A P10 outdoor SMD screen has its LEDs 10 mm apart. That spacing decides how close people can stand, how big the screen must be for a given resolution, and what it costs. P10 is a classic large-billboard pitch; viewers far away see a smooth picture.
P10 outdoor specifications
| Specification | P10 outdoor |
|---|---|
| Pixel pitch | 10 mm (sold as P10) |
| Pixel density | about 10,000 pixels per m² |
| Pixels per metre | about 100 across and down |
| Common module size | 320 × 160 mm = 32 × 16 pixels |
| Closest comfortable viewing | about 10 m |
| Best viewing distance | about 20–30 m |
| Size of a full-HD (1920×1080) screen | about 19.20 m × 10.80 m |
| Size of a 4K (3840×2160) screen | about 38.40 m × 21.60 m |
| Typical brightness | about 4,000–7,500 nits (depends on model) |
| Weather protection | IP65 front on outdoor models (dust-tight, protected against water jets) |
Figures are calculated from the pitch; brightness, refresh rate and cabinet size depend on the exact model and brand. We confirm the full datasheet with every quote.
Where a P10 outdoor screen works best
- highway billboards (with the relevant authority’s approval)
- very large rooftop and façade displays
- city-entrance signs
- big-format advertising seen from 10 m or more
Outdoor modules are sealed and much brighter so they stay readable in direct sun when the brightness suits the site. See IP65 vs IP68 and how bright an outdoor screen must be.
Is P10 the right pitch for you?
- If most viewers will be closer than about 10 m, a finer pitch such as P8 outdoor looks smoother.
- If nobody comes closer than about 16 m, P16 outdoor gives the same picture from there and costs less per square metre.
- Measure the distance from the screen to the closest viewer, and the width of wall you have. Our pixel pitch guide explains the rule.
Prices and quotes
Price depends on screen size, brand, cabinet type, controller and installation, so we quote per project rather than per module. Our outdoor price guide explains what changes the cost. Send us the wall size and viewing distance to ask for a free quote, or call 0306-1333384.
Frequently asked questions
How close can people stand to a P10 screen?
About 10 m is the closest comfortable distance; from 20–30 m the picture looks completely smooth.
How big is a full-HD P10 screen?
To show 1920×1080 pixels natively, a P10 screen is about 19.2 m wide and 10.8 m high. Smaller screens still play HD video; the controller scales it.
Can P10 be used indoors?
It can, but outdoor modules are much brighter than needed indoors and cost more; for an indoor wall an indoor model of a similar pitch is better value.
