Product Specifications:
XEED WUX6010/WUX450ST:
The WUX6010 and WUX450ST projectors are based on LCOS technology, which works in combination with the Canon AISYS system to produce outstandingly smooth images. The Brightness, Color Rendition, Contrast and Picture uniformity is better compared to the other two projection technologies, namely DLP (Digital Light Processing) and LCD (Liquid Crystal Display).
The HDBaseT input port enables you to transmit HD images, audio and control signals via a single cable of up to 100m in length with no loss of quality. Equipped with Four-point keystone correction feature, users can keep their projected image sharp and precise even when projecting at an angle.
The XEED WUX450ST comes with standard Wi-Fi connectivity to ensure seamless projection without any requirement of wires and cables without any time lag.
LX-MU800Z:
LX-MU800Z is the company’s first single-chip DLP projector with a Laser Phosphor Light Source, which results in longer lamp life and delivers a maximum brightness of 8,000 lumens, for up to 20,000 hours. This results in lower running cost and reduces the need for the projector to power up/shutdown, as the need to warm up or cool down the lamp is eliminated.
The LX-MU800Z comes with flexible 360 degree installation orientations at all angles on vertical axis. The LX-MU800Z projector comes with multiple connectivity options 3G-SDI, HDMI, DVI-D, and a built-in HDBaseT™ receiver. This allows uncompressed HD video, audio, and control signals to be transmitted over a single LAN cable with a maximum distance up to 100 meters. The LX-MU800Z is also compatible with Crestron, AMX, and Extron devices enabling control and the monitoring of multiple projectors on a network.
