Cresnet® Control Cable

The Cresnet bus is the communications backbone for Crestron touchpanels, keypads, expansion

modules, tuners, and more. Cresnet is a simple, yet flexible 4-wire network that provides bi-

directional communication and 24V power for Cresnet devices. With cable lengths up to 5000

feet, the Cresnet wiring topology allows almost limitless wiring configurations.

Crestron offers Cresnet control cable in three variations. Within a single jacket, Cresnet and

Cresnet-P furnish (1) pair 18 AWG for 24VDC and GND, and (1) twisted pair 22 AWG with shield

for control data. Cresnet-DM is designed specifically for use with Crestron CLW-series wall box

dimmers and switches, providing (1) twisted pair 22 AWG with shield for data only (no power).

CresCATTM QM QuickMediaTM Cable

The QuickMedia transport is Crestron’s revolutionary technology designed to provide a cost-

effective, high-performance signal routing solution for distributing high-resolution computer, video,

and audio signals utilizing a single CAT5 cable.

CresCAT-QM cable provides an easy, low-cost single cable solution to simplify the wiring of

QuickMedia-based systems. CresCAT-QM contains one low-skew CAT5e cable and one Cresnet

control cable in a single siamese jacket. Wiring for QuickMedia receivers, wall plates, and FlipTop

boxes requires installation of just one CresCAT-QM to each location.

AVAILABLE MODELS
