SmartMedia: SSM-3100 Description The SmartMedia Distributed Audio Solution (SSM-3100) is a system that delivers distributed audio/video switching, a single zone of TrueCommand™, and integrated control capability, all within a 2U fanless chassis. The SSM-3100 is capable of distributing music in up to eight zones with the flexibility to play the same content throughout the home, or unique content in each room simultaneously and independently. As part of the line of Savant SmartSystems control solutions, the SSM-3100 delivers 6 x 8 audio distribution, 6 x 1 video, TrueCommand™ on-screen display (OSD), and integrated control. Six video inputs are available with the SSM-3100: (4) HDMI™ (1) Component YPBPR (1) VGA, Analog RGBHV SSM-3100 has sixteen RCA jack connections for passing analog line-level audio signals to an external multi-channel amplifier, for a distributed audio solution. See also, the technical specifications for AMP-2000/ AMP-2000I. SSM-3100 supports audio time-delay on stereo outputs 1-4 to compensate for lip sync errors. Audio can be delayed from 0 to 170 milliseconds (ms) in 1ms increments for proper lip sync compensation. Feature Summary • Control and automation formats—Serial, IR, Relay, and General Purpose IO (GPIO) • Multi-room audio distribution— any six audio sources to eight rooms or zones • Video switching 6 x 1—HDCP compliant • Video Processing and Scaling Enables Savant TrueCommand™ technology • 6 x 1 fast video switching—HDMI compatible and HDCP compliant • Professional video processing, scaling and deinterlacing • Integrated controller with twelve control ports including stereo preamp processing including independent control of volume, balance, bass, treble, and mute • Complete control of all rooms, music and video when paired with Savant interfaces • Playback of up to four independent iTunes® sources (external host required, not included) SSM-3100 also provides broadcast-quality video processing, scaling and calibration features. • iTunes® Digital Media Server provided by the External Host (sold separately) The SSM-3100 enables Savant TrueCommand™ technology—an on-TV menu system used for navigating, browsing, and selecting diverse control subsystems and multimedia presented on HD displays. • Use RacePoint Blueprint™ design tool to configure and customize SSM-3100 Front View of SSM-3100 (above) Rear View of SSM-3100 (above)

System Design Considerations On an SSM-3100, the HDMI input port that is the source for the video out, can send and share its audio with the audio matrix switch internally. The other three HDMI input ports are standing idle and ready for the HDMI OUTio In the top half of the next figure the video multiplexer (MUX) processes the inputs and outputs plus mixing in the host OSD (True Command™). The bottom half of the figure shows the audio matrix switcher with the inputs and outputs. The active video selected to go out can also be added to the audio matrix switcher. The Audio line delay is also...

SmartMedia: SSM-3100 Specifications for Installing Device in Rack The SSM-3100 can be mounted in a 2U rack style enclosure. The next figure shows a partial view of a typical rack used to house an SSM-3100 and other devices. The SSM-3100 is compatible with all standard 19-inch National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) rack-mounts. SSM-3100 with 2U mounting brackets (above) Installation Considerations Savant recommends using cable supports on the rear of the chassis for audio/video control cabling. This chassis needs adequate space on each side for air intake and exhaust—a minimum...
