DigitalMedia™ CAT Receiver
Crestron
DM-RX1-1G
DigitalMedia
As the leader in HDMI and control system technologies, Crestron has
developed DigitalMedia, the first complete HD AV distribution system
that takes HDMI to a higher level, and allows virtually any mix of AV
sources to be distributed throughout the home, office, school, or virtually
any other facility.
DigitalMedia distributes uncompressed digital video and audio signals
several hundred feet using DM cable
1
. DigitalMedia thoughtfully
manages all of the different signals and devices, matching each source’s
output to the capabilities of the selected display(s) without using scaling
or compression. Every signal is preserved in its native video resolution
and audio format, ensuring a pure, lossless signal path throughout.
Multimedia Display Interface
A single HDMI digital AV output port is provided on the DM-RX1-1G,
handling 1080p60 HDTV with HDCP and multi-channel HD lossless
audio, all through a single connection. The HDMI output can also handle
WUXGA computer resolutions, and supports DVI signals using an
appropriate adapter or interface cable

The DM-RX1-1G connects to the DM CAT output of a DM-MD series
switcher to feed a high-definition display device or other equipment up to
425 feet (~130 meters)
1
away. Multiple DM-RX1-1Gs may be installed to
feed multiple displays, all fed from a central DM-MD series switcher.
Simple Wall Mount Design
The DM-RX1-1G is designed to be wall mounted using a standard
electrical box or plaster ring, or attached to a rack rail in the back of an
equipment cabinet. It also fits select floor boxes. The DM cable is
terminated to the rear of the receiver using screw terminals.
