Colorlight X4e is a professional LED video processor and controller for LED display projects. It combines multiple video inputs with four Gigabit Ethernet outputs, so an installer can select and scale a source and send the mapped image to compatible Colorlight receiving cards.
Colorlight X4e at a glance
- LED loading capacity: up to 2.6 million pixels across four Gigabit Ethernet outputs.
- Canvas limits: maximum width of 4096 pixels or maximum height of 4096 pixels, subject to the total pixel capacity.
- Video inputs: 2 SDI inputs, 1 DP, 1 HDMI with loop output, and 1 DVI with loop output.
- Processing: source switching and scaling, plus a three-picture layout with adjustable position and size.
- Control: USB configuration and controller cascading; Genlock input and loop output for synchronization.

What can the X4e do?
The X4e switches among supported digital sources and scales the selected video for the LED canvas. Its three-picture mode lets an operator position and resize three images on one screen. Brightness and chromaticity adjustments and improved grayscale at low brightness support display tuning. The specification lists HDCP 1.4 support.
For synchronized installations, Genlock input and loop output help keep display images aligned. The USB IN connection is used for PC configuration, while USB OUT allows cascading to the next controller. Check the receiving-card setup and cabinet mapping before installation; the 4096-pixel dimension limit does not mean a 4096 × 4096 LED canvas is supported.
Common questions
How many Ethernet outputs does the Colorlight X4e have?
It has four Gigabit Ethernet RJ45 outputs and a total LED loading capacity of up to 2.6 million pixels.
Which video connections are available?
The X4e provides two 1080p SDI inputs, plus DP, HDMI and DVI inputs. The HDMI and DVI connections include loop outputs. Supported input resolution reaches 1920 × 1200 at 60 Hz.
Is the X4e a 4K LED canvas controller?
No 4K LED canvas capacity is specified. The documented loading limit is 2.6 million pixels, with a maximum width or height of 4096 pixels. Plan the screen against both limits.
Conclusion
Choose the Colorlight X4e when an LED wall needs multiple digital source inputs, four Gigabit outputs, scaling and flexible multi-picture control within a 2.6 million pixel load. Review the specification and user manual below for wiring and configuration details.
