Models & Accessories

The DM-TX-200-C-2G provides an interface for computers and high-definition AV sources as part of a complete Crestron® DigitalMedia™ system. It is ideal for wall, lectern, and floor box applications in a boardroom, classroom, auditorium, or residence. It functions as a DM 8G+® transmitter and switcher, providing HDMI®, VGA, and analog audio inputs along with a USB HID host port. In addition to DM 8G+, it is also compatible with HDBaseT®, allowing it to be connected directly to the input of an HDBaseT certified display device. It connects to the head end or display location using a single CAT type twisted pair cable.^[1] Standard gang-box mounting (2-3/4 in. deep) allows for installation adjacent to an Ethernet jack (Crestron MP-WP183 or equivalent) for a total connectivity solution.^[2]

DigitalMedia 8G+®
As the leader in HDMI and control system technologies, Crestron developed DigitalMedia (DM®) to deliver the first complete HD AV distribution system to take HDMI to a higher level. DigitalMedia allows virtually any mix of HDMI and other AV sources to be distributed throughout a home, office, school, or virtually any other facility. The latest generation of DM is called DigitalMedia 8G™ (DM 8G®). Engineered for ultra high-bandwidth and ultimate scalability, DM 8G provides a true one-wire lossless transport for moving high-definition video, audio, Ethernet, and control signals over a choice of twisted pair or fiber optic cable.

DM 8G over twisted pair copper wire is called DigitalMedia 8G+ (DM 8G+). DM 8G+ handles uncompressed Full HD 1080p video signals with support for HDCP, as well as computer signals up to WUXGA. All signals are transported over a single CAT type cable, supporting distances up to 330 feet (100 m) using Crestron DM 8G Cable or CAT5e.^[1]

HDBaseT® Certified
Crestron DigitalMedia 8G+ technology is designed using HDBaseT Alliance specifications, ensuring interoperability with other HDBaseT certified products. Via its DM 8G+ output, the DM-TX-200-C-2G can be connected directly to an HDBaseT-compliant device without requiring a DM receiver.

Multimedia Computer/AV Interface
The DM-TX-200-C-2G provides simple switching between two inputs. The inputs can be configured to switch automatically or be selected through a Crestron control system. Inputs include:

HDMI — Provides a digital multimedia input for mobile devices, computers, and AV sources with resolutions up to HD 1080p60 and WUXGA. Also handles DVI and Dual-Mode DisplayPort™ signals using an appropriate adapter or interface cable.^[3]
PC — This VGA type input handles analog RGB signals up to WUXGA 1920x1200 pixels, as well as analog video up to 1080p60.^[4] A 1/8 in. (3.5 mm) stereo audio input is included to accommodate the analog audio signal from an unbalanced line-level source or headphone output.

Note: Analog audio breakaway capability enables the analog audio input to be used with either video input.

A single CAT type cable connects the DM-TX-200-C-2G to a DM switcher or receiver, or to an HDBaseT device, transporting video, audio, control, networking, and power signals all through one simple RJ45 connection.^[2,5,6] Used with a single DM 8G+ Receiver/Room Controller and optional Crestron control system, the DM-TX-200-C-2G affords a simple solution for extending a computer or AV signal to a single display. As part of a larger system using a DM-MD series switcher, multiple DM-TX-200-C-2Gs may be installed to enable the distribution of several sources at different locations to feed multiple displays throughout any room or larger facility.

USB HID Signal Extension
The DM-TX-200-C-2G functions as a keyboard/mouse extender, allowing a USB HID-compliant keyboard and/or mouse to be connected at the wall plate and used to control a computer or other component located at the central equipment rack or some other location.

CEC Embedded Device Control
DigitalMedia provides an alternative to conventional IR and RS-232 device control by harnessing the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) signal embedded in HDMI. Through its connection to the control system, the DM-TX-200-C-2G provides a gateway for controlling the connected source device right through the HDMI connection, potentially eliminating the need for any dedicated control wires or IR emitters.

Simple Wall Box Mounting
The DM-TX-200-C-2G is designed to be installed using a 2-3/4 in. deep 2-gang electrical box or plaster ring (not included). It also fits a 2-gang opening in a typical 6 in. deep floor box. The DM cable connects to the rear of the transmitter via a shielded RJ45 DM port. The unit can be powered using a PW-2407WUL power pack (sold separately), or PoDM (Power over DigitalMedia) for a true one-wire solution.^[5,6] An array of indicators is provided for easy setup and troubleshooting.

For DM 8G+ or HDBaseT wiring, use Crestron DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia 8G Cable or third-party CAT5e (or better) UTP or STP. (Crestron legacy DM-CBL DigitalMedia Cable or DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D Cable may also be used.) The maximum wire length for DM 8G+ is 330 ft (100 m) between devices. Shielded cable and connectors are recommended to safeguard against unpredictable environmental electrical noise which may impact performance at resolutions above 1080p. Refer to the Crestron DigitalMedia Design Guide, Doc. #4546 for complete system design guidelines. DM 8G+ is compatible with HDBaseT Alliance specifications for connecting to HDBaseT compliant equipment. All wire and cables are sold separately.
The DM-TX-200-C-2G does not include an external Ethernet port. Local Ethernet connectivity for external devices requires a MP-WP183 or equivalent Ethernet jack with a dedicated LAN connection.
The HDMI input requires an appropriate adapter or interface cable to accommodate a DVI or Dual-Mode DisplayPort signal. CBL-HD-DVI interface cables are available separately.
The PC input can actually accept component, composite, and S-Video signals through an appropriate adapter (not included), or via direct interface to Crestron MPS Series products. However, input sync detection is not provided for composite or S-Video signal types through this connection.
To power the DM-TX-200-C-2G using PoDM (Power over DigitalMedia) requires connection to a DM switcher or other equipment that has a PoDM PSE port. Any wiring that is connected to a PoDM PSE port is for intra-building use only and should not be connected to a line that runs outside of the building in which the PSE is located.
To power the DM-TX-200-C-2G using HDBaseT PoE requires connection to a switcher or other equipment that has an HDBaseT PoE PSE port. Any wiring that is connected to an HDBaseT PoE PSE port is for intra-building use only and should not be connected to a line that runs outside of the building in which the PSE is located.
