USB-EXT-DM
Introduction
1
The Crestron
®
USB-EXT-DM consists of the
USB-EXT-DM-LOCAL and the
USB-EXT-DM-REMOTE (sold separately).
The USB-EXT-DM enables USB signal routing
under the control of a Crestron control system
or DigitalMedia™ system. As part of a
DigitalMedia system, the USB-EXT-DM
provides seamless routing of all types of USB
signals alongside video and audio. Without a
control system or DigitalMedia system, the
USB-EXT-DM can be used to provide USB
extension over a LAN or in a point-to-point
configuration.
The USB-EXT-DM-LOCAL connects to virtually
any host device—such as a computer, media
server, or game system—and, typically, also
connects to an Ethernet switch. When
integrated with a DigitalMedia system, the
USB-EXT-DM-LOCAL can connect directly to a
DM-TX series transmitter (for example, the
DM-TX-201-C).
The USB-EXT-DM-REMOTE connects to USB
peripheral devices—such as keyboards, mice,
and game controllers. Up to four peripheral
devices can be connected. When integrated
with a DigitalMedia system, the
USB-EXT-DM-REMOTE can connect directly
to a DM-RMC series receiver (for example, the
DM-RMC-SCALER-C).
1
Attaching the Brackets
Attach the two supplied brackets to the
rear of the extender using the four
supplied Phillips head screws (two screws
for each bracket).
Mounting onto a Flat Surface
With the two brackets attached to the
extender, attach the brackets to a flat
surface using the outer middle mounting
hole of each bracket and the appropriate
mounting screws (not supplied).
Mounting
2
Using the two supplied brackets, mount a
USB-EXT-DM extender onto any of the
following:
● Flat surface, such as a table or wall
● Rack rail
● DigitalMedia receiver (DM-RMC-200
series or DM-RMC-SCALER series only)
For mounting instructions, refer to the
sections that follow.
Mounting onto a Rack Rail
With the two
brackets attached to the
extender, attach either the left or right
bracket to the rack rail using the top
and bottom mounting holes and the
appropriate mounting screws
(not supplied).
Option 2:
Rack Mount
Holes

Head
Screws (4)
Mounting onto a DigitalMedia Receiver
A USB-EXT-DM extender can be mounted onto
DigitalMedia receivers such as the DM-RMC-200-C,
DM-RMC-200-S, DM-RMC-200-S2,
DM-RMC-SCALER-C, DM-RMC-SCALER-S, and
DM-RMC-SCALER-S2.
To mount an extender onto the appropriate
DigitalMedia receiver, do the following:
1. Remove the two Phillips head screws from the
front of the DigitalMedia receiver and retain the
screws for use in step 3 below.
2. With the brackets attached to the extender, align
the innermost hole of each bracket with the
corresponding hole on the front of the DigitalMedia
receiver.
3. Using the two screws removed in step 1, secure
the brackets of the extender to the front of the
DigitalMedia receiver.

Sample Application of USB Extension over a LAN
NOTE: The USB-EXT-DM is engineered to deliver maximum compatibility with the widest possible range of devices.
Crestron does not guarantee that all USB devices or hosts are compatible with the USB-EXT-DM.
NOTE: The USB-EXT-DM supports high-speed (480 Mbps) USB devices; however, DM 8G+ Ethernet links support
speeds up to 100 Mbps only. If higher bandwidth is required, ensure that the USB-EXT-DM is communicating via an
all-gigabit Ethernet network.
