QuickMedia™ FlipTop Computer Center Crestron QM-FTCC
FlipTop Housing
Handsomely finished in either black anodized or brushed aluminum, the QM-FTCC
mounts flush in any tabletop surface for a clean, professional appearance. The sleek
design of the “FlipTop” lid features an integrated keypad (keypad models only) to
provide programmable pushbutton control at every interface location. Wiring for the
QM-FTCC is extremely simple requiring just a single CresCAT™-QM cable (sold
separately).
Computer Interface
Inputs are provided for one RGB/component signal with corresponding stereo audio
to accept a connection from a computer or other high-resolution source. For
complete connectivity, the QM-FTCC also includes an RJ-45 LAN pass through
connector and AC power receptacle.
Integrated Keypad (optional)
The QM-FTCC can be ordered with or without a keypad. This customizable keypad
provides 10 to 20 programmable pushbuttons for control of AV, lighting and other
functions. All button caps are engravable and include LED feedback indicators. Two
LED bar graphs are also provided to display level settings and other parameters. To
prevent accidental button presses, the keypad is automatically disabled whenever the
lid is not fully opened.
Gated Mic Preamp
Two gated microphone inputs are included via terminal block connectors located
below the table surface. Both dynamic and condenser type microphones are
supported with software switchable 48V phantom power available at both
microphone inputs. Balanced or unbalanced line level sources such as wireless
microphones can also be accommodated. Input gain and gating controls for each
microphone/line input are fully adjustable at setup and can also be controlled in real
time from a keypad or touchpanel.
QuickMedia™ Transport
Using Crestron’s revolutionary QuickMedia (QM) transport, all input signals are
transmitted from the QM-FTCC to any QuickMedia Receiver or Distribution Center
over a single inexpensive CAT5e type cable. Computer resolutions up to 1920 x
1200 pixels at 60 Hz are supported over cable runs up to 450 feet (137 meters).
Audio signals are transmitted digitally with high performance 24-bit resolution.
QuickMedia dramatically simplifies system design and installation, affording a
higher level of performance at a lower overall cost.
NOTE: For QuickMedia wiring use CresCAT-QM, CresCAT-IM or quality
Cat5e/CAT6 cable. The maximum aggregate cable length and delay skew between
any QM transmitter (origination point) and QM receiver (endpoint) is 450 feet (137
meters) and 22 ns. A maximum of two QM midpoint devices may be inserted in a
given QM signal path (exceptions apply, refer to each respective product manual for
full details).
MediaManager System Integration
Whether using just one FlipTop box or several, complete system operation can be
made transparent to the end user with all signal routing occurring smoothly under the
command of the MediaManager control system. Built-in video sensing can be
utilized to trigger automatic input selection and power control. Complete
