Crestron International

Crestron has announced the release of the DM-MD32X32, the largest matrix switcher available in the DigitalMedia™ (DM) product line. Designed for facility-wide and whole-house distribution, the 32X32 – just like the DM-MD8X8 and DM-MD16X16 – is field configurable and card-based, with a wide variety of input and output cards from which to choose.

DM, the only complete, integrated solution for the digital age, accepts and distributes any combination of AV signals including VGA, HDMI, DVI, DisplayPort, 3G-SDI, Ethernet and USB keyboard/mouse control (for controlling a computer or other host device at a different location). Transmission can run hundreds of metres over a single twisted pair cable or up to around 300 metres via fibre, with every AV signal preserved in its native video resolution and audio format.

“Our DM-MD switchers are true matrix switchers, routing a mix of AV and data signals to multiple displays and receivers,” explained Robin van Meeuwen, Managing Director at Crestron UK. “There isn’t another digital matrix switcher on the market that can deliver 32 inputs at this price point, and only Crestron can offer the versatility and functionality of DM.”

The DM-32X32 automatically manages all the digital signal data to work right out of the box. The wide selection of input and output cards makes it easy for integrators to choose just the right combination of features needed in each project. An intuitive on-line configurator is provided to Crestron dealers to streamline the design process. Built-in software tools make it simple to troubleshoot, commission and optimise system performance.
