XGA Projectors with network capability

VPL-CX125 VPL-CX155

3000 to 3500 ANSI lumen

(with 2200 to 2500 ANSI lumen modes)

The VPL-CX125 and VPL-CX155 are high brightness projectors with the extra benefit of network capability. The projectors are characterised by a large diameter lens which incorporates Advance Crisp Focus (ACF) technology. They are ideal for both education and corporate use, and are suitable for ceiling, rear installation or portable use.

Network capability lets you easily host remote conferences, transfer data and share information without even being present. With the included Sony AirShot Version 2 software, you can send content from your PC or laptop to the projectors via your network. This protects sensitive information, since it remains on your PC, not on the projectors.

Optional Ziris Manage Lite software is also available to remotely manage and monitor the VPL-CX125 and

VPL-CX155, providing vital information including whether the projector is switched on, which video input is chosen and how many lamp hours remain.

Both projectors also feature Side Shot™, so you can even project in awkward rooms, with automatic correction to ensure minimal distortion.

Key Features

Using three 0.79” HTPS LCD panels, these new XGA models can produce between 3000 to 3500 ANSI Lumens of brightness for clear, bright and crisp images every time and in any environment.

Network Capability

RJ45 network capability lets you send content from your PC through your corporate network to the VPL-CX125 and VPL-CX155.

Side Shot™

Digital Horizontal Shift for ceiling mounted applications where off-axes to the screen are not possible for the projector due to building obstruction.

Connectivity

Please note each input/output feature has its own dedicated audio (stereo mini jack feature).

Monitor Out

The VPL-CX125 and VPL-CX155 projectors can display the image simultaneously on a large screen and on an additional monitor (via a 15-pin D Sub connection), so you can face the audience and still see the information being shown.

Low Fan Noise

Quiet operation is vital for a compelling presentation. At only 28dB in standard mode, the operating noise of the VPL-CX125 or VPL-CX155 is quieter than a whisper.

Off and Go

No cool down time needed, just switch off and pack away! The fan continues to cool after the power supply is removed, so you can unplug the projector immediately after use without damaging the lamp or optics.

Direct On/Off

Ceiling mounted projectors are often accidentally left on after meetings, reducing the lamp life and wasting electricity. The VPL-CX125 and VPL-CX155 can be set to skip the standby mode, so they can be turned on and off directly by a main switch.

Password Protection

When this function is activated a password is required to use the projector (if the password is lost, Sony is able to retrieve it).

Control Panel Lock

This switchable function locks the controls on the top and side of the projector, to prevent unauthorised or unintentional use of the controls.

Security Bar

The security bar is a visible security feature that deters or prevents petty theft, by making it harder for a thief to remove the projector from its mount or secure location.

RM-PJ18 Remote Commander

Full featured Remote Commander with ID Function that allows up to three projectors to be individually managed by one commander.

Easy Maintenance

The new VPL-CX125 & VPL-CX155 are designed with easy maintenance in mind. Both the lamp and filters are easily accessed for replacement and cleaning even when the projector is still in its mounted installation bracket.
