Rental & Staging LED Video Wall
Planar® Mantis™ Series LED video walls are engineered to meet the fast-paced demands of the rental and staging industry. With fully tool-less installation and simplified handling, the Mantis Series allows crews with minimal LED experience to quickly set up, tear down, and maintain large video walls.
Its lightweight magnesium alloy construction provides strength and rigidity to help maintain image integrity and improve handling. Designed to support real-world workflows, the Mantis Series integrates seamlessly across venues and events. In addition to live productions, Mantis delivers reliable, camera-ready performance for on-camera applications in broadcast and virtual production environments.
The series features professional-grade components selected for demanding applications. Each element, from cabinet construction to internal electronics, is designed for durability, consistency, and long-term reliability. This helps maintain alignment and dependable performance across repeated installations, transport, and use.
Fast and efficient service is enabled by fully tool-less access to modules and electronics. Quarter-turn mechanisms allow for quick on-site replacement, reducing downtime and simplifying maintenance. This enables crews to keep video walls operational and ready for the next deployment.
A fully tool-less design and intuitive cabinet connections streamline installation and teardown. This simplified handling allows crews of all experience levels to quickly assemble and disassemble, reducing setup time and supporting efficient transitions between venues.
Integrated edge protection safeguards LED modules during handling, transport, and installation. This added durability reduces the risk of damage in rental environments, minimizing service needs and maintaining consistent performance.
The series is optimized for on-camera applications, including broadcasting, virtual production, and live events that are streamed or recorded. It delivers consistent, stable image quality for reliable performance, both in person and through the lens.
These road cases are purpose-built for transporting, storing, and protecting Mantis cabinets. Their top-loading design enables faster packing and unloading, and they are available in configurations tailored to 500×500 and 500×1000 cabinet sizes.
Designed for Mantis, the hanging support allows for one-handed installation. It features latch-based attachment and magnetic alignment, enabling fast and secure cabinet placement.
The Planar Mantis Ground Stack Frame allows for the quick assembly and disassembly of stable, free-standing video walls.
