Orlando, Florida, June 17, 2015 – Hitachi America Ltd., Digital Media Division, Business Solutions Group is introducing its CP-BW301WN and CP-BX301WN Short Throw LCD projectors, offering an unmatched combination of vibrant image quality, network connectivity, cost-effective operation and long-lasting reliability that’s perfectly suited for a new installation or existing classroom installation that demands a projector refresh utilizing the existing wall-arm mount.

Both Short Throw projectors offer a Throw Ratio of 0.4:1 and deliver an improved 10,000:1 contrast ratio and lamp life up to 10,000 hours. Picture quality is further improved by the Hitachi’s exclusive High Dynamic Contrast Range (HDCR) technology that yields clear images even in bright rooms, and the projector’s Accentualizer feature that makes images look more realistic by enhancing sharpness, shadow detail and other picture qualities.

The projectors compact size and light weight (13.6" x 11.9" x 3.4", 8.4 lbs.) make it easy to install on a wall-arm mount or place on a tabletop or other surface.
