You may have heard about sending controllers — whether you’re looking into investing in LED video walls, or maybe online. But you aren’t exactly sure what a sending controller is and what it’s used for?

We’ll go over the basics, and highlight a few different ones we utilize here at Firefly LED.

What is a Sending Controller used for in LED?

When you think of a traditional TV in your home, and how you use a DVD player or Cable box in order to send content to your television, this is exactly what a sending controller does for a LED display.

The LED sending controller is the device that hooks up to your LED video wall to send content. With various inputs like HDMI and DVI, you can use different types of devices to display graphics, video and more.
