DigitalMedia 8G Fiber Receiver: DM-RMC-SCALER-S/S2
Operations & Installation Guide – DOC. 7324B
Video Wall Processing
The DM receiver provides 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 2 x 2, 3 x 2, 3 x 3, 4 x 3, or 4 x 4 are supported, and all that is required is a
separate DM receiver for each display and a DM switcher (sold separately) with
sufficient DM 8G/DM 8G SM fiber outputs.
LAN Connectivity
Along with high-definition AV and control, DigitalMedia technology also integrates
high-speed Ethernet networking for a total signal distribution solution.
The DM receiver includes a 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet port, providing a
convenient LAN connection for a local network device.
Keyboard/Mouse Extender
The DM receiver 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 Control
The DM receiver includes built-in RS-232, IR, and Ethernet control ports to allow
programmable control of the display device connected to it. It can also provide an
alternative to such conventional control methods by harnessing the CEC (Consumer
Electronics Control) signal embedded in HDMI. Through its connection to the
control system, the DM receiver provides a gateway for controlling the display
device through the HDMI connection, potentially eliminating the need for any
dedicated control wires or IR emitters.
Low-Profile Installation
Its low-profile design makes the DM receiver perfect for installation behind a flat
panel display or above a ceiling mounted projector. It mounts to a standard 2-gang
US, UK, or European electrical box using the mounting bracket provided, affording a
clean installation that protrudes less than 1-1/2 inches (~38 mm) from the mounting
surface.
Connections are positioned on the top and bottom of the unit. The design of the
mounting bracket allows wires up to 0.23 inches (~6 mm) in diameter to extend from
the electrical box as needed. An array of indicators is provided on the front of the
DM receiver for easy setup and troubleshooting.
