Introduction
Input/output (I/O) blades and the CPU blade are installed
prior to shipment of the Crestron® DM-MD64X64.
The DM-MD64X64 can contain up to eight input blades
and eight output blades. Input blades occupy input slots
1-8. Output blades occupy output slots 1-8. The following
illustration shows an input blade in input slot 1, an output
blade in output slot 8, and the CPU blade in the CPU slot.

The DigitalMedia switcher contains two power supplies to
provide load balancing and power redundancy. To apply
power to the switcher, connect the two supplied ac power
cords to the two power inlets of the switcher. Connect the
other end of the power cords to ac power using the same
ac voltage type—either 120 Vac or 220 Vac.
NOTE: The DigitalMedia™ switcher requires two 20 A
@ 100-127 Vac or two 10 A @ 200-240 Vac circuits.
