DM-MD6X1 Transmitter
The DM-MD6X1 is a low cost digital video distribution system designed for a small conference room or classroom. It can
replace three different products: analog video extenders, digital video extenders and USB extenders. It has a variety of input
formats built into the unit enabling you to get all your analog and digital signals into the system without any DM cards. It also
has a built-in power supply to drive connected DM devices so that they don’t need local AC power.
 The DM-MD6X1 can be used as a stand-alone device with transmitters and a room controller
 The analog inputs can be expanded with an MPS or RGBHV switcher
 The digital inputs can be expanded with an HDMI 8X1 or 8X2 switcher
 Performs analog/HDMI audio conversion
 Two rack unit size
Video
The DM-MD6X1 supports all common video formats, both analog and digital, and converts them to a single video type to
simplify system design and wiring. The HDMI and DigitalMedia outputs are in parallel so they can be used simultaneously
to send video over structured wiring to the display and output to a local device.

Audio
The DM-MD6X1 cross converts all audio formats as well, so analog audio signals can be sent to a display as HDMI audio;
HDMI audio signals from laptops can be output to a traditional analog amplifier.
Audio Inputs
 HDMI and DM – 8-channel high-definition audio
 SPDIF
 Stereo analog audio
Audio Outputs:
 Stereo analog audio with volume control
 8-channel audio via the DM and HDMI outputs
USB
The DM-MD6X1 can process USB-HID keyboard and mouse signals from other DM devices in the system and relay them
to a connected PC or Mac. Separate USB signal extenders are no longer required to get control over your room PC from
the lectern or conference table. Best of all, no special drivers are required - just plug and play!
