The digiLED d11N screen measures eight modules wide by five high (8.448×5.28m), the 44.6m2 screen will be used as a conventional scoreboard, but can also be used to provide other information to match-goers and generate revenue for the club by being used for advertising.
 
The content is fed from a graphics card DVi port to a signal splitter, then to the digiLED transmitter unit, where it is fed to the screen by fibre optic.  The existing setup could feed content to a maximum of 16,000 screens throughout the stadium, should the football club decide to link it in to the stadium’s corporate hospitality areas in the future.
 
The splitter feeds signals to two 19in monitors at the screen operator’s position – one with the digiSPORT controls, the other with the current screen content.

The system was installed in time for two of Stoke City’s biggest home fixtures of the season – against Manchester United and Liverpool.
