Overview

The Dahua DSCON2100-0416H is a 1.5U video wall controller with four HDMI inputs, 16 HDMI outputs and support for splicing up to 16 screens. It handles 4K input, custom wall layouts, window splitting and scheduled content tours from a front-panel LCD and shortcut keys. It suits control rooms, operations centres and lobbies in Doha, Lusail and Education City that need one controller to manage a multi-screen display.

What the DSCON2100-0416H does on a video wall

The Dahua DSCON2100-0416H is a 1.5U embedded controller that sits between your video sources and your display wall. It accepts four HDMI inputs, processes them and distributes the result across up to 16 screens through its 16 HDMI outputs. Operators can split each screen into windows, move content between them and store layouts for different situations, all without rewiring the room.

Inputs, outputs and resolutions that matter

Two of the four inputs are HDMI 2.0 and accept 4K sources, while the other two are HDMI 1.3 and are rated up to 1920 × 1080@60 Hz. The input modes let you run one 4K@60 Hz channel, two 4K@30 Hz channels or four 1080p@60 Hz channels. The default output for each screen is 1920 × 1080@60 Hz. Custom output can be set with a width and height from 128 to 3,840 pixels, which allows unusual wall shapes and ultra-wide strips of up to 3840 × 524@60 Hz.

Input: 4 HDMI channels, with custom EDID settings for each input port
Output: 16 HDMI outputs, with splicing of up to 16 screens
Layouts: 1, 4, 6, 8 and 9 splits, plus custom M × N splits where M × N is 9 or fewer
Control: front-panel LCD knob, shortcut keys, Ethernet, two RS-232 ports, one RS-485 port and three USB ports

Where it fits in Qatar

A government operations room in Doha might run a nine-screen wall that shows live camera feeds, dashboards and briefing material. Operators can use the 9-window split and roaming to move feeds around during a meeting without changing the source cabling.

A hotel lobby in West Bay could use the ultra-wide output to drive a long, narrow strip of screens above a reception desk for flight or event information. A university in Education City could use scheduled schemes and tour intervals to switch between lecture material, open-day presentations and campus announcements at set times.

Planning for heat, power and rack space

The rated operating range is -10 °C to +55 °C, with 10% to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing. Summer temperatures in Qatar often pass 45 °C, so install the unit in a ventilated, air-conditioned equipment room and keep air paths clear. The power input is 100–240 VAC at 50/60 Hz with consumption of 60 W or less, and the 240 V supply in Qatar falls within this range. Confirm the supplied power cord with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering, because the source data does not list the plug type. The unit measures 66 × 440 × 321 mm (H × W × D), weighs 4.64 kg net and 7.36 kg gross. A free site survey can confirm rack position, cable routes and airflow before installation.

Control, scheduling and integration

The front-panel display and shortcut keys let operators change IP addresses, switch presets and tours, turn screens on or off, change content and check input status without a computer. The unit supports ONVIF, Hikvision Private and Dahua Private interoperability, and it includes PCM and G.711 audio compression with a 3.5 mm audio output, one alarm input and one alarm output. Ask for a quote from SmartRooms Qatar to confirm the controller count and wall layout for your site. Quotations are usually issued within one working day, and we can supply purchase orders and tender documents.

Questions about DSCON2100-0416H

What is the Dahua DSCON2100-0416H used for?

It is a 1.5U video wall controller that takes HDMI sources and distributes them across a wall of up to 16 screens. It suits control rooms, operations centres and lobbies where several feeds must be shown together and changed quickly. Its 16 HDMI outputs and multi-window layouts let one operator manage the whole display from a single unit.

How many screens can it drive, and at what resolution?

The unit has 16 HDMI outputs and can splice up to 16 screens together. The default output for each screen is 1920 × 1080@60 Hz. Custom output sizes can be set with a width and height from 128 to 3,840 pixels, so the wall can be tailored to the panels you choose.

Can it accept 4K sources?

Yes, but only on two of its four inputs, which are HDMI 2.0 ports. The unit can run one 4K@60 Hz channel, two 4K@30 Hz channels or four 1080p@60 Hz channels, depending on the input mode. The two HDMI 1.3 inputs are rated up to 1920 × 1080@60 Hz, so plan 4K sources on the HDMI 2.0 ports.

Which control and integration protocols does it support?

The source data lists ONVIF, Hikvision Private and Dahua Private interoperability. It also has a network port, two RS-232 ports, one RS-485 port and three USB ports. A security control room in Doha that already runs Dahua or ONVIF-compatible cameras can therefore bring feeds onto the wall without a separate gateway, subject to a check of your devices.

Can it show an ultra-wide strip of content?

Yes. Custom output supports up to 3840 × 524@60 Hz or 524 × 3840@60 Hz. This is useful for a narrow strip display, such as a ticker of flight or event information above a hotel reception desk in West Bay, where a standard 16:9 layout would not fit the space.

Is it compatible with Qatar's 240 V mains supply?

The power input is rated 100–240 VAC at 50/60 Hz, with consumption of 60 W or less. Qatar's 240 V, 50 Hz supply falls within that range. The data does not list the plug type, so confirm the power cord with the SmartRooms Qatar team before ordering.

What operating temperature does it need?

The rated operating range is -10 °C to +55 °C, with 10% to 95% relative humidity, non-condensing. Because Qatar summers often exceed 45 °C, install the unit in an air-conditioned equipment room with clear airflow rather than in a hot cabinet, and ask our team to review the room during a site survey.

How do operators control it on site?

The front panel has an LCD, a knob and shortcut keys. Operators can change IP addresses, switch presets and tours, turn screens on or off, switch content and view input status. This lets a duty officer in a government operations room make changes without opening a computer interface during a live event.

Can it switch content automatically at set times?

Yes. The unit supports scheme tours, scheduled schemes and configurable tour intervals. A university in Education City could use scheduled schemes to change between lecture material in the morning and open-day presentations in the afternoon, without manual switching.

How much rack space and weight should I plan for?

It is a 1.5U unit measuring 66 × 440 × 321 mm (H × W × D). The net weight is 4.64 kg and the gross shipping weight is 7.36 kg. Allow rack depth for the 321 mm body and room for cabling on the rear ports, and confirm the rack position during a free site survey.

Can I set custom EDID for the inputs?

Yes, the input ports support custom EDID settings. This helps when a source device, such as a laptop or camera in a lecture theatre, does not negotiate the display settings correctly with the wall. An AV team at a university can set the EDID once so that sources connect reliably each time.

Can SmartRooms Qatar supply it for a government tender or school LPO?

Yes. The unit is sold by quotation, and we supply purchase orders (LPOs) and government tenders, including Monaqasat. We deliver to all 8 municipalities of Qatar and accept payment by bank transfer, cheque or purchase order. Request a quote with your wall size and number of sources, and the team will confirm the configuration with the quotation.
