QuickSwitch HD

Handling high-definition digital media means handling HDCP, the encryption scheme that content providers use to protect their DVDs, Blu-ray discs, and broadcast signals against unauthorized copying. Viewing HDCP encrypted content requires a source device to “authenticate” each display and signal processor in the system and issue it a “key” before the content can be viewed. Ordinarily, this causes a complete loss of signal for up to 15 seconds each time a new source or display is selected anywhere in the system. In addition, every source device has a limited number of keys available; therefore, if too many displays are connected, the source stops outputting a signal without warning. Crestron QuickSwitch HD, however, manages the keys for every HDCP-compliant device in the system, maintaining continuous authentication for each device to ensure fast and reliable routing of any source to any number of display devices.

Auto-Locking Technology

Crestron Auto-Locking technology enables super fast signal switching by instantaneously configuring every device in the signal path as soon as the signal hits the first device. Whether switching between sources or TV channels, Auto-Locking significantly reduces the time it takes each device to sense the new signal and configure itself to handle the changes, virtually eliminating any noticeable gap while switching.

EDID Format Management

DigitalMedia manages the EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) that modern digital devices use to communicate their capabilities. Through the DM switchers, the format and resolution capabilities of each device can be assessed, allowing the installer to configure EDID appropriately for the most desirable and predictable behavior.





A Scaler for Every Display

Scaling capability can be added to any DM system using select DM receivers (sold separately) with built-in high-definition scalers. By placing an independent high-performance scaler at every display device, DigitalMedia delivers the most flexible and user-friendly solution for routing multiple disparate sources to many different display devices. This “Distributed Scaler Approach” ensures an optimal image on every screen regardless of the sources that are selected. Distributed scaling allows a high-resolution computer source to be viewed on any display in the building. It also allows a high-definition 3D source to be viewed on lower resolution

2D displays without compromising the original signal, letting a theater’s full HD

1080p 3D image be shared with smaller, lesser displays in other rooms.

Built-In Ethernet Switch

In addition to transporting digital video and audio, DigitalMedia can also extend

10/100 Ethernet to each display and source device via select DM receivers and transmitters (sold separately), providing high-speed connectivity for any room device that requires a LAN connection. Ethernet is also utilized internally by the Crestron control bus to manage all of the DM devices in the system and provide display control in each room. Through its Gigabit Ethernet port, the DM switchers provide a single-point connection to a corporate LAN or home network, requiring just one IP address for the complete DM system.

USB Switch

Along with video, audio, and Ethernet, DigitalMedia also provides for the routing of

USB HID signals, allowing a USB HID compliant keyboard or mouse at one location to control a computer or media server in another location, whether just across the room or in another building. USB HID connectivity is provided through select DM receivers and transmitters (sold separately).

Crestron also offers USB extenders (sold separately) to enable the routing of virtually any type of USB peripheral to any host device, all managed through the

DigitalMedia system. Connect a local extender module (USB-EXT-DM-LOCAL) to each computer, media server, game system, annotator, and any other host for which communication or control is desired. Install a remote extender module

(USB-EXT-DM-REMOTE) at every display location to connect keyboards, mice, game controllers, whiteboards, flash drives, cameras, and mobile devices. Every module communicates with a DM switcher over the local Ethernet network or via a direct connection to the LAN port of a DM transmitter or receiver.

CEC Embedded Device Control

The primary objective of every Crestron system is to enable precisely the control desired for a seamless user experience. DigitalMedia provides an alternative to conventional IR and RS-232 device control by harnessing the CEC signal embedded in HDMI. Through its connection to the control system, the DM switchers provide a gateway for controlling many devices through their HDMI or HDBaseT connections, potentially eliminating the need for any dedicated control wires or IR emitters.

Through proper CEC signal management, DigitalMedia allows control of each device as desired.



Touch Screen Front Panel

Simplified setup and operation of the DM switchers are provided through a large 15” color touch screen. Through its user-friendly graphical interface, the touch screen enables the routing of AV signals with the ability to view resolution and format information for every input and output signal, and even preview a live video image of any input. Configuration and diagnostics capabilities include monitoring of the status for each I/O blade, fan tray, and power supply, configuration of Ethernet settings, and updating of the firmware for all connected devices.

Web Browser Control

The DM switchers also include a built-in web server, enabling full operation and monitoring through any networked computer with a web browser. Password protection prevents unauthorized access to this feature.

