The PLC-XE34 is exclusively available to Education users where the projected output of 1500 ANSI in Eco Mode, XGA resolution, dual data inputs plus video are ideal for Primary or Secondary schools. Rather than an entirely orange cabinet, the PLC-XE34 now offers an orange security plate to identify the unit as an Education model, balancing the need for security with the end user requirement for aesthetics. Network monitoring and control allow the projector to be managed remotely and enable an administrator to switch the projector into standby at the end of the day. Standby power consumption of less than 1 Watt and extended lamp life of up to 6000 hours reduces the Total Cost of Ownership of this projector and minimise its impact on the environment. The PLC-XE34 is supported by a 3 year lamp warranty and 3 year de-install/ re-install projector warranty.
