Crestron is now shipping its DMC-STR Streaming Input Card for DigitalMedia switchers.
It enables card-based Crestron DM switchers to receive a H.264 video stream over an IP network. The source can be an IP camera, a streaming server, or from a DMC-STRO streaming output card in another DM switcher.
Because DigitalMedia provides both point-to-point and streaming on a single platform, this signal can then be distributed via HDMI, HDBaseT, or fibre. Streaming removes all distance limitations and utilises existing infrastructure to enable signal distribution for applications where dedicated wiring is impractical or can’t be installed.
