Includes HD-TX-301-C-E Transmitter, HD-RX-201-C-E Receiver, compatible Crestron power adapter, power cable.

Provides a simple and cost-effective high-definition AV presentation solution for classrooms and meeting spaces. It is composed of a DM Lite surface mount transmitter (HD-TX-301-C-E) and receiver (HD-RX-201-C-E), which connect together over a single CATx cable at up to 230 ft (70 m). Provides auto-switching HDMI® and VGA inputs at the transmitter, and one additional HDMI input at the receiver. Built-in scaling ensures a reliable, high-quality video image. Fully-automatic operation and web browser setup eliminate the need for a control panel, control system, or programming.

  1. For the DM Lite link cable between the TX and RX, use Crestron DM-CBL-8G DigitalMedia 8G™ cable or third-party CAT5e (or better). The maximum cable length is 230 ft (70 m). 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. All wire and cables are sold separately. DM Lite devices are not compatible with DigitalMedia 8G+® (DM 8G+®), HDBaseT®, PoE, PoDM, or any other CATx based interface or network.
  2. Crestron Connect It Cable Caddy (TT-100 series) sold separately. Refer to the TT-100 spec sheet for more information.
  3. Each 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.
  4. The VGA input can accept RGB and component video signals through an appropriate adapter (not included).
  5. The analog audio input is only active when the VGA input is selected. It can be used with an audio-only source with no video source connected. The analog audio input cannot be paired with an HDMI video input.
  6. The HDMI output requires an appropriate adapter or interface cable to accommodate a DVI signal. CBL-HD-DVI interface cables are available separately.
  7. The analog stereo audio output is only active when the input is receiving a 2-channel stereo signal via either the analog input or HDMI.
  8. EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is data embedded in an HDMI, DVI, or VGA signal that enables the display device to tell the scaler what resolutions and formats it can support, allowing the scaler to configure itself automatically to feed an optimal output signal to the display.
  9. Item(s) sold separately.
  10. Supports any input resolution and scan rate that has a pixel clock of 165 MHz or lower.
  11. The transmitter and receiver are powered together by a single wall mount power pack (included), which may be connected to either the transmitter or receiver, not both.
  12. With or without reduced blanking.
  13. With reduced blanking only.
