The NovaStar VX400 Pro has 4 1G Ethernet ports, and 2 fibre outputs that copy them. At 8-bit and 60 Hz a port carries 650,000 pixels and the unit 2.6 million. It outputs 8-bit only. One unit outputs an image up to 10,240 × 8,192 pixels. On 500 mm P2.6 panels (192 × 192) that is 17 panels a port and 68 a unit, up to a 11 × 6 wall (18'-0 9/16" × 9'-10 1/8", 2112 × 1152).
| Bit depth | Per port | Per unit | P2.6 panels a port | P2.9 panels a port | P3.9 panels a port | P2.6 panels a unit |

From NovaStar's VX400 Pro V1.4.0 datasheet. A figure the sheet prints at a bit depth is used as printed; one printed only at 8-bit is rescaled by the bits a pixel takes on the wire, and frame rate scales it linearly. The unit's total is the smaller of its ports added up and its stated maximum. Panels a port are whole 500 × 500 mm panels; a dash means the unit does not take that bit depth.
