Epson EB-L200SW Projector
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Epson EB-L200SW WXGA Short-Throw 3LCD Laser Projector (V11H993052) - Local Warranty
A 120-Inch Image From Under a Metre of Wall
The EB-L200SW is the short-throw model in the EB-L200 family, and the numbers are what matter: an 87-inch image from 0.91 metres, a throw ratio of 0.48 at the wide end and 0.65 at the tele end, and a working range of 53 to 120 inches. That is the difference between fitting a projector into a narrow classroom, a meeting pod or a retail back-of-house space and not being able to use one at all. Because the unit sits above and close to the screen, a presenter standing at the board casts no shadow and takes no glare in the eyes.
3,800 Lumens of Colour Brightness From a Laser Light Source
Epson publishes 3,800 lumens of colour light output and 3,800 lumens of white light output for this model, driven by a three-chip 3LCD engine that handles red, green and blue simultaneously. A 2,500,000:1 contrast ratio keeps text crisp and black on a whiteboard surface. The laser light source is rated at 20,000 hours, so an education or corporate estate can be commissioned and then largely left alone — no lamp stock, no lamp changes, and brightness that stays consistent room to room.
WXGA 16:10 Native — The Right Shape for a Whiteboard Wall
A native WXGA 1280 x 800 panel in 16:10 matches the aspect ratio of most business laptops, so a mirrored screen fills the projected area without black bars top and bottom. On a classroom whiteboard, the 16:10 frame also maps far more usefully onto the physical board than a 4:3 image does. Content Playback and Content Creative features let the projector run scheduled playlists directly, which is useful for signage-style applications in a lobby or a showroom.
Full Professional Connectivity Including RS-232C and Wired LAN
Two HDMI inputs, two D-Sub 15-pin computer inputs, composite video, RCA and twin stereo mini audio inputs, a monitor output and a stereo mini audio output cover both modern and legacy sources. An RJ45 port at 100 Mbps brings the unit onto a managed network for Epson Projector Management, and RS-232C lets a room control system drive it. Wireless is included, a USB Type A port takes an Epson document camera, and a 16 W speaker covers audio in a classroom without a separate system.

Compatibility & Installation
Mounting and orientation
Short-throw projectors are normally wall-mounted on an arm above the screen rather than ceiling-hung in the middle of the room. At 337 x 325 x 90 mm excluding feet and 4.5 kg, the EB-L200SW suits a standard short-throw wall arm. The 9.51:-1 offset means the image sits well below the lens centre line, and vertical keystone correction runs -15 to +15 degrees — a narrower range than a standard-throw unit, so accurate mounting matters more here.
What it connects to
Two HDMI inputs cover laptops, mini-PCs, media players and control systems. Two D-Sub 15-pin computer inputs, composite video, an RCA audio input and two stereo mini audio jacks keep legacy desktops and visualisers in service. A monitor output and stereo mini audio output feed a confidence monitor or room audio, and a USB Type A port accepts an Epson USB document camera.
Network, control and content management
A 100 Mbps RJ45 port brings the projector onto a managed LAN for Epson Projector Management monitoring, and RS-232C lets a Crestron, Extron or similar controller drive it. Wireless is included and Epson iProjection handles multi-PC sharing. Content Playback and Content Creative allow scheduled playlists to run from the projector itself for signage-style use.
Where it sits in the range
The EB-L200SW is the WXGA short-throw model. Its XGA short-throw sibling is the EB-L200SX; the standard-throw models are the EB-L200W in WXGA and the EB-L200F in Full HD. The newer short-throw generation with built-in wireless is the EB-L210SW.

Frequently Asked Questions — Epson EB-L200SW
The EB-L200 codes look almost identical — which one am I actually buying?
Read the suffix. S means short throw, and the final letter is the resolution: F is Full HD 1920 x 1080, W is WXGA 1280 x 800 and X is XGA 1024 x 768. So EB-L200F is Full HD standard throw, EB-L200W is WXGA standard throw, EB-L200SW is WXGA short throw and EB-L200SX is XGA short throw. A standard-throw unit sits several metres back; a short-throw unit sits under a metre from the wall.
How close to the wall does it actually sit?
An 87-inch image needs 0.91 metres of throw distance. The throw ratio is 0.48 at the wide end and 0.65 at the tele end, covering 53 to 120 inches in total. That is short throw, not ultra-short throw — it still needs the better part of a metre, so measure before you commit if the room is very tight.
What is the difference between the EB-L200SW and the EB-L200SX?
Resolution and brightness. Both are short-throw laser projectors in the same family. The EB-L200SW is WXGA 1280 x 800 in 16:10 at 3,800 lumens; the EB-L200SX is XGA 1024 x 768 in 4:3 at 3,600 lumens. Choose the SW for widescreen laptop mirroring and whiteboard walls, the SX if your content and your existing screens are 4:3.
How does it compare with the standard-throw EB-L200W?
The EB-L200W has the same WXGA panel but is a standard-throw unit with a 1.38 to 2.24 throw ratio, 4,200 lumens and a 282-inch maximum image. The EB-L200SW trades reach and some brightness for the ability to work from under a metre. If the room has depth, the W gives you more for the money; if it does not, the SW is the only one of the two that will fit.
Will the presenter cast a shadow?
Much less than with a standard-throw projector. Because the unit mounts close above the screen and projects down at a steep 9.51:-1 offset, someone standing at the board is mostly out of the light path and does not get the beam in their eyes when they turn around. That is the main practical reason classrooms specify short throw.
Is there a lamp to replace?
No. The laser light source is rated at 20,000 hours. For a school running six hours a day during term, that is well over a decade of teaching, with no lamp stock to hold and no brightness drift between rooms commissioned at the same time.
Can it be managed and controlled centrally?
Yes. A 100 Mbps RJ45 network port supports Epson Projector Management for monitoring and control across a fleet, and an RS-232C input lets it answer to a room control system. Direct power on and off with Instant Off means no cool-down wait when a room is switched off.
Can it run content without a computer attached?
Yes. Content Playback and Content Creative are supported on this model, so scheduled playlists can run from the projector itself — useful for lobby, showroom or signage-style deployments where you do not want a PC sitting behind the screen.
What warranty and paperwork do I get from SourceIT?
Every unit is supplied by SourceIT with a three-year Singapore local warranty and a full GST invoice, so the projector can go straight onto your company's asset register and be serviced locally without shipping it overseas.
