About this file
This document is a technical specification for the Lamar University Courtside LED Video Tables Upgrade project, prepared by Anthony James Partners in June 2025. The project involves replacing existing courtside LED video tables at the Montagne Center with two new sections: a 30-foot section on the North Side and a 20-foot section on the South Side. The contractor will be responsible for a turnkey installation including LED displays, video processing equipment, electrical and data cabling, and associated infrastructure. The specifications detail precise technical requirements for the LED displays, including 4mm pixel resolution, 1200 nits minimum brightness, color temperature between 4,500°-9,000° Kelvin, and specific uniformity and performance standards.
The project requires the contractor to provide comprehensive documentation, including shop drawings, engineering specifications, and Operation & Maintenance Manuals. The contract includes a 24-month warranty with specific provisions for parts replacement, maintenance, and on-site support. The contractor must supply spare parts inventory, including 2% spare lighting units and power supplies, and provide training for university personnel. Additional requirements include aesthetic considerations for display construction, use of premium materials and finishes, and rigorous testing and acceptance procedures. The displays will be integrated with an existing Ross Tessera One System and must meet detailed electrical, structural, and performance specifications.
