DigitalMedia 8G+
Crestron exclusive DM 8G+ technology affords the ultimate in simplicity, providing a true one-wire interface for distributing high-definition video, audio, and control signals to multiple displays throughout a residence or commercial structure. Simply connect a DM 8G+ receiver[2] at each flat-panel display or projector for a complete AV and control interface. Just one CAT5e wire run to each receiver transports pure, uncompressed HD video, 7.1 surround sound audio, 10/100 Ethernet, and control signals for a fully integrated media system with minimal wiring. DM 8G+ allows for wire runs up to 330 feet (100 meters) using CAT5e or Crestron DigitalMedia 8G Cable.[1]
