The NEC PA803U - the “multi-tool” installation projector
If extraordinary visualisation, brilliant colours and superb dynamic contrast is key for your business, then the NEC PA803U should be your first choice.
The compact 8,000 lumen LCD projector with WUXGA resolution not only trumps the competition with its unique colour processing technology, but also in its outstanding installation capabilities where motorized lens shift, focus and zoom makes setup effortless. The unique HDBaseT-out interface enables multiple projector daisy chaining via cost efficient network cables to a single source helping to reduce installation costs. Like a multi-tool, the essential features continue with management of the latest copyright protocol to play 4k and Ultra HD Blu-ray content whilst the long lamp life and even longer filter life earn a most attractive Total Cost of Ownership.
All in all the NEC PA803U projector is perfectly suited for meeting-, lecture- and seminar-rooms in corporate and higher education installations.
To reduce your installation costs, the projectors can be ordered bundled with the NP13ZL standard lens, which meets the projection requirements of 90% of all installations!
