| Features | Benefits: |
|---|---|
| Affordable | Priced to bring excellent brightness and advanced features within reach. |
| Easy Setup, Operation and Maintenance | The control panel is located on the top of the unit and features large user-friendly keys for quick and easy setup. And, maintenance is made easy with Sony's synchronized lamp replacement and filter cleaning at 4000 hours. |
| Sleek Design | The design features a unique body shape that broadens towards the front allowing images to project upwards on the screen and therefore minimal tilt adjustment is required. |
| Closed Captioning | Allows presenters to display a transcription of the audio portion from video sources to provide interpretive information to viewers who wish to access it. |
| Accepts a Wide Variety of Interfaces | The VPL-TX7 accepts a wide variety of input signals from standard definition (SD) to high definition (HD) including composite video, S-Video, and 2 analog RGB/component inputs via HD D-sub 15-pins. It’s equipped with a 5W speaker, RJ45 and a monitor output with variable audio out. |
| High Brightness and Image Quality | No need to turn out the lights! The VPL-TX7 delivers a color light output of 2000 lumens, bright enough to be clearly seen in normal room lighting, so students can take notes and follow along with handouts. |
| Network Functions | The network allows users to monitor the projector's status and will even e-mail updates. |
| Anti-Theft Features | Password protection helps prevent unauthorized usage. The control panels can be locked to help prevent inadvertent or unauthorized adjustments. And there’s even a security bar to allow connection to an optional security cable such as anti-theft chain or wire. |
| Off & Go | Simply turn off the projector and unplug the power cord and GO! At last, no more waiting for the fan to turn off. |
| Short Projection Distance | The VPL-TX7 displays an 80 inch image from approx. 8 feet away. Get the bigger picture even in a small classroom or cozy conference room! |
