Projector set up

[stevejd58]

My boss has tasked me with trying to set up a projector for movies (Amazon prime etc) in the care home I work for in the UK

We are looking for reasonable ceiling mounted projector but at a reasonable cost as this is funded by charitable funds.

so recommendations for a suitable device would be appreciated

the second part concerns connectivity,

• we have wifi 5 in the proposed area
• our laptops are 10th gen i5 with thunderbolt and mini hdmi

running cables would be about 6metres, our initial thought was to connect the projector to a trunked cable (male to female) to prevent our lovely customers getting hold of the cables and pulling, but I am unsure the range HDMI or thunderbolt will go without degrading the signal

 

Any advice would be useful
