At a glance
MSD600 Key Specifications
Higher-capacity MSD-series sender; verify exact specification
Loading/capacity reference for this exact model or family.
LED Output
Multiple Gigabit Ethernet outputs; verify exact board revision
Source / Input
Digital video sending-card architecture
| Specification | Model-specific information |
|---|---|
| Product class | Sending card, not a video processor |
| Search priority | Exact board revision, loading, outputs and replacement |
| Configuration | NovaLCT ecosystem |
| Replacement rule | Do not substitute MSD300/MSD600 solely by name; preserve receiving-card configuration |
Legacy or revision-sensitive products should be verified against the exact product label and manufacturer document before firmware updates, replacement or final engineering.

What Matters When Selecting MSD600
Engineering Selection
For MSD600, buyers usually need exact loading, source inputs, LED outputs, screen mapping and software compatibility before price becomes meaningful.
Legacy Replacement
For an existing screen, identify the current receiving cards and preserve configuration files before changing the sending controller.

|---|---|---|---|
| Role | LED sending card | PCI/standalone sending card | Independent LED controller |
| Lifecycle | Legacy / exact revision required | Documented legacy sending card | Documented legacy controller |
| Loading / capacity | Higher-capacity MSD-series sender; verify exact specification | 1.3 million pixels | 1920×1200@60Hz class |
| LED-side outputs | Multiple Gigabit Ethernet outputs; verify exact board revision | 2 × Gigabit Ethernet | 4 × Gigabit Ethernet |
| Inputs / source side | Digital video sending-card architecture | Single-link DVI + audio | DVI + HDMI 1.3 + audio |
The comparison is intended to show product role and generation differences. For legacy products with incomplete current documentation, exact specifications are intentionally not inferred from adjacent models.
Project checklist
Before Buying or Replacing MSD600
Screen Resolution
Record total width × height, cabinet resolution and Ethernet-port mapping.
Receiving Cards
Identify the exact receiving-card model, hub board and current configuration file.
Video / Content Source
List the required video connectors or publishing method instead of assuming another model has the same inputs.
Software & Firmware
Match the controller/player generation before upgrading firmware or configuration software.
Replacement Goal
Decide whether you need a drop-in spare or a platform upgrade with new features.
Backup
Keep mapping, receiving-card parameters, firmware information and photos before service work.
