Colorlight X16E-3D LED Controller Overview
The Colorlight X16E-3D is a video processor and LED display controller for managing source inputs and sending images to an LED screen. If you are searching for a Colorlight X16E controller, check the model suffix: this listing is for the X16E-3D. Use the specifications below to match the controller to your source equipment, screen layout and 3D requirements.
Key Specifications

| LED outputs | 16 Gigabit Ethernet ports (RJ45) |
| Rated loading capacity | 10.48 million pixels |
| Maximum screen dimensions | Width up to 16,384 pixels or height up to 8,192 pixels |
| Windows | Up to 6, with adjustable size and position |
| Control | Front panel, LAN, app and RS232 |
| Audio | Separate input/output; HDMI and DP audio extraction |
| 3D | 3D emitter connection; active shutter glasses used for viewing |
Screen planning: maximum width and height are separate limits, not a 16,384 × 8,192 operating canvas. Keep the total pixel count within the applicable capacity and confirm the port allocation, receiving cards and operating mode before installation.
Video Processing and Screen Control
Source switching, cropping, splicing and scaling help adapt incoming video to the screen layout. Color management, gamut adjustment, brightness and color-temperature controls support image setup. Video synchronization and HDCP support are also listed in the datasheet.
Before choosing the controller, prepare your source resolution and refresh rate, the screen’s pixel width and height, and the number of independently positioned windows you need. This makes it easier to check the complete signal path rather than choosing from an input resolution alone.
3D Setup and Compatibility
Plan 3D as a complete system: source equipment, controller, LED screen, compatible emitter and active shutter glasses must work together. Confirm accessory inclusion and compatibility before ordering. The published headline pixel capacity should not be assumed to apply unchanged to every 3D or high-frame-rate configuration.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the Colorlight X16E or X16E-3D?
This product is the X16E-3D. For a replacement installation, compare the exact model label and connections with your existing unit before purchase.
Does 4K input mean every connected screen must be 4K?
No. Input resolution describes the source signal. Choose the output layout for your actual LED screen and check its pixel count, port mapping and receiving-card compatibility.
What information should I send for a compatibility check?
Send the screen resolution, cabinet layout, receiving-card model, source connector and timing, plus whether you need 2D or 3D operation. Contact our team with these details before ordering, or browse LED receiving cards for the rest of your system.
Conclusion
The X16E-3D is a candidate for projects requiring multiple video inputs, flexible screen layouts and a 3D signal path. Select it against the exact screen and source requirements, and verify the complete configuration before purchase.
