Overview
The BenQ MW560C is a reliable WXGA projector designed specifically for use in bright meeting and training rooms. With a light output of 4,000 ANSI lumens, it keeps content easy to read even when daylight comes in. Thanks to DLP technology and the SmartEco function, the projector is a low-maintenance solution for everyday business and education.
Benefits and special features
- High brightness of 4,000 ANSI lumens allows presentations in rooms with ambient light, without darkening.
- Precise text and sharp graphics thanks to the high contrast ratio of 20,000:1.
- Energy-efficient operation thanks to BenQ SmartEco mode, which dynamically adapts lamp power to the image content.
- Quick image alignment with vertical keystone correction of +/- 30 degrees for flexible placement.
- Built-in 10-watt speaker delivers clear audio for presentations without an external PA system.
- Versatile connection options including HDMI 1.4 and VGA for connecting modern and legacy source devices.
Picture and sound quality
The BenQ MW560C uses a 0.65-inch DMD chip (DLP technology) with a native WXGA resolution of 1,280 x 800 pixels. With a brightness of 4,000 ANSI lumens and a contrast ratio of 20,000:1, the system delivers clear images with deep blacks. Special picture modes such as Infographic and Spreadsheet optimise the display of text and detailed tables.
The built-in audio solution consists of a 10-watt mono speaker, which is adequately sized for small to medium-sized conference rooms.
- 1x HDMI 1.4
- 1x VGA input (D-Sub 15-pin)
- 1x RS232 (D-Sub 9-pin)
- 1x USB Type A (power supply)
- 1x USB Mini B
- 1x audio input (3.5 mm jack)
- 1x audio output (3.5 mm jack)
- 1x IR receiver (front)
Mounting and installation
The projector supports front and rear projection as well as ceiling mounting. Vertical keystone correction of +/- 30 degrees compensates for projection at an angle to the screen surface.
- Remote control
- Power cable (1.8 m)
- Quick start guide (QSG)
For theft protection, the projector features a Kensington lock slot and a built-in security bar for security cables.
Distance planning tip: add 22.1 cm plus approx. 7–12 cm for plugs and cable exit.
According to the manufacturer, this projector supports image sizes from 60 inches (152 cm) to 150 inches (381 cm).
| Image size | Image width (approx.) | Throw distance |
|---|---|---|
| 80 inches | 171 cm | 2.65 m – 2.90 m |
| 100 inches | 214 cm | 3.31 m – 3.63 m |
| 120 inches | 256 cm | 3.97 m – 4.36 m |
The calculated throw distances are based on the manufacturer's throw ratio and are intended as a guide. As the measuring points (e.g. from the centre of the lens vs. the front of the housing) often vary between data sheets, calculations accurate to the centimetre cannot always be guaranteed.
Running and follow-up costs
Typical power consumption is 270 watts in normal operation and less than 0.5 watts in standby mode.
| Operating mode | Lifetime | 2 hrs/day | 8 hrs/day |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard mode | 6,000 hours | 8.0 years | 2.0 years |
| ECO mode | 10,000 hours | 13.5 years | 3.5 years |
Conclusion
The BenQ MW560C is a cost-effective solution if you are looking for a bright WXGA projector for regular use in presentation environments. Its high brightness of 4,000 ANSI lumens, combined with efficient operating modes such as SmartEco, keeps the total cost of ownership low. Easy installation and robust security features make it a dependable tool for offices and educational institutions.
