The Good Things that Come in Short Distances
Zero Space Constraints
Just imagine the freedom of having the same projection quality with half the required distance! You’ll have better flexibility in choosing your projection locations! That's the magic of short throw!
Zero Eye-Blinding Lights
The short throw projection distance keeps the projector light from shinning directly into your eyes, allowing you to keep your focus on your audience.
Zero Disruptions
Say goodbye to the shadows that often interrupt your presentation. With a projection distance this close, you and your audience can move freely without worrying about obstructions between the projector and the screen!
Stereoscopic 3D Ready Projection
All BenQ’s upcoming projector models come standard-equipped with DLP LinkTM-supported 3D projection technology to bring you the same amazing 3D effects you get in 3D movies. Unlike traditional 3D projector systems that require two perfectly aligned projectors with two separate video feeds to deliver 3D projection, BenQ’s system requires only one – making it the perfect choice for education and home entertainment use!
Classroom3 Initiative 3D Case Study
3D visualization is researched and proven to help all types of learners excel in class!
Texas Instruments' Classroom3 DLP 3D Initiative's recent case study shows a dramatic
improvement of 35% in student test scores from the pilot implementation
of 3D simulations across the US state of Illinois.
LAN Control Centralized Projector Management
LAN Control is designed to help IT managers perform day-to-day projector maintenance
and repair tasks efficiently and effectively – offering them full access and control over
every projector directly from their workstations. It’s just what you need to save energy, time and money! The BenQ MW811ST offers seamless support for your original LAN Control setting –
whether it’s Crestron, PJ-Link or SNMP. It also comes with a built-in projector network
control system uniquely designed by BenQ for your convenience. All it takes is a LAN cable to set things up!
Thoughtful Design for Presenters
20W Microphone Audio Power
The MW811ST is built with 20W industry-leading audio power and microphone input to empower your presentation! Two 10W speakers are sealed and secured within each side of the projector with BenQ’s anti-shake design to deliver crisp-clear audio quality and projection stability, while the microphone input connects you to conventional and wireless microphones and microphone headsets.
What's more, the MW811ST can be used as an audio system only even when it's
on standby mode! Finally, you can have a blast presenting without straining your voice – or your budget!
Hassle-Free PC-Less Presentation
Enjoy a hassle-free presentation with the USB Reader and Remote Desktop functions!
The USB Reader function enables a JPEG presentation with a USB flash drive! It’s as easy and plug and play!
The Remote Desktop function allows you to present using a wireless mouse and keyboard!
Consider it an upgrade from the USB Reader option! You’ll get to access everything from
your computer remotely on the projection screen! Going PC-less also means you’ll get to
save up on computer purchase, maintenance and repair for your school or company!
Multiple Display Options for Various Office and Classroom Needs
Projectors are powerful tools for making successful presentations. To ensure a smooth presentation
on your part, BenQ has integrated various display functions into the MW811ST to fit every need!
USB Display offers the plug-and-play convenience of USB connection – with automatic resolution
detection for the best image presentation and extension support for simultaneous multi-projection display.
LAN Display offers a cost-effective solution for projector implementation management using a
single LAN cable to control and display. This feature also offers simultaneous 1-8, 4-1 or
partial projection display option for better content management for discussions,
presentations, training and classroom teaching.
Wireless Display keeps cables and wires out of everyone’s way with the BenQ
Wireless Display Adapter (optional accessory) to deliver big screen display for
all your presentations and perform simplified centralized network control via USB 2.0 seamless WLAN connectivity.

Closed Captioning
Display subtitles in video content without the need for an external closed-captioning device with the MW811ST. It's perfect for viewing in educational settings such as language classes where a transcript of onscreen dialog is desirable.
Thoughtful Teaching Template Design
To make your teaching job easier, BenQ has added the teaching template function to the MW811ST. Now, with four different line pattern designs to choose from – Letter Formation, Musical Staff, Worksheet and Coordinate Chart, you can easily write or draw on whiteboards as well as blackboards without the need of drawing lines or charts.
