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.

Planning from a real wall? Use the projector screen size calculator to upload a photo, preview the image to scale and find projectors that fit within your maximum available space. Replacing an existing projector? The projector replacement calculator checks whether this lens covers the ratio your current mount needs.

Distances are lens-to-screen, calculated from the manufacturer's stated throw ratio; allow for lens shift and mounting hardware. Always confirm against the manufacturer's installation guide before fixing mounts.
