Device Description
Congratulations on your purchase of a FESTIVAL BOX – fiber transport platform for multiple signal formats. The
FESTIVAL BOX manual will quickly demonstrate its advantages and help to ease your day-to-day workload in a
professional audio-visual environment.
The FESTIVAL BOX is a point to point system,which simplifies cabling between two locations. It can be used with
multiple formats available on the market that can be connected through provided SFP (Small Form-factor Pluggable)
modules. The unit provides six or twelve duplex SFP slots. Each slot can be equipped with any flavour SFP interface
e.g. Multimode, Singlemode, MADI, Ethernet RJ45 etc. compliant to
MSA standard. FESTIVAL BOX multiplexes all
ports into one duplex (Petit) or two duplex (Grand) multimode fiber cables and demultiplexes them on the other end.
The FESTIVAL BOX is the perfect backbone transport system for a wide range of professional audio or data signals
including proprietary fiber protocols (i.e. Optocore), Ethernet-based Cat5 or fiber protocols (such as Dante, AVB or
ArtNET) or other proprietary or standard protocols. The huge selection of professional signals supported in a single
FESTIVAL BOX makes it a powerful solution for any application, which requires multi-cable run.. Furthermore hot-
swappable SFP-based design allows the greatest flexibility, because different medium (fiber, twisted-pair or copper)
can be connected in different situations.
FESTIVAL BOX features a built-in redundant power supply with an automatic switchover. The FESTIVAL BOX
Grand or two FESTIVAL BOX Petit keeps redundancy within redundant protocols..
FESTIVAL BOX is a 1RU device, capable of housing up to 6 (Petit) or 12 (Grand) SFP modules that are multiplexed
and/or de-multiplexed using a built-in Coarse Wave Division Multiplexing (CWDM) into one (Petit) or two (Grand)
duplex multimode fibers. CWDM technology, which is used to transport multiple signal on common fiber, is a passive
optical operation which guarantees no influence nor on the transported signals. Each protocol remains completely
independent with its full bandwidth. The overall trunk bandwidth can be 12G (Petit) or even 24G (Grand).
The front panel provides 24 LEDs indicating signal presence on each port as well as LEDs for status of the power
supplies.
FESTIVAL BOX requires no user configuration or operation – it is plug&play solution.
