Description
The Epson EB-W49 is a compact, stylish WXGA (1280 x 800) 3LCD projector delivering 3,800 lumens of colour and white brightness with a 16,000:1 contrast ratio, producing sharp, legible presentations and vivid video content on screens up to 320 inches.
Equally high white and colour light output ensures consistent, natural-looking images even in moderately lit rooms, while a 1-1.2x manual zoom and automatic vertical/manual horizontal keystone correction make positioning straightforward. Network capability via RJ45, with optional wireless LAN, allows the projector to join a company network or be upgraded for wireless device access.
A built-in 5W speaker means the EB-W49 can run standalone without external audio equipment, and its lamp is rated for 8,000 hours in normal mode, extending to 17,000 hours in Eco mode. The projector is covered by a 3-year Epson warranty.
