Pixel pitch + cabinet count + physical size — three modes for spec'ing an LED wall.

Pixel pitch → minimum viewing distance (the 1× / 2× / 3× rule). Cabinet count + pitch → native resolution + physical size. Target physical size → cabinet grid + actual footprint. Use it to size walls from a 1.2 mm corporate lobby to a 20 mm outdoor billboard.
