speciFicAtiOns

NOTE: The FOX 500 DVI consists of a transmitter (FOX 500 DVI TX) and a receiver (FOX 500 DVI RX) with one or two fiber
optic cables linking the two units. They are available in singlemode or multimode versions. FOX 500 DVI systems are not
HDCP compliant and do not support HDCP handshaking.

The analog audio signal(s) is (are) digitized in the transmitter, sent through the fiber cable, and converted back to analog
audio in the receiver.

These transceivers are class 1 laser products. They meet the safety regulations of IEC-60825, FDA 21, CFR 1040.10, and
FDA 21 CFR 1040.11.

NOTE:

Operating distance is approximate. These are typical distances. The maximum distance may be greater than these

typical numbers depending on factors such as fiber type, fiber bandwidth, connector splicing, losses, modal or chromatic
dispersion, environmental factors, and kinks.

The FOX 500 DVI Series can be used to distribute HDMI signals if you use a DVI-to-HDMI adapter. However, when

using HDMI signals, the FOX units do not transmit audio and CEC signals.

FOX 500 DVI

F i b e r O p t i c e x t e n d e r s

At the FOX 500 DVI transmitter, both transmitter and receiver can be controlled and configured
through RS-232. With a second fiber link installed, functions for both units can be controlled at
either location. Since the units are typically situated far apart, this capability adds considerable
versatility, enabling adjustment and calibration of audio at the receiver. It also allows for
verification of fiber link status between the units as well as the presence of DVI-D and audio
input signals at the transmitter.

DVI-to-Analog RGB and Analog RGB-to-DVI Conversion
The FOX 500 DVI transmitter and receiver are available separately. Either device can be paired
with the standard FOX 500 transmitter or receiver to provide ultra-long distance transmission
and conversion of DVI-D signals to analog RGB and vice versa. With the second fiber link in place,
the FOX 500 DVI receiver can be used to adjust and calibrate incoming analog RGB signals to
the FOX 500 transmitter, or automatically set image adjustments through Auto-Image

.

The FOX 500 DVI receiver is also compatible with the FOX 500 DA6 Six Output Fiber Optic
Transmitter, which enables transmission of analog RGB over up to six fiber links for distribution
to multiple DVI-equipped displays.
