  • 1 to 16 QuickMedia signal distribution amp
  • Easy single-cable connections
  • Built-in Cresnet hub/repeater

The QM-DA-16 is a 16-output QuickMedia distribution amplifier designed to distribute a single QM signal to up to 16 QuickMedia Receivers. All signal distribution is provided over inexpensive CAT5e type cable* via Crestron's exclusive QuickMedia transport, supporting high-resolution RGB, video, stereo audio and microphone signals up to a total of 450 feet end-to-end.

Up to two QuickMedia Distribution Amplifiers, Matrix Switchers, and Distribution Centers may be cascaded in a given QuickMedia signal path* to support versatile system configurations. For instance, a QM-DA-16 may be used to expand the output capacity of a QM-MD4X2 to feed a single output signal to sixteen different displays.

Every QuickMedia port on the rear panel is accompanied by a Cresnet port with 24V DC power distribution built in to simplify termination of the QuickMedia and Cresnet wiring. A built-in Cresnet hub provides 3 isolated segments, each supporting 3000 feet of Cresnet cabling and approximately 20 Cresnet devices.
