Setup

Network Wiring

When wiring the network, consider the following:

• Use Crestron Certified Wire.

• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.

• Provide sufficient power to the system.

CAUTION: Insufficient power can lead to unpredictable results or damage

to the equipment. Please use the Crestron Power Calculator to help calculate

how much power is needed for the system

(http://www.crestron.com/calculators

• For larger networks, use a Cresnet Hub/Repeater (CNXHUB) to maintain

signal quality.

For more details, refer to “Check Network Wiring” on page 34.

QuickMedia Wiring

The Crestron QuickMedia cable (sold under the name “CresCAT-QM”) contains one

CAT5E cable and one Cresnet cable in Siamese jackets. Installation of any QM

device is as simple as installing CresCAT-QM wires from the output of one device to

the input of another. Installations are flexible, affordable and fast. For more

information, refer to the latest revision of the Crestron MediaManager Applications

Guide (Doc. 6244), which is available for download from the Crestron website

NOTE: Do not untwist the two wires in a single pair for more than 1/3-1/2”

(0.84-1.27 cm) when making a connection. The twists are critical to canceling out

interference between the wires.
