Thanks to tarmLED 4x4's lightweight construction and daisy-chain cabling from module to module using just a single, combined, power and data line, the total weight of the approximately 50sq.m LED-surface, including all power supplies and processors, could be reduced to around 600 kg, which was an essential factor in arranging such a production, due to the limited load-bearing capacities of the existing suspension points. Data transmission from the control panel to the 'LED-sky' via a fiberoptic cable provided interference-free control over the entire system.
Another criterion for employment of tarmLED 4x4 was its 82-% transparency, which allowed its installation beneath the auditorium's sprinkler system, without adversely affecting fire protection.
