iMedia Wall Plate Computer &
Video Center: IM-WCCV-M
Introduction
Features and Functions
• A simple, affordable wall plate multimedia interface
• Streamlined user controls for foolproof operation
• iMedia transport for fast and easy single cable installation
• Supports XGA resolution up to 84 feet (25.6 meters), UXGA maximu
up to 34 feet (10.4 meters)
• Supports composite video signals
• Complete system setup in minutes using iMedia Wizard software
The iMedia Transport
The iMedia (IM) transport utilizes a single CAT5e* type cable to transmit computer
RGB, video and stereo audio signals to a single projector or plasma display. A
typical XGA signal (1024 x 768 pixels at 60 Hz) can be transmitted up to 84 feet
(25.6 meters) using iMedia, while higher resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 can be
handled over shorter distances. Audio is transmitted digitally at 20-bit, 48 kHz
resolution. Control and power signals are also contained on the same wire,
eliminating the need for separate control or power cables.
* For optimum performance, Crestron strongly recommends using CRESCAT-IM cable, available from
Crestron. Other high quality, low skew (15 ns per 100 m maximum) CAT5e/CAT6 wiring may also
be used with varying performance.
Wall Plate Multimedia Interface
The IM-WCCV-M is an iMedia transmitter designed to install in a standard three-
gang electrical box, providing composite video, RGB and stereo audio inputs for
connection to the output of a computer or AV source. Installing wiring for the
IM-WCCV-M is extremely simple requiring just a single CrestCAT-IM cable for
audio and video. Up to three IM-WCCV-Ms or other IM transmitters may be
installed as part of a complete system to provide multiple input locations within the
room.

Foolproof Operation
Every iMedia system is easy and intuitive to use. A single press of the VIDEO or
PC buttons on the face of the IM-WCCV-M selects the appropriate input, lowers the
screen or lift, turns on the projector (or plasma, etc.) and routes all the signals where
they need to go. The front panel volume control affords easy adjustment of the audio
level or wireless microphone level and the entire system can be turned off at any
time by simply holding down either button for five seconds.
For systems having more than one IM transmitter, selecting an input at a given input
location overrides the previously selected input at any other location. The audio level
for each input location is controlled individually by its respective volume control.
Applications
The IM-WCCV-M is an IM transmitter. As shown in the following diagram, IM
transmitters provide input points for video and PC sources on an IM receiver.
