Crestron
DM-RMC-100-1
Keyboard/Mouse Extender
When connected to a DM series switcher or DM-TX-100 transmitter
(both sold separately), the DM-RMC-100-1 functions as a
keyboard/mouse extender, allowing a USB HID (Human Interface
Device) compliant keyboard and/or mouse to be connected at the display
location, and used to control a computer or other host device located at
the central equipment rack or some other remote location.
HID devices include mice, keyboards, trackballs and composite devices
(e.g. combination keyboard/trackball devices). These devices do not
require driver installation on most common operating systems (Windows
and Mac OS).
Embedded Device Control
The primary objective of every Crestron system is to enable precisely the
control desired for a seamless user experience. The DM-RMC-100-1
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 these conventional control methods by
harnessing the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) signal embedded in
HDMI. Through its connection to the control system, the
DM-RMC-100-1 provides a gateway for controlling the display device
right through the HDMI connection, potentially eliminating the need for
any dedicated control wires or IR probes.
Low-Profile Installation
The DM-RMC-100-1 measures less than 1.3 inches (33 mm) deep and
mounts to wall, ceiling or other flat surface. All connections are
positioned along the top and bottom edges of the receiver, allowing
cables to be dressed neatly without obstruction. An array of indicators
provides for easy setup and troubleshooting, verifying the status of
connections and signal activity at a glance.
