Fiber Cable Transmission Modes
The FOX3 Matrix Switchers are assembled from individual input/output (I/O) boards. The
switcher can include multiple I/O boards, depending on the matrix model. Each I/O board
supports up to 8 inputs and 8 outputs. The two types of I/O boards are:
•
Singlemode
— Very long distance, up to 20 km (12.43 miles)
•
Multimode
— Long distance, up to 500 m (1640 feet)
Increase or decrease the size of the FOX3 Matrix Switchers from an 8-input by 8-output
matrix by adding or removing I/O boards to up to a 320-input by 320-output matrix for the
FOX3 Matrix 320x.
NOTE:
Multimode and singlemode fiber optic I/O boards can be mixed in a FOX3 matrix
switcher, but be sure to connect the proper transmission mode fiber cables to each
board.

•
Compatible with all Extron FOX3 Series transmitters and receivers
— Supports
FOX3 extenders for an enterprise-wide fiber optic distribution system.
•
Supports mathematically lossless 4K video up to 4096x2160 at 60 Hz with 4:4:4
chroma sampling over one fiber
•
Supports uncompressed 4K video up to 4096x2160 at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma
sampling over two fibers
— Provides the highest quality video distribution system.
•
Audio embedding
— Any selected two-channel PCM audio signal can be embedded
into any selected output signal, including the analog return audio signal.
•
Audio de-embedding
— Any two-channel PCM audio signal from a transmitter or
analog return audio from a receiver can be extracted and independently routed.
•
Analog audio insertion
— Four local stereo audio inputs can be routed to any audio
output, including audio to any connected FOX3 receiver, analog return audio to a FOX3
transmitter, the DMP expansion port, any analog output port, or a Dante audio network.
•
Analog audio extraction
— Four local stereo audio outputs provide audio from any
audio input, including any connected FOX3 transmitter, DMP expansion port, analog
audio input port, or Dante audio network.
•
Digital audio expansion port provides a connection to an Extron DMP 128 Plus
processor for audio system scalability
— The DMP expansion port allows the
FOX3 Matrix and any non-AT DMP model to be linked together via a single shielded
CAT 6 cable. This creates a 16-channel bi-directional 24-bit/48 kHz high-resolution
digital audio expansion bus between the two units, allowing expanded input and output
signal management and routing capabilities.
•
Dante
®
audio network interface, DMP expansion port, and analog audio inputs
and outputs
— The FOX3 Matrix features unique audio capabilities with leading-edge
audio matrix switching between any input and any output in the FOX3 systems.