Hot-Swappable Redundant Power Supplies

The DM switchers deliver enhanced reliability for mission-critical applications, employing hot-swappable redundant power supplies to ensure continuous operation throughout the life of the system. Two power supplies occupy the DM-MD64X64; three power supplies occupy the DM-MD128X128. Each of the onboard power supplies has a demonstrated MTBF (Mean Time Between Failures) of over a half million hours. In the unlikely event of an individual power supply fault, the

DM-MD64X64 continues to operate unhindered on only one power supply and the

DM-MD128X128 continues to operate on only two power supplies. Clear indication of such a fault is provided on the unit’s front panel, and the power supplies can also be remotely monitored via a control system touch screen, mobile device, or Crestron

Fusion RV Remote Asset Management Software. A modular hot-swappable plug-in design allows any power supply to be replaced in seconds without shutting down the switcher or removing it from the equipment rack.

NOTE: Although the DM-MD64X64 and DM-MD128X128 continue to operate if a single power supply fails, it is recommended that the failed power supply be replaced as soon as possible to restore power supply redundancy.

Setup

Network Wiring

When wiring the DM network, consider the following:

• Use Crestron Certified Wire.

• Use Crestron power supplies for Crestron equipment.

CAUTION: Failure to use Crestron power supplies could cause equipment damage or void the Crestron warranty.

• Provide sufficient power to the system.

• The maximum DigitalMedia 8G fiber (DM 8G fiber) cable length is

1000 feet (300 meters) using CRESFIBER8G fiber optic cable or 500 feet

(150 meters) using standard CRESFIBER, CRESFIBER-SINGLE-SC, or third-party OM3 simplex multimode fiber optic cable.

• The maximum DigitalMedia 8G single-mode fiber (DM 8G SM fiber) cable length is 7.5 miles (12 km) using CRESFIBER8G-SM or third-party

G.652.D (or better) single-mode fiber optic cable.

• The maximum cable length for DigitalMedia 8G+ (DM 8G+) or HDBaseT is 330 feet (100 meters) for resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 and 1920 x 1200

(including 1080p60 and 2K) using DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia 8G cable,

DM-CBL DigitalMedia cable, DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D cable, or third-party CAT5e (or better) UTP or STP. For higher resolutions

(including 4K), the maximum wire length is 230 feet (70 meters) using

DM-CBL-8G or 165 feet (50 meters) using DM-CBL, DM-CBL-D, or

Refer to the Crestron DigitalMedia Design Guide (Doc.4546) for complete system design guidelines.

The DM switchers also use high-speed Ethernet for communications between the device and a control system, computer, media server and other IP-based devices. For general information on connecting Ethernet devices in a Crestron system, refer to the

Crestron e-Control  Reference Guide (Doc. 6052) at www.crestron.com/manuals.



For information specifically related to Ethernet connectivity using DigitalMedia devices, refer to the Crestron IP Considerations Guide for the IT Professional

(Doc. 4579) at www.crestron.com/dmresources.

Ethernet Setup

The DM switcher can operate in DHCP or Static IP Address mode. When DHCP is enabled, the IP address is set dynamically. When DHCP is disabled, the IP address is set manually.

A fully loaded DM-MD64X64 and DM-MD128X128 can contain up to 145 and 289

Ethernet-enabled devices, respectively, with each device requiring its own IP address. As a result, the DM switchers always operate in Private Network Mode

(PNM) to control the Ethernet settings of DM endpoints (transmitters and receivers).

PNM allows only the DM switchers to require an IP address from the public network, thereby reducing the amount of IP configuration necessary and allowing the

DM endpoints to be swappable without reconfiguration. In a DM system containing a single DM switcher, the DM switcher is the only DM device that consumes an IP address. All DM I/O blades and DM endpoints that are connected to the DM switcher are hidden from the public network and cannot be reached directly; instead, all communication is managed through the DM switcher. As a result, PNM creates a completely private IP network for all DM blades and endpoints.

NOTE: When connected to a DM switcher, a DM endpoint must not have its convenience Ethernet port connected to the LAN. A DM endpoint receives its network connection via the DM switcher. The convenience Ethernet port of a DM endpoint is available for connection to a network device such as a PC, Blu-ray player, or TV.

For installation in a corporate or university setting, PNM does not heavily impact the network. Ethernet ports on DM endpoints remain visible to the public network. PNM also prevents RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol) traffic from reaching the public network.

When multiple DM switchers are cascaded, a unique system ID must be assigned to each switcher. The system ID of each switcher determines the internal IP address to be used by each device in the DM system. The system ID can be set using the front panel touch screen or from a web browser.

