Outdoor LED Video Walls: What You Need to Know Before Your Next Build

Outdoor LED displays do more than advertise — they captivate. But choosing the right product for the job isn’t just about size; it’s about durability, brightness, and overall engineering.

Here’s what to consider:

✅ Weatherproofing & IP Rating

Outdoor displays need sealed components. Look for IP65 or higher to prevent water and dust infiltration.

✅ High Brightness (5,000+ nits)

Outdoor LEDs demand sun-readable brightness, especially for midday visibility.

✅ Wide Viewing Angles

Whether mounted on a building or freestanding, viewers will see it from different angles — choose at least 140° H/V viewing.

✅ Pixel Pitch & Distance

Use larger pitch (e.g., P5–P10) for long-distance displays (highways, stadiums). Smaller pitch for plazas or pedestrian zones.

✅ Structural Engineering

Outdoor walls require wind-load calculations, load-bearing mounts, and certified installation.

SSI Displays builds custom outdoor LED video walls engineered to thrive in sun, rain, wind, and snow — with options for front/rear service, automatic brightness control, and remote monitoring.
