Ultra-high resolution, high contrast, 
and high quality projector

Ultra-high resolution of 4096

2400

This projector comes with a newly developed 1.27" and 
4096

2400 pixel D-ILA (Direct-drive Image Light 

Amplifier) device, and achieves an ultra-high resolution of 
9.83 million pixels, which is four times that of full HD.

High contract ratio of 10,000:1

A high contrast ratio of 10,000:1 (native) is achieved 
through combining the D-ILA device with WireGrid 
(inorganic reflective polarizing plate) that is employed in 
the new optical engine.

High flexible installation

Design is compact and light, and enables 
stacking

This product is about 65 % the size of existing JVC 
projectors of the same class, and its weight is as light 
as 55 kg (excluding lens).

Stackable design enhances installation for special 
applications (e.g. 3D).

Vertical/Horizontal lens shift

This projector enables not only vertical (±50 %), but also 
horizontal (±25 %) lens shift, which enables a larger 
degree of flexibility in the layout.

Inclined installation

This product can be installed at a tilt angle of up to ±90°, 
which provides greater flexibility in the location of the 
projection screen.

Low power consumption

This product helps to save power with a consumption of 
not more than 1.5 kW.

User-friendly interface and high 
operability

Equipped with DVI (Dual-Link)

4 input terminals

Network-supported

In addition to the conventional RS-232C, it also 
provide support for connection using Ethernet.
You can make adjustments or configure settings from 
the web browser on the PC without having to install 
any special software.

Network connection enables you to make perform 
adjustment or configure settings for multiple projectors 
using a single PC.

The Email feature enables you to send reports on the 
lamp replacement timing or error messages to a 
remote location.

Comes with various built-in test patterns (six 
types including Cross Hatch, Color Bars, etc.)

Enables image adjustment without the need of external 
signal sources.

Features that enable flexible 
display and expression

Supports multi screens (single screen, two-
screen, and four-screen modes)

Comes with three types of built-in gamma tables.