With PNM always enabled, a VLAN (virtual LAN) is not used to separate public and private Ethernet traffic. Instead, two physically separate Ethernet ports divide public traffic from private traffic. The main CPU is the only device connected to both networks. The CPU may receive an instruction from a device on the public network, such as a Crestron control system, and may then create a new instruction for a private device such as a DM blade or endpoint. Ethernet packets from the public network, however, can never traverse the private network. Similarly, Ethernet packets from the private network can never traverse the public network.



Ventilation

Rack Mounting


Identity Code

The IP ID can be set from the front panel touch screen or from a web browser. The

IP IDs of multiple DM switchers in the same system must be unique.

When setting the IP ID, consider the following:

• The IP ID of each unit must match an IP ID specified in the Crestron

Studio™ or SIMPL Windows program.

• Each device using IP to communicate with a control system must have a unique IP ID.

DigitalMedia devices that receive their IP address configuration via the DM switcher also receive their IP table configuration from the DM-MD64X64.

Installation

The DM switcher should be used in a well-ventilated area. The venting holes should not be obstructed under any circumstances.

To prevent overheating, do not operate this product in an area that exceeds the environmental temperature range listed in the table of specifications. Consider using forced air ventilation and/or increasing the spacing between units to reduce overheating.

Contact with thermal insulating materials should be avoided on all sides of the unit.

NOTE: If the DM switcher detects an unsafe operating temperature, it will enter low power protection mode and, as a result, video functionality will be disabled.

The DM switcher can be mounted in a rack or stacked with other equipment.

WARNING: Do not lift the DM switcher using the power supply handles. Doing so will damage the unit and can cause bodily injury.

NOTE: The DM switcher has rack ears integrated into the chassis. They cannot be removed.

NOTE: To facilitate installation, four handles are provided on the front and on the rear of the DM-MD128X128. If desired, the handles on the front of the unit can be removed after installation using a Phillips head screwdriver.

To attach the unit to a rack, use four screws (not supplied) for each rack ear.

WARNING: To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, observe the following guidelines:

• When mounting this unit in a partially filled rack, load the rack from the bottom to the top with the heaviest component at the bottom of the rack.

• If the rack is provided with stabilizing devices, install the stabilizers before mounting or servicing the unit in the rack.



Stacking

Crestron DM-MD64X64/DM-MD128X128

NOTE: Observe the following guidelines when installing equipment in a rack:

• Elevated Operating Ambient - If installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient. Therefore, consideration should be given to installing the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma) specified by the manufacturer.

• Reduced Air Flow - Installation of the equipment in a rack should be such that the amount of airflow required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.

• Mechanical Loading - Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.

• Circuit Overloading - Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.

Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.

• Reliable Earthing - Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained. Particular attention should be given to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (e.g., use of power strips).

NOTE: If rack mounting is not required, rubber feet are provided for tabletop mounting or stacking. Apply the feet near the corner edges on the underside of the unit.

Four “feet” are provided with the DM switcher so that if the unit is not rack mounted, the rubber feet can provide stability when the unit is placed on a flat surface or stacked. These feet should be attached near the corner edges on the underside of the unit prior to the hookup procedure. Refer to the following illustration for placement of the feet.



Foot Placement for the DM Switchers (DM-MD64X64 Shown)

Place Feet in Corners

Hardware Hookup

Make the necessary connections as called out in the following illustrations. Refer to

“Network Wiring” on page 25. Apply power after all connections have been made.

NOTE: Ensure that the unit is properly grounded by connecting the chassis ground lug to an earth ground (building steel).

NOTE: To prevent overheating, do not operate this product in an area that exceeds the environmental temperature range listed in the table of specifications.

GNU General Public License

Version 2, June 1991

Copyright (C) 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document but changing it is not allowed.

PREAMBLE

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public

License is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software--to make sure the software is free for all its users.

This General Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation's software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it. (Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.)

You can apply it to your programs too.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs and that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights.

These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have. You must make sure that they too receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.

Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors' reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The "Program" below refers to any such program or work, and a "work based on the Program" means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the

Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the

Program (independent of having been made by running the Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program's source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this

License along with the Program.



You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions: a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change. b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License. c) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program and can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License and its terms do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire whole and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Program.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program (or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following: a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of

Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection b above.)

The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void and will automatically terminate your rights under this

License. However, parties who have received copies or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by


Crestron DM-MD64X64/DM-MD128X128 DigitalMedia Switchers modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so and all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software

Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

NO WARRANTY

11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE, THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO

THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE

COPYRIGHT HOLDERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY

KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF

MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND

PERFORMANCE OF THE PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE

COST OF ALL NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.

12. IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT

HOLDER OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED

ABOVE, BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR

CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT

NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR

THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH

HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
