Unique Architecture and Benets by Design
Designed and developed by video wall industry experts, the third generation Clarity Matrix G3 LCD Video Wall System addresses the
challenges faced by all video wall installations including: mounting and alignment, reliability and extended operation, service and maintenance
access and simple, eective image processing and management.
At the heart of Clarity Matrix G3 is a distributed design that takes heat, complexity and potential points-of-failure o the LCD display and
places it with a centrally located, easily accessible and highly reliable rack-mounted system.

Simplied Design, Installation and Service
Designing, installing and servicing an LCD video wall has never been easier with Clarity Matrix G3. The architecture is focused on eliminating
compatibility and integrity concerns, as well as eliminating costs associated with long distance cable extenders and AC power outlets behind
the video wall. Fewer cables are necessary to run to the video wall, simplifying and reducing the cost of the system.
Service Mode for
in-wall servicing
Architecture Advantages:
• Integrated video and power extension up to 200 feet (60 meters)
• Rack-mount components can be co-located with sources and processing equipment for easy
serviceability and no disruption at the video wall
• No third-party long-distance extenders or cables needed
• Entire video wall is controlled with a single remote control, RS-232 or LAN device, including
third-party control system
• Power and video looping between panels for minimizing long-distance cable runs
• No AC outlets required behind the displays
Perfect Alignment
The Clarity Matrix G3 LCD Video Wall System includes the Planar EasyAxis Mounting System with built-in precision alignment capabilities,
an in-wall service position and an industry-leading total installation depth as small as 3.6" (91mm). As a result, Clarity Matrix G3 has the
thinnest footprint of any LCD video wall, making it compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirement for protruding
objects of less than four inches. Planar EasyAxis adjustment cams facilitate precise 6-axis alignment ensuring uniform, minimized imageto-image gap.

Advanced Video Wall Processing
Clarity Matrix G3 delivers extensive and exible video wall processing options to display sources on the video wall. With Planar® Big Picture
Plus™ Video Wall Processing, Clarity Matrix G3 allows sources to be scaled across the entire video wall or any section of the video wall. To
simplify Planar Big Picture Plus set-up, Clarity Matrix G3 has position sensors built into the LCD that determine its location within the array
and scale the sources across the video wall, saving hours of set-up time.
Planar Big Picture Plus Processing allows for ultra-high resolution content up to 4K to spread over multiple displays at native resolution. For
more complex congurations, Clarity Matrix G3 supports all leading image processing and digital signage software solutions including the
Clarity® VCS™ Video Wall Processor.
Solving a range of video wall genlock and synchronization challenges, Clarity Matrix G3 includes Planar® WallSync™ genlock technology.
Planar WallSync uses Smart Genlock to automatically ensure perfectly synchronized video playback without manual conguration.

Mission Critical Design
The unique architecture of Clarity Matrix G3 provides
a mission-critical design with hot-swappable redundant
Remote Power Supply Modules, redundant AC input
circuitry, reduced thermal stress and health and status
monitoring capabilities. Clarity Matrix G3 adds n+1 hot
swapping capabilities with the Planar® Remote Power
Supply so in the event of failure, the video wall remains
operational without disruption.

For government and military customers delivering highly
sensitive information, the Fiber Video Extension option
provides a more secure and longer distance option for
extending the video signal from Clarity Matrix G3 o-
board electronics to Clarity Matrix G3 displays.
Fits standard 19" rack
Planar WallDirector Software
Clarity Matrix G3 leverages Planar® WallDirector™ Software— a
new intuitive and powerful software tool to simplify installation,
conguration and operation of your video wall.
The Planar WallDirector Software allows users to:
• Set-up & congure a video wall
• Monitor the health & status of all video wall components from a
convenient, centralized location
• Send customized email or SNMP alerts to select people when
specic fault conditions arise
• Store & recall windowing layouts via simple, one-button presets
• Drag & drop video wall canvas, for window positioning & sizing
