources |
| Control | Front panel, NovaLCT, Unico and VICP app |
| Working modes | Video controller, fiber converter and ByPass |
Will the VX400 Pro fit your LED screen?
Start with the screen’s actual pixel resolution, rather than its physical dimensions. Multiply pixel width by pixel height, then check port allocation, receiving cards, frame rate, bit depth and the chosen topology.
- 1920 × 1080 = 2,073,600 pixels: below the nominal device limit; the port layout still needs checking.
- 1920 × 1200 = 2,304,000 pixels: below the nominal total limit; check the complete port map.
- 2560 × 1024 = 2,621,440 pixels: exceeds the 2.6-million-pixel limit, even though it is close.
- 3840 × 2160 = 8,294,400 pixels: above the limit for one VX400 Pro, even though the controller accepts a 4K source.
The width and height limits are separate constraints. They do not describe a 10,240 × 8,192 output canvas. Ask EagerLED to check the complete screen map before ordering.
Processing features and configuration limits
Layers, scaling and presets
Arrange content using adjustable layer position, size and priority. The six layer resources are not six independent 4K layers: a 4K × 2K layer uses four 2K resources, while a 4K × 1K layer uses two. Full-screen, pixel-to-pixel and custom scaling support different content layouts.
Latency, topology and backup
Zero-frame device latency requires both low latency and ByPass mode. ByPass disables video processing, so this is not a zero-latency claim for every operating mode. Free topology requires compatible receiving cards. Device, source and port backup functions also need an appropriate system configuration.
Playback and image adjustment
USB playback provides a local media source. Test the intended media files on the installed firmware before a live event. Brightness, color adjustment and pixel-level brightness and chroma calibration help configure the display; calibration also depends on the receiving-card and software setup.
VX400 Pro vs VX600 Pro vs VX1000 Pro
| Model | Ethernet outputs | Maximum pixels |
|---|---|---|
| VX400 Pro | 4 | 2.6 million |
| VX600 Pro | 6 | 3.9 million |
| VX1000 Pro | 10 | 6.5 million |
Choose by pixel count and port layout first. If your project exceeds 2.6 million pixels, compare a higher-capacity model or a multi-controller design rather than assuming that input resolution increases output capacity.
Frequently asked questions
Can the VX400 Pro drive a native 3840 × 2160 LED wall?
No. That LED wall contains 8,294,400 pixels, above the 2.6-million-pixel output capacity of one VX400 Pro. A supported 4K input can be scaled for a smaller LED canvas; it does not increase the output pixel budget.
How much can each Ethernet port load?
NovaStar specifies up to 650,000 pixels per Ethernet output at 8-bit output. Confirm the intended frame rate, bit depth, receiving cards and cabinet map; staying below the device total alone does not establish a valid port layout.
Are optical modules included?
Optical modules are not factory-installed. Specify the required modules separately and confirm fiber type, transmission distance and compatible equipment in your quotation.
Is the VX400 Pro interchangeable with the VX400?
They are different models. Confirm the exact Pro model, input connectors, receiving-card configuration and required processing functions before replacing an existing controller. Use firmware and documentation for the exact device.
What is the VX400 Pro price?
