DM-RMC-SCALER-S/ 
DM-RMC-SCALER-S2 

Introduction 

The DM-RMC-SCALER-S/DM-RMC-SCALER-S2, hereinafter referred to simply 
as the DM

®

 receiver unless otherwise indicated, 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

®

 (DM-RMC-SCALER-S)/ 

DM 8G SM (DM-RMC-SCALER-S2) fiber receiver, video scaler, and control 
interface, providing a single HDMI

®

 output along with Ethernet, USB HID (Human 

Interface Device), RS-232, and IR control ports. Built-in scaling enables the 
connected display to handle virtually any video signal. Its compact, low-profile 
design allows the DM receiver 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 one multimode (DM-RMC-SCALER-S) or single-mode 
(DM-RMC-SCALER-S2) fiber strand.

Features and Functions 

 (Continued on following page) 

1.

 

For DM 8G wiring, the maximum DigitalMedia 8G fiber cable length is 1000 feet (~300 meters) 
using CRESFIBER8G fiber optic cable, or 500 feet (~150 meters) using standard CRESFIBER, 
CRESFIBER-SINGLE-SC, or generic OM3 simplex multimode fiber optic cable. For DM 8G SMF 
wiring up to 7.5 miles (12 km) between devices, use Crestron CRESFIBER8G-SM or generic 
G.652.D (or better) single-mode fiber optic cable. Refer to the latest version of the Crestron 
DigitalMedia Design Guide (Doc. 4546) for complete system design guidelines. The manual is 
available from the Crestron Web site at 

www.crestron.com/dmresources

. All wire and cables sold 

separately. 

2.

 

HDMI requires an appropriate adapter or interface cable to accommodate a DVI signal.  
CBL-HD-DVI interface cable sold separately.
