Video wall reliability is one of the most important considerations in control room video wall design. For the past 30 years, Christie has been developing and implementing technologies that guaranty the highest level of reliability and display performance.

Purpose-built features make our video walls the most reliable

• All Christie video wall display solutions use proven technologies, such as DLP®,  that can withstand constant, long-term use without degrading in performance.
• We have a field-proven Mean Time Between Failure (MTBF) of over 63,000 hours on dual-lamp, UHP display systems.
• With our unrivalled 60,000-hour LED illumination lifetime rating, Christie's Entero line of display cubes have the highest reliability in the AV industry.
• Dust-free sealed optics protect optical components from even the smallest particles.
• Hot-swappable, automatic lamp changers in dual-lamp systems minimize interruption if there is a lamp failure.

A reliability milestone — 3,000,000 hours and counting at the AT&T site

In 2007, Christie installed 141 RPMSP-D120U rear-projection engines into a 250-foot wide by 12-foot high AT&T global network operations center located in Bedminster, New Jersey. After three million hours of nonstop use, AT&T’s operating wall had not incurred any hardware failures!
In December 2009, AT&T added 39 more Christie rear-projection engines to their upper display wall, confirming AT&T’s certainty in the reliability of our products.

63,000 hours Mean Time Between Failure for Christie 24/7 dual-lamp, rear-projection products

Mean Time Between Failure or MTBF is a standard measure of reliability that shows the average time that elapses between system failures. It’s a comprehensive measure that includes both the average time that elapses until there is a system failure and the time it takes to repair the system.

Christie RPMX-D120U and RPMSP-D120U rear-screen projection modules run with an average of 63,000 hours MTBF - the longest documented hours of operation in the industry.
