Barco G50-W8 8000-Lumen WUXGA Laser DLP Projector (No Lens, White) - R9010656

Product Overview

The Barco G50-W8 is an 8,000-lumen WUXGA single-chip DLP laser projector designed for permanent installation in bright, high-demand environments. This white-chassis configuration (part R9010656) ships without a lens, letting integrators specify the precise G-series optic their venue requires. A long-life laser phosphor light source and compact, energy-efficient chassis make it well suited to corporate, exhibition, and large-room projection. Motorized lens control and full 360-degree orientation simplify alignment in nearly any mounting position.

Product Description

One of the smallest and lightest projectors in the 5,000-8,000 lumen class, the G50-W8 produces 7,500 ANSI lumens of WUXGA (1,920 x 1,200) imagery from a sealed DLP optical core that stays clean over the unit's life. The laser phosphor source is rated up to 20,000 hours and uses constant light output (CLO) to hold brightness steady, an asset in single- and multi-channel installs. As pictured in the gallery, the white housing blends into ceilings and architectural mounts in galleries, lobbies, and conference spaces. Need TAA-compliant sourcing for a government project?

Frequently Asked Questions

What lens does the G50-W8 use? The projector ships without a lens and accepts Barco's full range of interchangeable G-series lenses, from a 0.37:1 ultra-short-throw to a 2.90-5.50:1 long-throw, so you can match the throw distance of your room.

What is the difference between this white model and the TAA-compliant version? This R9010656 unit is the standard white configuration. The TAA-compliant model (R90106562) is sourced to meet U.S. Trade Agreements Act requirements for government procurement; it is otherwise optically and electronically identical.

How does the G50-W8 integrate into an AV system? It provides dual HDMI 2.0b, DisplayPort 1.2a, and HDBaseT inputs plus RS232 and RJ45 control, and is managed remotely through Barco's Projector Toolset and optional Insights Management Suite.

Can it be mounted in any orientation? Yes. The G50-W8 supports full 360-degree rotation with no restrictions, including portrait, tabletop, and inverted ceiling mounts.

What warranty is included? Barco provides a limited 3-year parts-and-labor warranty.
