DigitalMedia™ Room Controller & DM CAT Receiver
The DM-RMC-100 provides a convenient one-box interface solution to support
a single display device as part of a complete DigitalMedia system. It
functions as a DM CAT receiver and control interface, providing a single
HDMI output along with a variety of control ports. Its compact,
low-profile design allows the DM-RMC-100 to be installed discreetly behind
a flat panel display or above a ceiling mounted projector.

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 up
to 450 feet (137 m) using DM cable, or shorter distances using standard
CAT5e/6*. 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.

A single HDMI digital AV output port is provided on the DM-RMC-100,
supporting HDMI 1.3a w/Deep Color and HDCP, handling WUXGA computer
resolutions and 1080p60 HDTV with multi-channel HD lossless audio—all
through a single connection. The HDMI output can also handle DVI signals
using an appropriate adapter or interface cable†. In addition,
there are RS-232, IR, and Ethernet control ports provided for controlling
the display device, plus two relays for screen and lift control, and a
SENS input for connection of an optional current sensor or contact
closure.
Multiple DM-RMC-100s may be installed to handle each display in a
multi-room distribution system, all fed from a central DM-MD series
switcher. Or, a single DM-RMC-100 can be fed straight from a DM-TX-100DM-TX-100DM-TX-100DM-TX-100
or other DM CAT transmitter to provide a simple solution for extending a
computer or AV signal to feed a single display. The connection to the
switcher or transmitter requires just one DigitalMedia cable, with a
potential cable length up to 450 feet*. In lieu of a central switcher, the
DM-RMC-100's LAN port may be used to connect over Ethernet to a 2-Series
control system if needed.

When connected to a DM-MD series switcher or DM-TX-100DM-TX-100DM-TX-100DM-TX-100 transmitter, the
DM-RMC-100 functions as a keyboard/mouse extender, allowing a USB
HID-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.
Embedded Device ControlEmbedded Device ControlEmbedded Device ControlEmbedded 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 includes
built-in RS-232, IR, and Ethernet control ports to allow programmable
control of the display device connected to it. But, 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 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 InstallationLow-Profile InstallationLow-Profile InstallationLow-Profile Installation
The DM-RMC-100 mounts to a standard 2-gang, 4" square, or UK electrical
box, and sticks out only one inch from the wall surface. Connections to
the display are all positioned along the bottom edge of the receiver,
allowing cables to be dressed neatly without obstruction. The DM and LAN
connection are made behind the unit within the electrical box. An array of
indicators on the front of the DM-RMC-100 provide for easy setup and
troubleshooting, verifying the status of connections and signal activity
at a glance.
Please refer to the DigitalMedia Design Guide, Doc. #4789 for additional
information.
* For DigitalMedia CAT wiring, use DM-CBLDM-CBLDM-CBLDM-CBL DigitalMedia Cable,
CresCAT-DCresCAT-DCresCAT-DCresCAT-D, or quality CAT5e/CAT6 cable. Do NOT use low-skew cable. The
maximum allowable cable length depends on multiple factors. One or more
DM
Repeaters (Model DM-DRDM-DRDM-DRDM-DR) may be required. Refer to the Crestron
DigitalMedia Design Guide, Doc. #4789 for complete wiring guidelines.
† HDMI requires an appropriate adapter or interface cable to
accommodate a DVI signal. CBL-HD-DVICBL-HD-DVICBL-HD-DVICBL-HD-DVI interface cable available
separately.
