Panasonic PT-RZ44KEJ

PT-RZ44K — 3-Chip DLP™ WUXGA Projector, 42,000 lm

The PT-RZ44K is the WUXGA sibling in the PT-RQ45K Series, sharing the exact same body and 42,000 lm output as the 4K flagship, just at 1920 x 1200 resolution instead of native 4K. For customers who don't need the extra pixel count but want the same brightness, reliability, and rental-friendly footprint as the RQ45K, this is the practical alternative. It's also part of the world's smallest and lightest projector class at this brightness, and it's fully compatible with existing frames, flight cases, and lenses from the PT-RQ35K2/K Series, so fleet upgrades stay simple. Available from CY2026 Q3.

Key Features:

• 42,000 lm (ANSI) / 45,000 lm output, WUXGA (1920 x 1200 px) resolution
• Same compact, lightweight body as the PT-RQ45K — easy fleet integration alongside existing RQ35K2/K Series gear
• Optional 12G-SDI input via the TY-SB01QS Terminal Board, plus an Intel® SDM standard-compatible slot for media processors
• 5-inch color Information Monitor LCD for on-unit settings, projection angle, video preview, and real-time status
• Modular design cuts servicing time significantly versus previous models, ideal for rental turnaround
• Contrast Sync and Shutter Sync supported over LAN, reducing cabling requirements
• Smart Projector Control app support for up to 64 projectors from a smartphone or tablet, plus USB Control Connect and NFC prep without AC power
• Backup Input mode for automatic failover (HDMI or SDI, with optional SDI board) with no screen blanking
• Failover Circuitry on laser modules keeps projection running even if a single diode fails
• IP5X Dust Protected rating, coated circuit boards, and independent liquid-cooling for red and blue lasers, built for harsh, coastal, or high-dust environments
• 25,000:1 dynamic contrast and support for 1080p/240Hz playback (4K signals are converted to WUXGA on this model)
• Compatible with current-generation D3LE-series lenses and the ET-D75LE95 ultra-short-throw lens; throw distances from 4.64m to 180m depending on lens
