Christie Lens 2.71-3.891 (UHC 4K) - 163-121105-01

Product Overview

The Christie 163-121105-01 is a high-brightness zoom projection lens with a 2.71-3.89:1 throw ratio for Christie Boxer 4K30 projectors. Part of the UHC 4K ILS4 lens family, it serves medium-long-throw installations where maximum light delivery from the Boxer platform is the priority. Specifications and features are subject to change without notice per Christie's ongoing development.

Product Description

This lens pairs the Christie Boxer 4K30 with a 2.71-3.89:1 throw ratio, placing the projector at roughly 2.71 to 3.89 times the image width from the screen. That range fits projection positions set back from the screen in large venues: front-of-house positions in ballrooms, elevated truss positions at live events, and booth locations in mid-depth auditoriums. The high-brightness optical design prioritizes light throughput so the Boxer 4K30's output reaches the screen with minimal loss across the zoom range. As an ILS-format lens it supports motorized operation with position recall on the Boxer platform, which speeds setup in rental and staging workflows where lenses and chassis are paired per show. Confirm fit against your specific projector configuration before ordering; our team can verify compatibility.
