Who Is the NovaStar MSD300 For?
The MSD300 is designed for LED display installers, system integrators, rental-screen operators and maintenance teams that need a dependable NovaStar sending card with DVI input. It can be used in indoor or outdoor LED display systems when paired with compatible NovaStar receiving cards and the correct screen configuration.
The MSD300 is a sending card, not a receiving card or standalone video processor. Before ordering, confirm the receiving-card family, cabinet wiring, required pixel load and software or firmware compatibility for your LED screen.
