Introduction
The MX6000 Pro is a large professional 8K LED display controller from Xi'an NovaStar Tech Co., Ltd. (hereinafter
referred to as NovaStar), designed as part of the COEX control system series. Its remarkable features include 12-
bit color depth, 480 Hz capability, real-time multi-screen scaling, 0-frame latency, and HDR supportability,
providing precise brightness control, true-to-life color fidelity, and an excellent image quality. Its card-based
modular design is specifically tailored for future LED displays, allowing for flexible input and output card
configurations that are stable and easy to maintain. With a compact 6U size, it supports up to 32x 4K@60Hz or
16x 8K@30Hz video inputs, with a maximum load capacity of 141 million pixels, making it ideal for large-screen
configurations.

The MX6000 Pro offers a wide range of options with up to 8 different input cards supporting 8K, 4K, and VoIP.
For output, it supports two types of output cards: 4x 10G fiber and 1x 40G fiber. These cards can be configured
flexibly to accommodate either 1G or 5G bandwidth for the control system, catering to different requirements.
Additionally, it supports seamless backup and automatic switching between devices, cards, and Ethernet ports. In
case of any malfunction, it promptly switches over while issuing automatic alerts, ensuring stable output on-site.
To further enhance the user experience, it is complemented by the advanced control software, VMP, enabling
users to have better control and management capabilities.

The MX6000 Pro offers many advantages such as highly integrated design, premium image quality, powerful
performance, tremendous load capacity, and easy control. It is widely used in rental services for large events,
xR/VP studios, large fixed installation applications, TV production, e-sports events, exhibition halls, and other
application scenarios.

Applications
Solution Build
Based on the installed output cards (4x10G fiber output card/1x40G fiber output card), users can build 1G/5G
solutions with different models of fiber converters and receiving cards. 1G/5G refers to the output bandwidth of a
single Ethernet port. For more detailed information, please refer to Ethernet Port Load Capacity.

5G Solution 1x40G fiber output card CVT8-5G 5G receiving cards such as CA50E

Note:

You can install different output cards on the same controller, but output cards with different models cannot be
used to load the same screen.

Notes and Cautions

Notes for Battery

 The battery is not intended to be replaced.

 Disposal of a battery into fire or a hot oven, or mechanically crushing or cutting of a battery can result in an
explosion.

 Leaving a battery in an extremely high temperature surrounding environment can result in an explosion or
the leakage of flammable liquid or gas.

 A battery subjected to extremely low air pressure may result in an explosion or the leakage of flammable
liquid or gas.

Notes for Installation

The product can be mounted in a standard 19-inch rack capable of withstanding at least four times the total
weight of the mounted equipment. Eight M5 screws are required to fix the product.

 Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient
temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should
be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature
(Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

 Reduced Air Flow – Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

 Mechanical Loading – Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is
not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

www.novastar.tech 24
 MX6000 Pro LED Display Controller Specifications

 Circuit Overloading – Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit
and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

 Reliable Earthing – Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention
should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g. use of power
strips).

FCC Caution

Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the
user's authority to operate the equipment.

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This
device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation.

Note: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to
part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference
when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate
radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause
harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.

Others

 This product can only be placed horizontally. Do not mount vertically or upside-down.

 This is Class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference in which case
the user may be required to take adequate measures.
