The DM NUX USB over Network with Routing (DM‑NUX‑L2 and DM‑NUX‑R2) deliver reliable, high‑speed USB signal extension and routing for USB 1.0, 1.1, and 2.0 devices throughout a home, business, or campus for distances up to 330 ft (100 m).2 Two types of USB endpoints are available:

  • DM-NUX-L2 - Provides connectivity for a single USB host (computer, media server, codec, etc.)
  • DM-NUX-R2 - Provides connectivity for up to four USB devices (keyboards, whiteboards, mobile devices, etc.) at one location

USB Signal Routing
When integrated with a DigitalMedia™ system, the USB endpoints provide seamless routing of USB signals alongside video and audio. The USB endpoints can connect directly to a DM® transmitter, DM receiver, or Ethernet network via CAT5e (or better) cable.2 From any room with a video display, you can switch between several computers, media servers, and game consoles anywhere in the building and control each one using a mouse and keyboard, game controller, or electronic whiteboard.1

Virtual Hub
Using Virtual Hub technology, five DM-NUX-R2 endpoints may simultaneously be connected to a single DM-NUX-L2 endpoint. Creating this virtual hub allows numerous USB devices to control a single host device (such as a PC).1 The USB signals are transported over the local network and managed through a Crestron control system.

USB HID Connectivity
The USB endpoints expand on DigitalMedia’s built-in USB HID routing abilities, adding enhanced USB connectivity to DM transmitters, receivers, or switchers without requiring any additional wiring. Simply connect a USB endpoint to the LAN port of a DM transmitter or receiver, or to a port on the local area network.2

Point-to-Point Connectivity
The USB endpoints may be used to provide simple, point‑to‑point USB signal extension, either over an Ethernet LAN or a dedicated CAT5e (or better) cable.2 At least one remote (device) endpoint (DM-NUX-R2) and one local (host) endpoint (DM-NUX-L2) are required to form a working system. The endpoints are sold individually to accommodate any system configuration.

NOTE: For alternative point‑to‑point USB signal extension, refer to the USB over Category Cable Extender Wall Plates (USB‑EXT‑2‑REMOTE‑1G and USB-EXT-2-LOCAL-1G) or the USB over Category Cable Extenders (USB‑EXT‑3‑KIT).

Endpoint Compatibility
The DM-NUX-L2 and DM-NUX-R2 are compatible with the DM‑NUX‑L2‑1G and DM‑NUX‑R2‑1G wallplates and DM NVX® endpoints that support USB 2.0 signal extension.

  • USB local (host) or remote (device) endpoint sold individually for maximum flexibility
  1. The USB extender is engineered to deliver maximum compatibility with the widest possible range of devices. Crestron does not guarantee that all USB devices or hosts are compatible with the USB extender. Certain USB devices may require additional driver installation if not directly supported by the computer’s operating system. A web camera may not be used when five or more DM‑NUX‑R2 endpoints are paired. Video from two cameras connected to a DM‑NUX‑R2 may not be viewed on different applications simultaneously. Any 1.0/1.1 devices need a USB hub.
  2. All USB extenders must be on the same layer 2 domain as the control system or DigitalMedia system. Follow accepted guidelines for proper installation and configuration of the local area network to ensure optimum performance.
  3. For a direct link connection (not on a network) between the Local and Remote extenders, use high quality, solid core CAT5e (or better) unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. To comply with the European Directive (CE), Crestron recommends using high-quality, solid core CAT5e (or better) shielded twisted pair (STP) cable. If connecting either extender through a wall jack, a stranded patch cord may be used. The maximum aggregate cable length is 330 ft (100 m) between units. The minimum cable length is 6 ft (1.8 m).
