49VM5C-A

A 49-inch narrow bezel panel for tiled video walls

The LG 49VM5C-A is a 49-inch LCD panel built to be joined with others into one large display. Its 0.9 mm even bezel on all four edges leaves a 1.8 mm gap between two adjacent panels, so spreadsheets, maps and live feeds stay readable across the wall. Each panel offers 1,920 x 1,080 Full HD resolution and 500 nits of brightness.

Connectivity and control for daisy-chained screens

Inputs include HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI-D, OPS, audio, USB 2.0, USB 3.0 and RGB. The DisplayPort and audio outputs pass a signal from one panel to the next. External control runs through RS232C, RJ45 and an IR receiver, and a LAN daisy chain lets one controller send commands, monitor each screen and update firmware across the wall. The classified in/out port is designed to prevent errors when connecting a daisy chain.

Each panel has a built-in quad-core SoC, so it can play content without a separate media player, with every screen playing its own tile in step with the others. The unit is OPS-compatible, accepts an external MP500 or MP700 media player, and is listed as compatible with SuperSign-w lite and SuperSign-c.

Where this model fits in Qatar

In a command and control room in Doha's Industrial Area or at a utility site in Mesaieed, a 3 x 3 grid of these panels can show operations dashboards, maps and alarms. The narrow bezel keeps small text legible, and LAN control lets operators manage every screen from one workstation. Because the operating range tops out at 40°C, the room must be air-conditioned.

In a university or training centre in Education City, a 2 x 2 wall in a foyer can show timetables, research highlights and event information. Portrait mounting suits corridor wayfinding panels, while landscape suits wide content, and both orientations are supported.

In a hotel or bank lobby in West Bay, the panels can carry brand content and visitor directions. Glass frontages attract direct sun, so keep the panels out of direct light and confirm the room stays within the operating range during summer, when outdoor temperatures often exceed 45°C.

What to plan before you order

• Confirm the wall structure can carry 17.5 kg per panel plus the bracket.
• Match the 600 x 400 mm VESA pattern to the right mount: WM-L640V for landscape or WM-P640V for portrait.
• Add the OPS kit (KT-OPSA) or the HDBaseT extender (EB-B100) if your layout needs them; both are optional.
• Keep the room within 0°C to 40°C and away from direct sunlight.
• Check the basic accessories supplied: remote controller, power, DP and LAN cables, RS-232C cable, IR receiver, guide bracket and screws.
