Optoma ZU500USTe

High brightness laser WUXGA ultra-short throw projector

The Optoma ZU500USTe is powered by long-lasting, low maintenance DuraCore laser light source. The lamp-less and filter-free design of this Optoma UST projector vastly reduces running costs for a lower total cost of ownership.

Weighing only 12.5 lb, this Optoma ultra-short throw projector can be mounted just inches away from a wall or surface and can project an image over 100 inches in size.

Supporting 24/7 operation and versatile orientation, the Optoma ZU500USTe is a flexible, powerful and bright ultra-short throw projector that makes for a superb signage solution where space or accessibility can be limited, such as shop windows or retail displays.

 

Key Features:

  • Bright WUXGA laser projector: 5000 lumens

  • Ultra short throw lens: 100" image from only 12" away

  • DuraCore laser technology: 30,000 hours maintenance-free laser light source

  • Dust resistant: Independently tested, IP5X certification for total reliability

 

Features

  • DuraCore technology: Implementing advanced laser diode cooling techniques and an innovative dust resistant design, this technology achieves industry leading lifetime.
  • IP5X Dust resistant optical engine: Independently tested and certified to IEC standard 60529 with an IP5X dust resistance rating. Outstanding dust resistance combined with exceptional brightness ensures industry leading durability; paramount for 24/7 maintenance-free operation in challenging environments.

  • Four corner correction: Adjust the keystone in both the vertical and horizontal plane. You can individually warp each corner of the image to create a perfectly square image. Ideal for image stacking, uneven walls or where projector placement is awkward and requires installation at an angle.

  • Amazing color: reliable color performance suits any content and environment. From accurate sRGB colors for lifelike images to vibrant punchy presentations, we have a display mode to specifically meet your needs. Perfect for a range of graphic and video presentations.

  • Superior contrast: Add more depth to your image with a high contrast projector. Compared to competing technology, Optoma DLP projectors provide you with brighter whites and ultra-rich blacks. Images come alive and text appears crisp and clear - ideal for business and education applications.

  • AV mute: Stay in control of your presentation with AV mute. Direct your audience's attention away from the screen by blanking the image when not needed.
  • Wide range of options for remote control and monitoring:
    • RS232 Optoma projectors come with an extensive set of RS232 commands making it simple and easy to manage using any control system.
    • AMX compatible Dynamic discovery protocol is incorporated into the projector allowing for easy installation with AMX control systems.
    • Crestron RoomView Using the compatible RoomView® software you can power on/off, monitor, manage and control up to 250 projectors at the same time from any computer
    • Extron IPLink compatible, allows for easy installation with Extron control systems

  • Auto power off: To help save energy, the "auto power off" feature automatically turns off the projector after a set period of time if it is not being used

  • Integrated speaker: A powerful built-in speaker provides exceptional sound quality and an easy setup without the need for costly external speakers.

  • Built-in media player: Give presentations directly from your projector without the need for a laptop or PC, using the built-in media player. Simply copy your documents, images and videos to a USB stick / SD card / microSD card (depending on the projector input) and display them on the big screen.

  • Full 3D: can display true 3D content from almost any 3D source, including 3D compatible graphics cards, 3D broadcasting and the latest generation 3D media servers.
  • Direct power on: The projector will start up instantly when power is supplied to the unit. This eliminates the need to manually turn on the projector via the remote control or the keypad, ideal for use in rooms with a "master" power switch.
  • Direct power off: Power off your projector immediately or directly at the mains. This means you don’t have to wait for the projector to cool down before turning it off.
  • EPSON® replacement adapter: Update your EPSON® ultra-short throw projector with an Optoma UST projector without changing your existing mount or white board.

  • 24/7 operation: Optoma projectors have been designed to operate 24 hours a day in standard orientation. Perfect for applications where prolonged periods of use is required. Subject to 24 hour terms and conditions.
