Crestron says its DMCI (DigitalMedia Card Interface) solution is a compact, rack-mountable enclosure designed to house a single DM Input Card to accept any AV source, including all analogue audio and video, computer, HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort signals, and output those signals as HDMI. DMCI also handles USB-HID over Ethernet for remote wireless keyboard/mouse control.

Crestron explains, combining the DMCI with a HD-MD8X1 or HD-MD8X2 QuickSwitch HD HDMI switcher, provides an integrated source switching solution for home cinemas, meeting rooms and classrooms that include a variety of different signal formats that all must be displayed on 1080p displays via HDMI. DMCI manages HDCP, EDID and CEC data communication, and works as a DM receiver as part of a complete Crestron DigitalMedia system.
The manufacturer says there is a wide selection of DMC input cards available to match the audio/video signal type required, allowing integrators to select the type and quantity needed for each job.
Crestron says the DSP-enhanced DMC-HD-DSP card accepts HDMI signals containing multi-channel surround sound audio and also provides a two-channel down-mix signal, delivering the choice of either two-channel or multi-channel audio to the HDMI output.
