Step 4 — Throughput Connections
NOTE:
figure 5 for fiber cable connections. Connect the transmitter to a receiver in one of
three ways:
•
One way (transmitter to receiver) only, perform step 4a.
•
Two way (transmitter to receiver and return), perform steps 4a and 4b.
•
Output B is available to transmit 4K @ 60 Hz uncompressed signal when the FOX3
Uncompressed Video LinkLicense is purchased.
a.
Connect the fiber between the transmitter A Out port and the receiver A In port (
1
).
NOTE:
Ensure that the transmitter and connected receiver are in the same transmission
mode, singlemode (SM) or multimode (MM) and use the correct SM or MM fiber cable to
connect the devices.
b.
To return serial data from the receiver (such as responses from a controlled device), IR data,
or returned audio to the transmitter, connect a cable between the receiver A Out port and the
transmitter A In port (
2
).
c.
To transmit an uncompressed 4K @ 60 Hz signal, using the Uncompressed Video LinkLicense,
repeat step 4a on the SFP B port on the transmitter and receiver

SFP Link LEDs
—
•
Transmit Optical OUT LED
lights solid green when powered and lights off when there is no power on the endpoint.
•
Receive Optical IN LED
lights solid green when light is present and lights off when there is no power or light present.
Step 5 — Power Connection
Connect the IEC power connector to the power inlet (see
,
on page 1). The power LED lights (
) when the unit is
receiving power.
Operation
After the receiver, transmitter, and their connected devices are powered up, the system is fully operational. If any problems occur,
verify that the cables are routed and connected properly and the display device has a compatible resolution and refresh rate. If
problems persist, call the Extron S3 Sales & Technical Support Hotline (see the
on page 4).

USB LEDs
—
•
Transmitter
— The HID Host LED and 2.0 Host LED light when the unit is connected to the host device.
•
Receiver
—
•
USB HID Host LED
— When the transmitter and receiver are connected through the SFP port and a host device is
connected to the transmitter, the LED remains lit to indicate an active connected device.
•
USB HID 1 and 2 LEDs
—When an active USB peripheral device is connected to the HUB ports on the receiver,
the LED remains lit to indicate an active connected device.
