DCI Compliance and Image Quality
The NEC NC2443ML meets full DCI specifications, ensuring compliance for digital cinema distribution and playback. Its 4K DLP imaging system produces exceptional detail, precise colour reproduction, and the deep contrast ratios required for professional theatrical projection. With support for 3D playback and full DCI colour gamut, it delivers the visual performance demanded by high-end cinema environments.
Laser Light Source
The projector uses a modular RB laser light source that provides up to 50,000 hours of illumination without lamp replacements. This design ensures consistent brightness over time and reduced operational costs. The modularity also allows field upgrades, enabling operators to tailor brightness output for different auditorium sizes.
Optical and Lens Control
With motorised zoom, focus, and lens shift, the NC2443ML offers precise image alignment for a variety of screen positions. The sealed optical engine prevents dust contamination, preserving image clarity and reducing maintenance intervals. The system supports 6 Bayonet-Style Lenses, allowing flexible installation distances and screen sizes.
Custom DMD shielding
Protects the projector from dust/oil contamination and provides optimal picture quality.
Modular Architecture
The modular design separates the light module from the projector head, simplifying upgrades and servicing. This flexibility allows projection systems to evolve as requirements change, extending the product’s life cycle and protecting investment in cinema infrastructure.
Connectivity and Integration
The projector integrates seamlessly with digital cinema servers and control systems through standard interfaces. It supports high-speed content transfer, remote monitoring, and full compatibility with NEC’s integrated media server options. These features make it suitable for multiplex environments and automated screening operations.
Accessories
Ships with a dedicated remote control for full projector operation, the electrostatic air filter, and replacement laser module (NP-24LU03). The projector is also compatible with NEC’s optional IMS units and a range of interchangeable cinema lenses for different throw ratios.
