HD Matrix Switcher
The DM-MD6X4 and DM-MD6X6 provide six HDMI
receivers, DVD or Blu-ray Disc
digital sources. Outputs include one HDMI and three (DM-MD6X4) or five
(DM-MD6X6) DigitalMedia ports, furnishing simple one-wire connectivity for a
local display or audio processor, and three (DM-MD6X4) or five (DM-MD6X6)
additional displays anywhere in the house. QuickSwitch HD™ matrix switching
allows any display to view any source at any time.
DigitalMedia 8G+
Crestron exclusive DM 8G+
providing a true one-wire interface for distributing high-definition video, audio, and
control signals to multiple displays throughout a residence or commercial structure.
Simply connect a DM 8G+ receiver (sold separately) at each flat-panel display or
projector for a complete AV and control interface. Only one CAT5e (or better) wire
run to each receiver transports pure, uncompressed HD video, 7.1 surround sound
audio, 10/100 Ethernet, power, and control signals for a fully integrated media
system with minimal wiring. DM 8G+ allows for wire runs up to 330 feet (100
meters) using CAT5e (or better) or Crestron DigitalMedia 8G™ cable.
3. DM 8G+ receivers with built-in scaling include the DM-RMC-SCALER-C, DM-RMC-200-C,
DM-RMC-4K-SCALER-C, and DM-RMC-4K-SCALER-C-DSP. For the HDMI output, use the
HD-SCALER-HD-E or the HD-SCALER-VGA-E.
4. USB-EXT DM USB over Ethernet extender modules are sold separately. Refer to the USB-EXT-
DM spec sheet on the product webpage for more information.
* For DM 8G+ or HDBaseT wiring up to 330 feet (100 meters) between devices, use Crestron
DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia 8G cable or generic CAT5e (or better) UTP or STP. Shielded cable and
connectors are recommended to safeguard against unpredictable environmental electrical noise that
may impact performance at resolutions above 1080p. For complete system design guidelines, refer to
the Crestron DigitalMedia Design Guide (Doc. 4546). All wire and cables are sold separately.
