  1. The maximum cable length for DigitalMedia 8G+ (DM 8G+) or HDBaseT is dependent upon the type of cable and resolution of the video signal. Refer to the “Maximum Cable Lengths” table for a detailed overview. Crestron legacy cable models DM-CBL DigitalMedia Cable and DM-CBL-D DigitalMedia D Cable support the same resolutions and cable lengths as CAT5e. Shielded cable and connectors are required when bundling multiple cables in a wire run, and are recommended for all applications 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.
  2. 4K60 4:4:4 performance and HDR support require the use of HDMI and DisplayPort cables and couplers with a minimum TMDS bandwidth of 18 Gbps. If 4K60 4:2:0 or 4K30 4:4:4 performance is acceptable, cables and couplers with a minimum bandwidth of 10.2 Gbps may be used. Please be aware that bandwidth loss is cumulative, so performance may be reduced when inserting multiple cables and couplers inline.
  3. The HDMI inputs can accommodate a DVI or Dual-Mode DisplayPort signal using an appropriate adapter or interface cable. CBL-HD-DVI interface cables are available separately.
  4. To power the using HDBaseT PoE requires connection to a switcher or other equipment that has an HDBaseT PoE PSE port. Wiring that connects to a HDBaseT PoE+ PSE port is for intrabuilding use only
  5. To power the using PoDM+ (Power over DigitalMedia Plus) requires connection to a DM switcher or other DigitalMedia equipment that has a PoDM+ PSE port. Wiring that connects to a PoDM+ PSE port is for intrabuilding use only.
  6. The HDMI output can accommodate a DVI or Dual-Mode DisplayPort signal using an appropriate adapter or interface cable. CBL-HD-DVI interface cables are available separately.
  7. USB over Ethernet Extender Modules are sold separately. Refer to the Crestron USB over Ethernet Extenders (USB‑EXT‑DM‑LOCAL and USB‑EXT‑DM‑REMOTE) and Crestron USB over Ethernet Network Wall Plate Endpoints (USB‑NX2‑LOCAL‑1G and USB‑NX2‑REMOTE‑1G) spec sheets for more information.
  8. Crestron Connect It Cable Caddy (TT-100 series) sold separately. Refer to each product’s spec sheet for more information.
