The DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G provides a simple, cost-effective interface
solution for a single display device as part of a complete Crestron®
DigitalMedia™ system. It functions as a DM 8G+® receiver and control
interface, providing a single HDMI® output along with RS-232 and IR
control ports.

[1]

In addition to DM 8G+, it is also compatible with HDBaseT®,
allowing it to be connected directly to an HDBaseT certified source. Its
1-gang mountable design allows the DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G to be flush
mounted behind a flat panel display or above a ceiling mounted projector.
It can also be mounted beneath a table or attached to a suitable flat
surface using the mounting bracket provided. It connects to the head end
or source location using a single CAT type twisted pair cable.
gang-box mounting allows for installation adjacent to an Ethernet jack
(Crestron MP-WP183 or equivalent) for a total connectivity solution.

4K Ultra HD

Crestron DigitalMedia continues to advance the standard for digital AV
signal distribution, delivering the world’s first end-to-end 4K system
solution. The DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G features the latest DM 8G+
technology, providing support for the transport of 4K and Ultra HD video
signals. Support for 4K video also ensures support for the latest
generation of computers and monitors with native resolutions beyond
1080p and WUXGA.

DigitalMedia 8G+

®

Shown in black;
faceplate not included

As the leader in HDMI and control system technologies, Crestron developed
DigitalMedia (DM®) to deliver the first complete HD AV distribution system
to take HDMI to a higher level. DigitalMedia allows virtually any mix of
HDMI and other AV sources to be distributed throughout a home, office,
school, or virtually any other facility. The latest generation of DM is called
DigitalMedia 8G™ (DM 8G®). Engineered for ultra high-bandwidth and
ultimate scalability, DM 8G provides a true one-wire lossless transport for
moving high-definition video, audio, and control signals over a choice of
twisted-pair or fiber optic cable.

DM 8G over twisted-pair copper wire is called DigitalMedia 8G+ (DM 8G+).

[2]

Standard

[3]

DM 8G+ handles uncompressed Full HD 1080p, Ultra HD, 2K, and 4K video
signals with support for 3D, Deep Color, and HDCP 2.2. Audio capabilities
include support for high-bitrate 7.1 audio formats like Dolby® TrueHD and
DTS-HD Master Audio™ as well as uncompressed linear PCM. All signals
are transported over a single CAT type wire, supporting 1080p, WUXGA,
and 2K signals at distances up to 330 feet (100 m) using Crestron DM Ultra
or DM 8G Cable, or third-party CAT5e. Higher resolutions up to UHD and 4K
are supported at distances up to 330 feet (100 m) using DM Ultra Cable,
230 feet (70 m) using DM 8G Cable, or 165 feet (50 m) using CAT5e.

[2]

HDBaseT® Certified

Crestron DigitalMedia 8G+ technology is designed using HDBaseT
Alliance specifications, ensuring interoperability with other HDBaseT
certified products. Via its DM 8G+ input, the DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G can
be connected directly to an HDBaseT compliant source without requiring a
DM transmitter.

Multimedia Display Interface

A single HDMI digital AV output port is provided on the DM-RMC-4K-100­C-1G for connection to a display or other device. The HDMI output can also
handle DVI signals using an appropriate adapter or interface cable.

[4]

A single CAT type cable connects the DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G to a DM
switcher or transmitter, or to an HDBaseT source, transporting video, audio,
control, and power signals all through one simple RJ45 connection.

[2,5]

Multiple DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1Gs may be installed to handle each display
in a multiroom distribution system, all fed from a central DM-MD series
switcher. Or, a single DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G can be fed straight from a
DM 8G+ or HDBaseT transmitter, affording a simple solution for extending
a computer or AV signal to a single display.

Embedded Device Control

For controlling the connected display device, the DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G
includes built-in RS-232 and IR control ports.

[1]

It also offers an alternative
to such conventional control methods by harnessing the CEC (Consumer
Electronics Control) signal embedded in HDMI. Using CEC, many display
devices can be controlled right through their HDMI connections, eliminating
the need for any dedicated serial cables or IR emitters.

[6]

Versatile Mounting Options

The DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G is designed to be installed using a 3-1/2”
deep 1-gang electrical box or plaster ring (not included). It can also be
mounted beneath a table or attached to a suitable flat surface using the
mounting bracket provided, or it can be fastened to a single rack rail in an
equipment cabinet. The DM cable connects to the rear of the receiver via
a shielded RJ45 DM port. The unit can be powered using the wall mount
power pack (included), or via PoDM (Power over DigitalMedia) for a true
one-wire solution

[5]

. An array of indicators is provided for easy setup

and troubleshooting.

Notes:

1. The IR and RS-232 (COM) ports are only enabled when the DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G is

connected to an Ethernet-enabled DM transmitter or switcher that is addressable from a
Crestron control system. When connected to a DM switcher, the switcher must be in private
network mode.

2. The maximum cable length for DigitalMedia 8G+ (DM 8G+) or HDBaseT is dependent upon

the type of cable and resolution of the video signal. Refer to the ìMaximum Cable Lengths”
table for a detailed overview. Crestron legacy cable models DM-CBL DigitalMedia Cable and

DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D Cable support the same resolutions and cable lengths as CAT5e.

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. DM 8G+ is compatible with HDBaseT Alliance specifications for connecting to
HDBaseT compliant equipment. All wire and cables are sold separately.

3. The DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G does not include an Ethernet port. Local Ethernet connectivity

for external devices requires a MP-WP183 or equivalent Ethernet jack with a dedicated LAN
connection.

4. The HDMI output requires an appropriate adapter or interface cable to accommodate a DVI

signal. CBL-HD-DVI interface cables are available separately.

5. Receiving Power over DM (PoDM) or Power over HDBaseT (PoH) requires connection to a

switcher or other equipment that has a PoDM or PoH PSE (Power Sourcing Equipment) port.
Any wiring that is connected to a PoDM or PoH PSE port is for intra-building use only and
should not be connected to a line that runs outside of the building in which the PSE is located.

6. Supports simple pass-through of CEC when connected directly to a DM-TX-4K-100-C-1G
transmitter. Supports full management of CEC between the locally connected HDMI device and
a control system when connected to an Ethernet-enabled 4K DM transmitter or switcher that
supports CEC over HDBaseT. Refer to the spec sheet for each DM transmitter, switcher, output
card, or output blade to verify ìCEC” is listed under ìHDBaseT” in the ìCommunications” section
of the product’s specifications.

7. References to the IEEE 802.3af and 802.3at standards are used to demonstrate that PoDM
and PoH technology is similar in function to PoE and follows the same essential specifications.
The DM-RMC-4K-100-C-1G cannot be powered over Ethernet, and its DM IN port should not
be connected directly to an Ethernet network or device.
