Mitsubishi XD221U-STD Ultra-Short Throw 3D XGA Projector, 2000 ANSI Lumens, 1024x768 Resolution, DLP - 0.55" 1-Chip Display, 2500:1 Contrast Ratio

The Mitsubishi XD221U-ST(D) Ultra-Short Throw XGA Projector is a highly versatile and accommodating multimedia and data projector. You can display a 60" image from only 33" away and at only seven pounds, it can be used in both mobile and stationary applications. It features Mitsubishi's BrilliantColor technology which enhances color reproduction, resulting in clear and vivid images. It also features 3D-Ready technology, which will let you use 3D in presentations and entertainment. This unit thrives in any training situation and can be connected to a network for multiple simultaneous presentations. Many units can be run from one central location, but it also works great on its own.

The XD221U-ST(D) has several inputs that increase its flexibility. There is a single PC input for connecting a computer. There is a LAN terminal for linking with a network and a serial terminal for RS-232C connection. The video and S-video terminals are paired with two 3.5 mm mini jack audio inputs. There is a monitor output and an audio output as well. The audio output allows you to run the sound through a more substantial speaker system.

Although there is an audio out, the XD221U-ST(D) is more than capable of producing loud enough sound for any presentation. The unit has a built-in 10W high-volume speaker. There is also an audio mix option, which works well for connecting the wireless microphone (sold separately). This ensures the presenter's voice is reproduced loud and clear. The fact that the fan noise is low, only 26 dB, means there won't be too much annoying interference with the audio.

The automatic subtitle function uses a built-in closed caption decoder to convert words into subtitles. The subtitles are projected onto the screen, addressing the needs of language students and hearing-impaired viewers. Mitsubishi also includes a Quick Menu that improves ease of operation. There are seven main menus and one custom menu, allowing you to select specific operation settings more quickly.

The XD221U-ST(D) also includes All-in-One web-based management of multiple projectors. This is possible when linking with a network through the LAN terminal. The status of many projectors in the same building can be easily viewed and you can turn projectors on and off from a central location. You can also control the image input via a network, letting you give multiple presentations from one location.
