A 26-foot LED strip that turns the corner

Published

A technology company’s new showroom in the San Francisco Bay Area had a long recess framed across its main wall and round one corner, made for a screen. We filled it with P1.9 LED and set up the controller, a media server, iPad control and ceiling sound, in three days on site. The showroom staff choose what plays from an iPad.

In November 2026 PixelPro Productions supplied and installed a two-section P1.9 LED wall in a technology company’s showroom in the San Francisco Bay Area: an 8 × 1.5 m (26.2 × 4.9 ft) strip of 48 cabinets along the main wall and a 1.5 × 1.5 m (4.9 × 4.9 ft) section of 9 cabinets round the corner, set into a recess the showroom’s builders had framed. Both sections run on one NovaStar MX30, fed by a Hirender S3 media server, and the staff switch content from an iPad over the system’s own Wi-Fi router. We also supplied the sound, a JBL amplifier and 8-inch ceiling speakers, and trained the staff at handover. We were brought in by the client’s media agency.

The brief

The showroom’s builders had already framed a long recess for the screen, across the main wall and round one corner, with a trim line above and below. The screen had to fill it.

The people who run the showroom needed to change what plays themselves.

How we built it 01

Sized to the recess

We checked the recess with a laser level before the first cabinet went up.

The cabinets are 500 mm square, so the screen is a whole number of them: 16 × 3 along the main wall, 3 × 3 round the corner.

Two sections, sized to the frame the builders made.

How we built it 02

Two sections, one corner

The cabinets started in the corner on the first afternoon and ran along the main wall from there.

One NovaStar MX30 drives both sections, so they can carry one picture round the corner or two different ones.

Both sections on one controller.

How we built it 03

Modules from the front

Each cabinet takes four 250 mm modules, fitted from the front. The cabinets were lit while the modules went on, so a dead or mismatched module shows straight away.

Spare modules and the suction tool that lifts a module off the front stay in the showroom.

Serviced from the front, with spares on site.

Run from an iPad

Content plays from a Hirender S3 media server into the MX30. The staff pick what plays from an iPad, over a Wi-Fi router that belongs to the system.

The JBL amplifier and the 8-inch ceiling speakers play the sound with the video. We set the system up and trained the staff before handover.

No technician needed to change what is on the wall.

The result

  • Three days on site, from an empty recess to a lit wall the showroom staff run themselves.

Control and sound like this are part of our AV system integration work.

Questions about showroom LED walls

Can an LED wall turn a corner?

Yes. In a technology company’s showroom in the San Francisco Bay Area, PixelPro installed an 8 × 1.5 m P1.9 LED strip along the main wall and a 1.5 × 1.5 m section round the corner, meeting at the corner of a framed recess, both driven by one NovaStar MX30.

Can showroom staff change what plays on an LED wall themselves?

Yes. In a Bay Area technology showroom PixelPro set up a Hirender S3 media server feeding a NovaStar MX30, with an iPad on the system’s own Wi-Fi router, so the staff choose what plays without a technician. We trained them at handover.

How long does a showroom LED wall take to install?

For a Bay Area technology showroom PixelPro spent three days on site, November 3–5, 2026: 57 cabinets of P1.9 LED into a recess the builders had framed, plus a NovaStar MX30, a Hirender S3 media server, iPad control and ceiling speakers.
