FOX3 Matrix 80x • Setup Guide
General Setup
The FOX3 Matrix Switchers are configurable matrix switchers that distribute optical and audio signals. The FOX3 matrix is
primarily designed to support switching of FOX3 endpoints, FOX3 transmitters to FOX3 receivers. The matrix switcher routes any
input signal to any combination of outputs. The FOX3 matrix switcher can also route multiple input and output configurations
simultaneously (see figure 1 for a FOX3 Matrix 80x configuration).
WARNING:
The FOX3 matrix switcher fiber optic I/O boards output continuous invisible light, which may be harmful to the
eyes; use with caution. Do not look into the fiber optic cable connectors or into the fiber optic cables themselves. Plug the
attached dust caps into the optical transceivers when the fiber cable is unplugged.
AVERTISSEMENT :
Les cartes d’E/S fibre optique FOX3 matrix switcher émettent une lumière invisible continue, qui peut être
dangereuse pour les yeux ; à utiliser avec précaution. Ne pas fixer directement les connecteurs optiques ou les câbles fibre
optique. Branchez les protections contre la poussière dans l’ensemble émetteur/récepteur lorsque le câble fibre optique est
débranché.
NOTE:
FOX3 signals are not compatible with FOX and FOX II signals.
