banner (in this context)
Explanation:
I believe this refers to the led banner panels placed around the perimeter of football fields, which flash an ad every 15 seconds (hence the reference to six fifteen-second banners in your text), sometimes calle LED banner panels, digital perimiter boards, etc.

Both "LED banners" and "(digital) perimeter boards" are appropriate translations for "carátulas" in this context. However, I assume you prefer UK terminology, and "perimeter boards" appears to be the term used most often on UK advertising agency websites in reference to ads placed within football stadiums, while "LED banners appears more often on US football and baseball-related websites):

To add a comment to Edward's suggestion:
The text does not refer to advertising hoardings, but rather to perimeter boards (or) LED banners that line football fields, are visible to television viewers watching football matches, and which change every 15 seconds. Here are definitions of "advertising hoardings" from local UK government websites, in which it is clear that the term "advertising hoarding" refers to large billboards or "wrap-around" building-size ads, and NOT to perimeter boards or ad banners found in football or other sports venues. (Advertising hoardings may, of course, also be used at sports venues, but Jenny's text appears to refer to the "flashing" LED ad banners/perimeter boards and I believe that the reference to the fifteen-second intervals is the key context here.

Advertising Hoardings and Panels
There are numerous advertising hoardings across the city. Hoardings are the large bill-boards (ranging from 10 to more than 20 metres in length) usually sited on the roadside or used to screen building developments.

Advertising Hoardings
'billboards, posters'
Advertising hoardings are usually very large boards on which advertisements are shown, and are usually located at the side of a road. Most require approval prior to erection, although some types of advertisement signs can be displayed without the consent of the Local Planning Authority. We advise in all circumstances that you seek advice regarding whether permission is needed by contacting the Development Control Section.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you. I'm inclined to select your "LED banner", but someone disagrees. I'll see if I get any further "agrees" or "disagrees" before finally deciding.

agree  Csaba Szenes

  -> Gracias Csaba

disagree  Edward Tully: "banner" refers to a specific product and not to "caratula" in general
47 mins
  -> Yes, and in Jenny's text "carátula" is a specific product, i.e., banner panels (or) perimeter boards present in football stadiums

agree  Noni Gilbert Riley: Banner is what you see, along with Rebecca´s other suggestions, and is the name which is replacing the old word hoardings in advertising parlance, although with qualifications (led/perimeter), hoardings is still valid.
15 hrs
  -> Thanks aceavila. In effect, "hoardings" as currently used is more often reserved for large billboards and the huge building wrap-arounds, as per the definitions from UK websites I referenced above.
