Sentinel

Sentinel is our all-in-one LED video controller for small-to-medium displays with simple inputs — a video splicer, processor, and controller in a single 2RU unit. Supporting displays up to 4K resolution with 8.8 million pixels of output capacity, Sentinel delivers refined processing without the complexity of larger systems.

Sentinel drives displays up to 4K resolution — 8.8 million pixels — through 16 gigabit RJ45 output ports. That capacity covers the conference room walls, lobby displays, retail installations, and briefing rooms that make up most LED projects, all from one compact controller.

Sentinel accepts the standard professional range: HDMI 2.0 with loop-through, DisplayPort 1.2, dual 3G-SDI, and four DL-DVI inputs. Full 4K input capability supports UltraHD sources, so modern content arrives at the display exactly as produced.

Yes — Sentinel supports HDR image processing and transmission alongside its UltraHD capability, preserving the extended contrast and color of HDR content from source to display. Paired with an HDR-capable LED wall, the full dynamic range survives the signal chain.

Yes to both — Sentinel scales sources to fit the display, and includes genlock I/O for synchronizing with cameras and broadcast infrastructure. Control connections include LAN, USB, and RS-232 for integration with room automation systems.

Yes — Sentinel is TAA compliant and eligible for U.S. government procurement, serving briefing rooms, offices, and small operations displays across government and military facilities. Paired with our TAA display lines, complete compliant systems assemble from a single source.

Sentinel occupies just 2RU in a standard 19-inch rack at 14.7 inches deep — compact enough for the credenza racks and small equipment closets typical of conference rooms and mid-size installations, while drawing a maximum of only 70 watts.

Sentinel options include a light sensor for automatic brightness adjustment — matching display output to room conditions throughout the day — and a multi-function card supporting various sensors for expanded environmental integration.

Sentinel is managed through a web-based interface accessible from any computer on the network — configuration, source selection, and display settings all handled through the browser with no dedicated software to install. LAN, USB, and RS-232 connections integrate Sentinel with room control and automation systems.

Choose Sentinel when the display is 4K or smaller and the source list is straightforward: a conference room wall, lobby display, house of worship screen, or briefing room. When displays grow past 4K or inputs multiply into complex mixed walls, our card-and-chassis controllers take over.
