Our review on the Sanyo PLC-XW250LMP Projector

A great all round performer with solid build quality and backed up with a fully comprehensive 3 year on-site warranty.

A nice feature on the Sanyo XW250LMP that you dont see on projectors in this price range is the inclusion of an RJ45(LAN) input.

Using the LAN terminal (RJ-45), the PLC-XW250LMP can be controlled and managed via network connection. The LAN connection offers settings for power on/off, switching input signals, as well as for monitoring lamp conditions and usage time. An automatic maintenance notification function sends notices to preset email addresses in the event of projector problems, resulting in faster maintenance response time. Using SANYO’s PJ Network Manager software, it's possible to centrally monitor operating conditions of up to 200 Sanyo projectors on a single network, reducing multiple projector management time
