BenQ MX560C
BenQ MX560C
The BenQ MX560C is an office projector designed for clear, bright presentations in meeting rooms. It uses DLP display technology to project with a native resolution of 1024×768 pixels (XGA). The lamp, which acts as the light source, produces a brightness of 4000 ANSI lumens, ensuring content is legible even in rooms that aren't completely dark. This high-brightness projector offers specialised modes for infographics or spreadsheets, which optimise the colour reproduction and contrast for the specific type of content. A high contrast ratio of 20000:1 renders sharp details in both dark and light areas of the image. As a short throw projector, it creates a large screen size even from a short distance.

Bright and detailed image
The projection is based on DLP technology, which displays content at a native resolution of 1024×768 pixels (XGA) with support for a 16:10 aspect ratio. A light output of 4000 ANSI lumens and a contrast ratio of 20000:1 work together to create a bright image with legible text and vivid colours, even in rooms with ambient light. All-glass lenses ensure image accuracy and clarity and reduce chromatic aberration. The projector offers several specialised picture modes. Presentation mode optimises brightness and colours, infographic mode improves text legibility, and spreadsheet mode enhances detail in tables and financial reports.
Efficient operation and long lamp life
The lamp serves as the light source, with a lifespan of 6000 hours in normal mode. Power-saving modes extend this value significantly. ECO and SmartEco modes extend operation to 10000 hours. In addition, SmartEco technology actively adjusts lamp power based on the projected content, reducing power consumption by up to 70%. LampSave mode offers a longer lamp life. The cooling system noise level is 34dB at full power and drops to 29dB in ECO mode, reducing disruptions during your presentation. Operational efficiency is complemented by an automatic shutdown after 20 minutes of inactivity.
Flexible installation and easy setup
Thanks to its short throw distance, the projector displays a large image even with a small gap from the projection surface. You can adjust the screen size from 762mm (30") up to 7620mm (300") at a projection distance of 1.2 to 13 metres. Automatic keystone correction makes it easy to align the image within a range of ±30 degrees, eliminating the need for manual adjustment. A 1.1× optical zoom is used for fine-tuning the image size without physically moving the device. The option to place it on a table (freestanding) or mount it on the ceiling provides installation flexibility.
Projector connectivity
An HDMI 1.4a port and an analogue VGA (D-SUB) input are used to connect signal sources, maintaining compatibility with older equipment. A 3.5mm audio input is available for connecting external sound systems. The USB-A port powers connected smart devices, such as wireless adapters for content streaming. An RS232 serial port and a USB Mini B port are used for integration into central control systems and for firmware updates.

Native resolution vs. maximum resolution
Native resolution determines the actual number of physical pixels on the projector's imaging chip and defines the real sharpness of the image, while maximum resolution only indicates the highest signal the projector can accept and convert (downscale) to its native resolution. For a high-quality image, it is always crucial to pay attention to the native resolution.Specifications
