•
Audio breakaway
— Offers the capability to separate an embedded audio signal from
its corresponding video signal within the matrix switcher, allowing two-channel PCM
audio and the video signal from one source to be routed to different destinations.
•
64x64 Dante I/O audio networking with Dante Domain Manager and AES67
support
— Two Dante ports provide scalability supporting up to 32 stereo inputs and
32 stereo outputs. An audio input received from a Dante network can be routed to
any audio output, including analog audio return channel. An audio output delivered
to the Dante network can originate from any 2-channel audio input. Dante Domain
Manager offers security and logical segmenting on the network. AES67 support ensures
compatibility with a wide variety of network audio devices using standard protocols.
•
Compatible with Dante Controller software
— Configuration software for setting up
and managing Dante-enabled audio products on an audio network.
•
Secure partitioning segregates sources and destinations in a secure
environment
— Secure partitioning enables the FOX3 Matrix to be partitioned into
smaller sub-switchers for segregating sources and destinations. Sources can only be
routed to destinations within the same partition.
•
Priority switching prevents unauthorized access to sensitive data in a secure
environment
— Each input and output is assigned a security level. An output can only
be tied to an input at the same security level or lower, preventing unauthorized access
to sensitive data in a secure environment.
•
Modular, field-upgradeable and hot-swappable design
— The FOX3 Matrix
provides substantial flexibility, expandability, and affordability by allowing users to select
the configuration required for their systems. Additional input and output boards may be
added at any time for easy and quick upgradeability, expansion, or new technologies.
Hot-swappable components allow the user to replace an I/O board or power supply
at any time without the need to power down the switcher. This is especially useful for
mission-critical applications that require continuous operation.
•
RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet control port
— System level device control
to all remote locations via the matrix switcher Ethernet port, providing comprehensive
control of endpoints and attached devices without needing additional cabling.
•
Multimode and Singlemode I/O boards available
— The FOX3 Matrix is
configurable with a mix of multimode and singlemode versions of the FOX3 Matrix I/O
boards, so that both short and long haul transmission can be supported.
•
Dual redundant and hot-swappable power supplies
— One primary and one
back-up power supply provide added reliability for critical applications.
•
Advanced computer-aided diagnostics
— Provide 24-hour self-diagnostics of
input/output boards, primary and redundant power supply voltages, fiber links, and
overall functional status of the matrix. Using the Ethernet or RS-232 communications
port, status monitoring is possible for off-site or unmanned locations, such as
government, military, medical, or any other sensitive, 24/7 environments.
•
Two AC power inputs
— For added power reliability, some 24-hour environments
require two separate AC power sources, one as the primary source and the second for
redundancy. The FOX3 Matrix provides two AC power inputs for continuous connection
to both power sources.
•
Industry standard LC connectors provide reliable physical connectivity and
precise fiber core alignment
•
Ethernet monitoring and control
— The matrix switcher can be proactively
monitored and managed over a LAN, WAN, or the Internet, using standard TCP/IP
protocols. Ethernet control provides for remote selection of input and output ties,
system set-up and configuration, and advanced system diagnostics.
