Description
The BenQ MW560 is a WXGA (1280x800) business projector delivering 4000 ANSI lumens, designed for meeting rooms and classrooms that need clear, crisp presentation of text, spreadsheets and video without a large budget. A 20,000:1 contrast ratio (FOFO) keeps detail visible even in moderately lit rooms, and BenQ's SmartEco lamp management extends bulb life up to 15,000 hours in the most economical mode while cutting running costs. Connectivity covers the essentials for a general-purpose room projector: dual HDMI 1.4a inputs, VGA input and monitor-out, composite video, S-Video, USB Type-A and Mini-B, and RS232 for basic control integration. A single 10W speaker means no separate audio system is required for small to medium rooms, and automatic vertical keystone correction (+/-40 degrees) speeds up day-to-day setup. The MW560 is a straightforward, cost-effective choice for schools, training rooms and small offices needing a reliable everyday data projector, and is covered by BenQ's standard warranty.
Key features
Native WXGA (1280x800) resolution at 4000 ANSI lumens gives clear, sharp text and imagery for typical meeting-room and classroom lighting conditions.
SmartEco and Eco lamp modes extend bulb life to up to 15,000 hours and automatically reduce power draw when full brightness is not needed, lowering running costs.
Dual HDMI 1.4a, VGA in/out, composite, S-Video, USB Type-A/Mini-B and RS232 cover the common source and control needs of a general-purpose room projector.
Automatic vertical keystone correction (+/-40 degrees) and a 1.1x zoom lens make positioning and image alignment quick for non-technical users.
