Video connectors

 —

 

Three BNC connectors and one 4-pin mini DIN S-video 

connector are available for video input and output. 
The PowerCage FOX Tx/Rx AV inputs and outputs a single low resolution video signal 
(composite, S-video and low resolution component video). It is not compatible with 
RGB or HDTV 480p, 720p, or 1080i component video signals.
The transmitter converts incoming signals to a proprietary format and passes them 
along the fiber optic cable to the PowerCage FOX Rx AV. The receiver converts the 
signal to a format that matches the display requirements. SIS commands are used to 
configure the receiver to convert between signal formats.

Component video

To input or output a low resolution component video signal, connect 
a device to the Y/VID, B-Y/C, and R-Y receptacles on the back panel of 
the unit, as shown at right.

S-video

There are two alternative methods to input or output an S-video signal:

 

z

Connect a device to the female Y/VID and B-Y/C BNC receptacles 
on the back panel.

 

z

Connect a device to the female 4-pin mini DIN S-VID receptacle on 
the back panel.

NOTE:

  In addition to the selected output type, using BNC 

connectors, a transcoded S-video signal is always 
output from the receiver S-VID socket.

Composite video

To input or output a composite video signal, connect a device to the 
female Y/VID BNC receptacle on the back panel of the unit, as shown 
at right.

Signal priorities

In the table below the colored cells indicate which signal has the highest priority when 
both the BNC connectors and the 4-pin mini DIN provide simultaneous video input.
