At 160×288 cm and nearly 4.6 square metres, this P5 outdoor LED message sign is perfectly sharp from a viewing distance of 6–8 metres or more, which makes it the best value-for-money choice for larger premises with vehicle traffic. The panel runs at over 4,200 cd/m² with automatic brightness control. The 100,000-hour service life guarantees more than 10 years of continuous operation, with LED chips from a single production batch. Our own service backing and modules held in stock provide a fast repair. The price sets out the panel, the support structure, the control system and the installation as separate items, and because of the large size we always survey the sizing of the bracket individually.
Outdoor full-colour LED message sign 160×288 cm (P5)
The 160×288 cm P5 panel offers a large display surface of nearly 4.6 square metres at a moderate pixel density, which gives excellent value for money to anyone looking for a large advertising surface clearly visible from a distance along busy roads or open spaces. The P5 pixel pitch is perfectly sharp from 6–8 metres or more, while the large surface gives ample room for a more complex yet still clear message. The outdoor build runs stably in every season. Because of the large size, surveying the load-bearing capacity of the facade and the power supply matters as much as the quality of the panel – and we always do that before the final quote.

A large size, tailored to a driving audience
Pairing the 160×288 cm size with the P5 pixel pitch is expressly recommended for premises where the display is typically viewed from a car, from a greater distance, but where it still matters that a complex, multi-element message should fit. The large surface makes it possible to show a clearly recognisable logo, a short strapline and even a current offer at the same time, still in a large, legible character size. Because the P5 pixel pitch is no longer perceptible from a viewing distance of 6–8 metres or more, this combination represents a significant saving compared with the denser layouts, while the impression remains just as eye-catching for passing drivers.
Stable, energy-conscious outdoor operation
The panel's aluminium housing and IP65-rated front film resist sunshine, rain and frost over the long term, needing minimal maintenance. The automatic brightness control continuously adapts to the light conditions, so the large surface stays clearly visible during the day and does not become a distractingly strong light source at night. The refresh rate above 2,880 Hz provides a flicker-free image, comfortably readable from a car, in motion. Wi-Fi control and the mobile app allow the content to be refreshed quickly and remotely, and the timer function automates the daily switching on and off, cutting the running cost.
Quality and support structure on a surface this size
On a 4.6 square metre outdoor panel, one of the most common mistakes in the market is an undersized support structure or power supply – something that depends not on the quality of the LEDs but on the engineering preparation. Our quote always includes a survey of the load-bearing capacity of the facade or column, and we design the fixing accordingly. At this size too, the LED chips arrive from the same production batch and named manufacturer, and are fitted only after quality control, so that the large surface lights uniformly and without patches years later.
Running and handling on a large surface
Actual consumption with mixed content is typically around 220–300 W/m², which the automatic brightness control reduces further at night. Control through the mobile app is exactly as simple as on a smaller display – if you can write an email, you can handle this. Handover always includes personal training, so that you can upload the first content confidently and manage it independently afterwards.
Typical applications
Outdoor full-colour LED message sign 160×288 cm (P5) — frequently asked questions
Why is P5 a good choice on a panel this large, at 288 cm high?
The combination of a large surface and a moderate pixel density brings a significant saving, while from the typical viewing distance of 6–8 metres or more the image stays just as sharp and convincing.
How much content fits at this size at once?
The large surface gives ample room for a logo, a strapline and a current offer together, in a large, legible character size.
Is this size and pixel pitch suitable for advertising beside a busy junction?
Yes, that is expressly what we recommend it for, since the combination of high brightness and a large surface stays clearly visible from a distance, from a car.
Who handles the sizing of the support structure and supply on a panel this large?
As part of the site survey our own engineers assess the load-bearing capacity and design a correctly sized bracket and power supply; this does not fall to the customer.
What is the warranty, and can a fault be repaired on site?
We provide a full warranty, and most faults can be remedied by a module swap from the front, on site, from our regional stock, typically within days.
Is there a free site survey for a panel this size too?
Yes. We always carry out a free, no-obligation survey, which at this size is crucial for planning the mounting and the power supply precisely.
