About the Crestron DM-NVX-DIR2

The DM-NVX-DIR2 automatically discovers DM NVX endpoints and supports up to 100 devices, each set as an encoder or a decoder, grouped into as many as 20 domains. Interdomain routing, multicast address control and credential management of DM NVX endpoints are included, and it adds custom naming and search tools. Virtual matrices and physical endpoints can be fully controlled through programming.

Inside is a Dell OptiPlex 7080 Micro with an Intel Core i5-10500T processor, 8 GB of DDR4 memory, a 256 GB SSD and AlmaLinux OS 9.5. A single RJ-45 port provides 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet, and the system is managed through a web-based graphical interface. HDMI, DisplayPort and USB ports can take a monitor, keyboard and mouse for optional command line configuration.

Power comes from the included adapter (100 to 240 V AC in, 130 W at 19.5 VDC out), with a backlit power button for on, off and reset. The metal and plastic enclosure is 36 mm high, 183 mm wide and 178 mm deep, and it can stand freely or use an optional VESA mount and Kensington lock. Operating temperature is 10 to 35 °C.

It is based on a Dell OptiPlex 7080 Micro desktop computer with an Intel Core i5-10500T processor at 2.30 GHz, 8 GB of DDR4 memory, a 256 GB SSD and Intel UHD Graphics 630. It runs AlmaLinux OS 9.5 and uses an Intel I219-LM 100/1000 Mbps Ethernet port.

How is the DM-NVX-DIR2 set up?

Configuration, routing and management are done through its web-based graphical user interface. For optional command line configuration, a monitor can be connected by HDMI or DisplayPort and a keyboard or mouse by USB. Several front connectors, including the audio jacks and USB-C port, and the wireless antenna slots are not used.

How is the DM-NVX-DIR2 powered and mounted?

It runs from the included power adapter, which takes 100 to 240 V AC and supplies 130 W at 19.5 VDC. The metal and plastic enclosure is 36 mm high, 183 mm wide and 178 mm deep, and can be freestanding or fixed with an optional VESA mount. A Kensington lock slot is provided.

How much is the Crestron DM-NVX-DIR2?

Crestron asks its dealers to give the price of the DM-NVX-DIR2 directly rather than publish it online. Add it to your quote list and we will send you a written quote, with delivery, and installation and programming if you need them.

Can 1Install supply, install and programme the DM-NVX-DIR2?

Yes. 1Install is an authorised Crestron Elite Partner with offices in Skerries, Co. Dublin and Cork. We can supply the DM-NVX-DIR2 on its own, or install, set up and programme it as part of your system. Installation visits are €440 for 4 hours or €880 for a full day, plus VAT and travel.

Does the DM-NVX-DIR2 come with a warranty?

Yes. Everything we supply is new, genuine Crestron with Crestron's standard warranty. If the DM-NVX-DIR2 develops a fault, contact us and we will handle the claim with Crestron. If we installed it, our workmanship is guaranteed for the lifetime of the system.

Is the DM-NVX-DIR2 in stock?

We order Crestron for each quote, so availability depends on Crestron's stock at the time. We check it before we quote and put the expected delivery date on your quote, so you know where you stand before you pay.

Can I buy the DM-NVX-DIR2 without installation?

Yes. We supply Crestron to end users, with or without installation. Like most Crestron devices of this type, it needs setting up or programming before it works in a system, and we can quote for that too.
