LED display projects that need a dedicated sending / controller unit to drive receiving cards — fixed installs, stage, and commercial screens.
Choose MCTRL660 when your system design calls for a classic Novastar sending controller (loading reference: 1920×1200@60Hz), paired with matching receiving cards — not a standalone media-only player.
Novastar receiving cards over Ethernet, and the upstream source / computer side of your control setup. Exact ports follow the product specs above.
