Weather resistant

Constructed from premium durable materials in our factory, Smart PXL dots offer outstanding protection against moisture (IP67), corrosion and impact (IK10), and come with a 3-year warranty. All internal metallic components are fully sealed by encapsulation, providing additional protection against corrosion in demanding environments.

For outdoor or high-exposure applications, we recommend using the original UV stabilised black dots. The white version is best suited for indoor or shaded installations.

Custom options

Because your projects are built to custom specifications, so are our Smart PXL 40 dots. Select from RGB or RGBW LEDs for a 24V system, as well as from 4 different lens options and custom spacing from anywhere between 125mm and 2000mm between each dot.

The Smart PXL 40 dots are available in black or white dot string, giving designers the flexibility to match darker or lighter architectural elements.

True brightness

Each direct-view Smart PXL dot contains 6 premium RGB or RGBW LED chips, giving an impressive lumen output. They look amazing from a distance and have been used to great effect around the world on everything from bridges to ferris wheels.

Smooth as silk

Our hi-res Smart PXL dots are 16-bit native for an ultra-smooth dimming curve and mixing detail that will truly wow your audience.

Ultra flexible

The versatile nature of Smart PXL dot strings means they’re easy-to-install around tricky angles, corners or bends, making them ideal to show off or highlight architectural features. Talk with an ENTTEC expert and we can help you bring almost any design you can imagine to life.
