DigitalMedia 8G+™ Receiver & Room Controller w/Scaler

The DM-RMC-SCALER-C provides an advanced one-box interface solution

for a single display device as part of a complete Crestron®

DigitalMedia™ system. It functions as a DM 8G+™ receiver, video

scaler, and control interface, providing a single HDMI® output along

with Ethernet, USB HID, RS-232, and IR control ports. Built-in scaling

allows the connected display to handle virtually any video signal

regardless of resolution and format. Its compact, low-profile design

allows the DM-RMC-SCALER-C to be installed discreetly behind a flat

panel display or above a ceiling mounted projector. It connects to the

head end or source location using a single CAT5e or Crestron DM 8G™

cable.

As the leader in HDMI and control system technologies, Crestron

developed DigitalMedia to deliver the first complete HD AV

distribution system to take HDMI to a higher level. DigitalMedia

allows virtually any mix of AV sources to be distributed throughout

the home, office, school, or virtually any other facility.

DigitalMedia 8G+ breaks even further ground, providing a true one-wire

transport for moving high-definition video, audio, and Ethernet over

low-cost twisted-pair cable without any compression or repeaters. Just

one 8-conductor twisted-pair cable is required, supporting distances

up to 330 feet (100 m) using Crestron DM 8G Cable or CAT5e.

WUXGA computer resolutions — all through a single connection. The

HDMI output can also handle DVI signals using an appropriate adapter

or interface cable

. In addition, there are RS-232, IR, and

Ethernet control ports provided for controlling the display device and

other equipment.

A single cable connects the DM-RMC-SCALER-C to a DM® switcher or

transmitter, transporting video, audio, control, and networking

signals all through one simple RJ45 connection.

Multiple

DM-RMC-SCALER-Cs may be installed to handle each display in a

multi-room distribution system, all fed from a central DM-MD series

switcher. Or, a single DM-RMC-SCALER-C can be fed straight from a DM

8G+ transmitter, affording a simple solution for extending a computer

or AV signal to a single display.

High-Definition ScalerHigh-Definition ScalerHigh-Definition ScalerHigh-Definition Scaler

Through a distributed scaler approach, DigitalMedia truly delivers the

most flexible and user-friendly solution for routing multiple

disparate sources to many different display devices. Employing DM

receivers with built-in scaling, DM allows an independent

high-performance scaler to be installed at every display device,

ensuring an optimal image on every screen. Distributed scaling allows

a high-definition 3D or high-res computer source to be viewed on

lower-resolution 2D displays without compromising the original signal,

letting you share your theater's full HD 1080p 3D image with smaller,

lesser displays in the kitchen, bathroom, and bedrooms.

The DM-RMC-SCALER-C accepts any video source from standard NTSC 480i

to HD 1080p60 w/Deep Color, as well as computer sources from VGA to

UXGA/WUXGA, and scales them perfectly to match the native resolution

of your video display. A range of common output resolutions are

supported to work with virtually any popular flat-panel display,

projector, or computer monitor. Intelligent frame rate conversion

enables support for 24p and PAL format sources, and 3D to 2D

conversion allows 3D content to be fed simultaneously to separate 3D

and 2D displays. Setup and use of the scaler is simplified through

fully automatic operation utilizing the display's EDID

The DM-RMC-SCALER-C has another trick up its sleeve, providing zoom

capability on its output to display just a portion of the source

image. Using this feature, multiple units may be combined to configure

a high-definition video wall composed of up to 16 individual

displays. Configurations of 2x2, 3x2, 3x3, 4x3, or 4x4 are supported,

and all that is required is a separate DM-RMC-SCALER-C for each

display, and a DM switcher with sufficient DM 8G+ outputs.

LAN ConnectivityLAN ConnectivityLAN ConnectivityLAN Connectivity

Along with high-definition AV and control, DigitalMedia also

integrates high-speed Ethernet networking for a total signal

distribution solution. The DM-RMC-SCALER-C includes a 10/100 Ethernet

port, providing a convenient LAN connection for a local network

device.

The DM-RMC-SCALER-C also functions as a keyboard/mouse extender,

allowing a USB HID-compliant keyboard and/or mouse to be connected at

the display location, and used to control a computer or other

component located at the central equipment rack or some other

location.

Embedded Device ControlEmbedded Device ControlEmbedded Device ControlEmbedded Device Control

The primary objective of every Crestron system is to enable precisely

the control desired for a seamless user experience. The

DM-RMC-SCALER-C includes built-in RS-232, IR, and Ethernet control

ports to allow programmable control of the display device connected to

it. But, it can also provide an alternative to these conventional

control methods by harnessing the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control)

signal embedded in HDMI. Through its connection to the control system,

the DM-RMC-SCALER-C provides a gateway for controlling the display

device right through the HDMI connection, potentially eliminating the

need for any dedicated control wires or IR probes.
