NOTE: Steps 2 through 4 are for an 8-input, 1-output switcher in a system that is not HDMI compliant.
For HDCP compliance, the unit can be configured as 7-input, 1-output only. See the NOTE after step 4.
Step 1 — Mounting
Turn off or disconnect all equipment power sources and mount the FOX switcher as required.
Step 2 — Optical Inputs
Connect up to eight fiber optic transmitters to rear panel Input LC connectors of the FOX switcher
(the right-hand connector on each transceiver block).
Step 3 — Loop Optical Outputs
Connect up to seven fiber cables between the Loop LC connectors of the FOX switcher (the left-hand connector
on transceiver blocks 1 through 7) and compatible receivers for unswitched outputs (each input loops through to
its associated output only).
