Projector Lamp
The HT500 LINK is SIM2's flagship DLP™ technology-based High-Definition projector, as well as the latest and most innovative addition to the acclaimed and successful Grand Cinema HT line. Based on High Definition 3-chip DLP™ technology, the HT500 LINK delivers remarkable colour fidelity, sharp details and superb picture quality on a big screen. Also, it features the revolutionary SIM2 DigiOptic™ Image Processor, the remote processor box linked to the projector through a thin fibre optic cable. And, the HT500 LINK has an elegant design whose smooth curves make it a high-class focal point of any décor. 3-chip DLP™ projection system DLP™ technology-enabled projectors for very high image quality or high brightness applications such as cinema and large venue displays rely on a 3-DMD-chip configuration to produce stunning images, whether moving or still. In a 3-chip system, the white light generated by the lamp passes through a prism that divides it into red, green and blue. Each DMD chip is dedicated to one of these three colours; the coloured light that each micromirror reflects is then combined and passed through the projection lens to form a single pixel in the image. External DigiOptic™ Image processor with 12 inputs SIM2's DigiOptic™ Image Processor, the remote processor box equipped with a wide choice of inputs and linked to the projector through a thin fibre optic cable (3,5mm - 0,14" diameter). FIBRE OPTIC connection With this innovative feature of using an external input/image processing box connected via fibre optics to the projector, SIM2 has made installation and signal management an easy task. Video sources are typically located far away from the projector and it is becoming very difficult to run HD-compatible cables for long distances. With the HT500 LINK this issue no longer exists. Based on a Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) chip-set the optical link allows a fully digital source-to-display link, which is capable of transmitting data over a distance in excess of 1600 ft, with 3 high-speed lasers between the DigiOptic™ Image Processor and the projector for a loss-free and interference-free signal. New Digital Inputs Thanks to the new digital inputs on the DigiOptic™ Image Processor - HDMI™-HDCP and DVI - the HT500 LINK is a truly future-proof projector that allows complete digital connectivity to an increasing amount of video sources. Upgradability The innovative connectivity of the HT500 LINK through the external DigiOptic™ Image Processor allows the user to approach this moment of digital confusion with ease. The DigiOptic™ Image Processor features new digital inputs and is fully upgradable. This means that you will no longer have to worry about changing the whole unit, but will only upgrade the external input/image processor. Lenses The HT500 LINK is available in a choice of 5 different lenses (throw ratio ranging from 1.2-1.44:1 to 2.6 - 5.6:1).
