Figure 2-4 — FOX DA’s connectors
W This unit outputs continuous invisible light, which
may be harmful and dangerous to the eyes; use with
caution. For additional safety, plug the attached
dust caps into the optical transceivers when the
fiber optic cable is unplugged.
N Singlemode and multimode devices are not
interchangeable. Ensure that you connect transmitting
and receiving devices that are compatible with the
FOX DA.
N Ensure that you use the proper fiber cable for your
system. Typically, singlemode fiber has a yellow jacket and
multimode cable has an orange jacket.
N In this manual, the term "sending connector" refers to an
LC connector on a transmitter or other device that outputs
a fiber optic signal. The term "receiving connector" refers
to an LC connector that receives an optical signal.
a
AC power connector — Plug a standard IEC power cord into
this connector to connect the FOX DA to a 100 VAC to 240 VAC,
50 or 60 Hz power source.
b
Input connector and LED —
N The input (right-hand) LC connector for
transciever block 1 is the only functional
input connector. The right-hand
LC connectors are not functional for
transceiver blocks 2 through 8.
Optical transceiver block 1 Input connector —
For one-way video, audio, and serial
communications from the transmitter to the
FOX DA (for distribution to the receiver(s),
connect a fiber optic cable to the optical
transceiver block 1's Input (right-hand) LC
connector.
Connect the far end of this fiber optic cable to
the sending connector on the transmitter or
other compatible Extron device .
Optical transceiver block 1 Input LED —
When lit, the link is active (light is received
from the transmitter).
N The input (right-hand) LED indicates
the light link for transceiver block 1. The
right-hand LEDs for transceiver blocks 2
through 8 may light, but do not indicate
an input to that connector.
c
Output connectors and LEDs —
Output connectors — For one-way video,
audio, and serial communications from the
FOX DA to the receivers, connect up to eight
fiber optic cables to the Output (left-hand) LC
connectors on transceiver blocks 1 through 8.
Connect the far ends of these fiber optic
cables to the receiving connectors on the receivers or other
compatible Extron devices .
Output LEDs — These LEDs are always lit, whether the
output is active (unmuted) or not.
