DigitalMedia™ Switchers
Introduction
The DM-MD64X64 and DM-MD128X128 are modular matrix switchers designed for
large-scale projects demanding ultimate reliability. They deliver ultrafast signal routing
and pure, lossless distribution of HDMI®and other signals to support all of the digital media
players, HDTV receivers, computers, cameras, and display devices in any modern facility.
Featuring a scalable blade-based design, the DM-MD64X64 and DM-MD128X128
accommodate inputs and outputs in a rack-mountable design. Occupying 14U of rack
space, the DM-MD64X64 is field configurable to handle up to 64 inputs and 64 outputs.
Occupying 24U of rack space, the DM-MD128X128 is field configurable to handle up to
128 inputs and 128 outputs. Through a selection of hot-swappable input and output blades
as well as a variety of DigitalMedia™ transmitters and receivers, the DM-MD64X64 and
DM-MD128X128 support a wide range of signal types.
The front of the DM-MD64X64 and DM-MD128X128 provides a touch screen that enables
simplified setup and operation of the switcher. A built-in web server is also provided to
enable full operation and monitoring on a computer using a web browser.
This manual provides information about the following:
•Physical description of the connectors, controls, and indicators on the DigitalMedia
switchers
•Ethernet setup
•Web interface overview
•Firmware upgrade
•Troubleshooting
In addition, information about each of the DigitalMedia blades is provided in the appendix of
this manual. For information about installing the DigitalMedia switchers, refer to the
DM-MD64X64/DM-MD128X128 DO Guide (Doc. 7328) at www.crestron.com/manuals.
