HD System Switcher
The DMPS-100/200/300-C provides high-performance routing of numerous digital
and analog sources to up to four separate projectors, flat panel displays, codecs,
touch screens, and other devices. Connectivity is provided for multiple HDMI
®
sources

, or other combinations of HDMI, RGB, S/PDIF, analog audio, and analog
video sources (plus additional remote sources via DM 8G+™). Input auto-detection
and auto-switching eliminates the need to configure the inputs – simply connect the
source and the DMPS-100/200/300-C selects the right audio and video combination.
Depending on the DMPS device being used, built-in matrix switching allows routing
of up to seven simultaneous sources to up to four HDMI or DVI display devices,
plus up to three additional analog audio components.
Flexible Audio Routing
The HDMI, S/PDIF, and analog audio inputs may be configured to follow their
associated video inputs, or switched independently. In fact, the audio from any
HDMI source can be extracted from the digital stream and converted to analog to
feed an outboard processor, mixer, or codec, with the return signal feeding back
through any analog input, which can be embedded with any video source to form a
new HDMI output. Routing of multichannel PCM, Dolby
®
, and DTS
®
audio sources
is supported through the HDMI and DM 8G+ outputs. All analog audio, HDMI,
DM
®
, and S/PDIF inputs include adjustable input compensation to accommodate a
wide range of signals and maintain consistent volume levels when switching between
sources.
DigitalMedia 8G+
Integrated DigitalMedia DM 8G+™ inputs and outputs afford the ultimate in
simplicity, providing a true one-wire interface for remote sources and display
devices. Easily add up to two DM 8G+ transmitters to provide connectivity for HD
AV sources and computers at a table or lectern. Connect two DM 8G+ receivers
(with the DMPS-300-C) to provide independent signal routing and control for two
separate projectors or flat panel displays. Supporting wire lengths up to 330 feet (100
meters), DM 8G+ can also provide an ideal interface to a central DigitalMedia
switcher as part of a larger multi-room or room-combining system.
DM 8G+ requires just one CAT5e wire run to each location, transporting
high-definition video, audio, and Ethernet for each device without compromise.
Power over DM (PoDM) is supplied over the same CAT5e connection, providing a
centralized power source for all compatible transmitters and receivers.

HDBaseT
Crestron DigitalMedia 8G+ technology is designed using HDBaseT Alliance
specifications, ensuring interoperability with third-party HDBaseT products. Via DM
8G+, the DMPS-100/200/300-C can be connected directly to any HDBaseT
compliant source or display device without requiring a DM transmitter or receiver.

HDMI requires an appropriate adapter or interface cable to accommodate a DVI or DisplayPort
Multimode signal. CBL-HD-DVI interface cables available separately.
2.
For DM 8G+ wiring up to 330 ft (100 m) between devices, use Crestron DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia
8G cable, Crestron DM-CBL DigitalMedia cable, Crestron DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D cable, or
generic CAT5e (or better) UTP or STP. Shielded cable and connectors are recommended to safeguard
against unpredictable environmental electrical noise which may impact performance at resolutions
above 1080p. Refer to the Crestron DigitalMedia Design Guide (Doc. 4546) for complete system
design guidelines. All cable sold separately.

Supplying power over DM (PoDM) requires external power pack, sold separately.
