Current Stock:

The HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 is a DM® Essentials 4K60 4:4:4 receiver designed to interoperate with a DM® Essentials transmitter or DMPS Essentials switcher for the transmission of HDMI®, RS-232, IR, and analog audio signals. A CAT5e or higher twisted pair cable (Crestron DM‑CBL‑8G or DM‑CBL‑ULTRA sold separately) is needed to connect the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 to the DM Essentials transmitter or DMPS Essentials switcher. For 1080p, WUXGA, and 2K signals, a cable length of up to 230 ft (70 m) is supported. For UHD and 4K signals, a cable length of up to 130 ft (40 m) is supported.

Interoperability with a DM Essentials Transmitter or DMPS Essentials Switcher

The DM Essentials input port of the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 must be connected to a DM Essentials output port of a DM Essentials transmitter or DMPS Essentials switcher. Examples of supported DM Essentials 4K60 4:4:4 transmitters are the HD‑TXC‑4KZ‑101 and HD‑TXCA‑4KZ‑101. Supported DMPS Essentials switchers are the HD‑PS622HD‑PS621HD‑PS402, and HD‑PS401.

The HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 can be configured and controlled only when it is used with a DMPS Essentials switcher. The web interface of the switcher can be used to configure the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101. In addition, control system programming and .AV Framework™ software support of the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 is hosted by the switcher.

4K60 4:4:4 and HDR Support

The HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 supports video resolutions up to 4K60 with 4:4:4 color sampling. HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision® video formats are also supported.

Analog Audio De-Embedding

The analog audio output port of the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 enables 2 channel LPCM audio to be extracted from the AV signal.

S/PDIF Optical Digital Audio Return

The S/PDIF optical digital audio input of the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 receives S/PDIF optical digital audio from a device (for example, a display). The S/PDIF optical digital audio output of the HD-TXCA-4KZ-101 then transmits the audio to an AV receiver. Supported S/PDIF digital audio formats are Dolby Digital®, Dolby Digital EX, DTS®, DTS ES, and LPCM up to 6 channels.

Compact, Surface-Mountable Design

Compact in design, the HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 can be mounted onto a flat surface such as a wall behind a flat-panel display or the ceiling above a projector. It can also be attached to a single rack rail in the back of an equipment cabinet. The HD‑RXCA‑4KZ‑101 can receive power from the included power pack or from the remote DM Essentials transmitter or DMPS Essentials switcher.
