Introduction
At the summit of the UAE’s professional LED display requirements — the national operations centres managing the Emirates’ critical infrastructure, the mega-scale government ceremonial and broadcast environments producing content for hundreds of millions of viewers, the ultra-large fine-pitch LED video walls of landmark architectural and institutional environments, the most ambitious stadium and public venue LED systems in the region — there is a level of performance demand that only a truly large-format, enterprise-grade video wall splicer can serve.
The Novastar H15 is built for this level. The H15 is NovaStar’s newest generation of video wall splicer, featuring excellent image quality and designed especially for fine-pitch LED screens. The H15 can work as splicing processors that integrate both video processing and video control capabilities, or work as pure splicing processors. The whole unit adopts a modular and plug-in design, and allows for flexible configuration and hot swapping of input and output cards.
The H15 model operates within a 15U rack-mountable chassis, accommodates up to 30 input cards for 120 input channels and 10 output cards for 40 output channels, supports a maximum of 160 total layers, and provides a maximum loading capacity of 208 million pixels when equipped with the H_4xfibre enhanced sending card.
This is a controller whose specifications define a different category of professional LED display control — one where the pixel count, input channel capacity, layer architecture, and redundancy engineering are matched to the UAE’s most demanding, most prestigious, and most mission-critical display environments.
At My7Screen, we supply, configure, and support the Novastar H15 across the UAE — delivering the modular configuration expertise, professional installation capability, and comprehensive after-sales commitment that the Emirates’ largest and most demanding LED display projects require.
What Is the Novastar H15?
The NovaStar H15 is positioned as a high-end video wall splicer within NovaStar’s H-Series — intended for large and complex LED display systems, not for small single-screen setups, but targeting projects with high pixel capacity and multi-screen layouts in professional environments requiring centralised video management, flexible configuration, and stable operation over long periods of time.
In a complete LED video wall system, the H15 acts as the central processing node that connects video sources, system control, and LED sending devices. Video signals from different sources — computers, media players, cameras, or broadcast equipment — enter the H15 through its input cards. The H15 then handles video processing tasks such as scaling, cropping, and layer composition inside the splicer, allowing different content sources to be combined or arranged before they are sent to the LED displays.
Based on the powerful hardware FPGA system architecture, with a modular and plug-in design, the H15 features a stable and highly efficient pure hardware architecture, and provides a variety of connector modules for flexible and personalised configuration, allowing for easy maintenance and low failure rate. The H15 provides the industry-standard input connectors, including HDMI, DVI, DP, VGA, CVBS, SDI, and IP, and supports 10-bit video source input and processing, as well as 4K high-definition inputs and outputs.
