Integrated planner Equipment → infrastructure
Declare the equipment package once. AV Stage Tools turns it into station power, outlets and breakouts, signal cable stock, long-run transport checks, generators, LAN switching, PoE, wireless capacity and fiber uplinks.
The example matches the requested 48-panel wall, two line-array hangs, eight subs and an audio station. Zero-watt rows are intentionally blocked until you enter exact nameplate data.
Hierarchy: Production → venue → event date → room/stage → department/system → equipment and connections. These identifying fields stay out of the temporary cookie.
Presets provide common device relationships, not a rental recommendation or approved equipment list.
Choose a profile to replace the example with a complete editable starting package.
Selected reference: Record software, codecs, output format, redundancy and storage; replace the 850 W allowance with the complete computer's measured/nameplate data. Published specification ↗
Connector shape and carried signal are separate facts. Every result states why it passed, what infrastructure is missing and which exact manufacturer values still need verification.
Camera 12G-SDI output → 75-ohm BNC route → switcher 12G-SDI input
The declared connector and 12G-SDI transport match, subject to the listed system conditions.
Breakouts solve physical outlet distribution. The user-entered outlet-circuit assumption converts declared load into distribution counts; AV Stage Tools does not select breakers and never treats extra outlets as extra amperage.
INPUT REQUIRED: Enter nameplate watts for Video wall: LED panels, Stage audio: Line-array hangs, Stage audio: Subwoofers, Audio station: Audio station devices. Circuit, generator and voltage-drop results currently include known loads only.
Enter nameplate watts to calculate the run.

“Units per feed” captures daisy chains and processor capacity. Set it from the exact panel, amplifier, network or controller documentation.
A digital format does not automatically downgrade cleanly at a universal distance. AV Stage Tools uses a published standard limit where one exists, otherwise it requires the exact product’s tested 4K and 1080p limits.
Use a manufacturer-rated optical HDMI or video-over-fiber system. Do not assume cascaded boosters will preserve format or HDCP.
Build the event network from endpoints and traffic—not a guessed switch count. Video, camera, wall-control, audio, PoE and wireless devices remain visible by VLAN and bandwidth demand.
Access-point quantity is a client-capacity floor, not a coverage design. Confirm RF survey, interference, channel plan, antenna pattern, mounting, PoE wattage, switch fabric, multicast/IGMP behavior, protocol compatibility, cybersecurity and venue policy with qualified network personnel.
The venue audience depth populates the farthest viewer and the selected LED equipment record names the product. All calculations use the same engine as the standalone display tool.
These checks belong with the production model because their results affect routes, equipment, network and crew preflight—not as disconnected calculators.
Declare the production standard once, compare every camera, then perform and review a recorded clap/flash sync test.
Record and review a clap or flash test before rolling.
Matching menu labels does not prove synchronization. Confirm reference cabling, format, timecode jam stability and recorded sync on the exact equipment chain.
Calculated equipment, cabling, distribution and network quantities flow into one pricing worksheet. Internal cost and markup stay out of the printable client view.

Power: Ampacity, connector rating, breaker selection, phase balance, neutral loading, grounding/bonding and generator paralleling require the exact equipment and qualified approval.
Video: HDMI has no universal cable-length limit. A 4K path outside its tested limit is not guaranteed to become a clean 1080p path; select a rated transport and test the entire chain.
Network: Port arithmetic cannot prove RF coverage, multicast performance, latency or protocol interoperability.
