The DM-MD8X1-4K-C from Crestron® provides an ultra high-definition presentation switcher with advanced features optimally suited for installation in a huddle room, conference room, or classroom. It integrates a multi-format auto-switcher, 4K video scaler, mic preamp, audio DSP, and control interface, all into one compact device that mounts conveniently under a table or in an equipment rack. Built-in Crestron Connect It™ functionality affords a complete collaboration solution that’s easy and affordable to deploy in any meeting space. Built-in DM 8G+® and HDBaseT® connectivity affords a one-wire, long-distance wiring solution for a single display device, or for integration as part of a larger DigitalMedia™ distribution system.
The DM-MD8X1-4K-C works out-of-the-box to provide automatic switching between four HDMI® or VGA sources, plus on/off control of the display device. Outputs include HDMI, DM 8G+ or HDBaseT, and balanced stereo audio. Built-in 4K scaling ensures the highest possible image quality and compatibility with the widest range of sources and displays. Easy web browser setup allows for configuration of the microphone input, audio DSP, and other settings. Centralized monitoring is supported using Crestron Fusion® Cloud, and fully-programmable control can be enabled through integration with a 3-Series Control System®.
Crestron Connect It™ Crestron Connect It is a cost-effective, simple-to-use presentation solution that works seamlessly with the DM-MD8X1-4K-C. Simply add up to four Crestron Connect It Cable Caddies (TT-100 series [2]) to provide BYOD connectivity and one-touch control for multiple participants around a conference table. Four USB ports on the DM-MD8X1-4K-C provide power and communications for each cable caddy.
4K Ultra HD The DM-MD8X1-4K-Chandles 4K and Ultra HD video signals, which is essential to ensure support for the latest generation of computers and monitors with native resolutions beyond 1080p and WUXGA.
Multi-format Auto-Switcher The DM-MD8X1-4K-C provides high-performance automatic switching betweenfour groups of inputs, each including HDMI, VGA, and unbalanced stereo audio. The HDMI inputs are compatible with DVI and Dual-Mode DisplayPort sources[3], and the VGA inputs can handled RGB, composite, S-Video, and component video sources[4]. Digital audio is supported by the HDMI inputs, pluseachanalog audio input may be used in combination with its corresponding VGA or HDMI video input. Input auto-detection eliminates the need to configure the inputs —simply connect your source and the DM-MD8X1-4K-C selects the right audio and video combination. The switched video signal is routed to one HDMI output and one DM 8G+ output simultaneously. The DM 8G+ output is compatible with HDBaseT.
4K Scaler With its high-performance 4K video scaler on board, the DM-MD8X1-4K-Censures an optimal image from every video sourceon practically any display device. It allows SD, HD, and all types of computer sources to look their best on Ultra HD and 4K displays, and it allows sources with resolutions above HD 1080p to be viewed reliably on 1080p and lower resolution displays. It accepts any input resolution, from standard definition NTSC 480i to ultra high-definition 4K DCI, and scales it perfectly to match the native resolution of any screen up to 4K DCI (4096 x 2160).Interlaced sources are converted to progressive scan using motion-adaptive deinterlacing.
