Features

Ultra high performance — Offers pixel-for-pixel HDMI or DVI-D (with an adapter) video
transmission, up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz (in Plus mode) or 1600 x 1200 at 60 Hz (in non-
plus mode).
Video input — The transmitter accepts a single link of HDMI or DVI-D video.
Loop-through on transmitter — The transmitter has an HDMI loop-through on a HDMI
connector that allows connection of a local monitor.
EDID emulation mode (Display Data Channel [DDC]) — The FOXBOX Tx HDMI
transmitter provides a selector switch for specifying the rate of the incoming digital video
signal. EDID emulation mode allows proper operation when no local monitor is present.
Video output — The receiver outputs a single link of HDMI video.
Extron fiber optic product compatibility — Enables ultra-long distance HDMI-to-analog
RGB and analog RGB-to-HDMI conversion without the need for extra signal conversion
devices.

Analog audio input
— The transmitters accept an unbalanced stereo or mono audio input
on a 3.5 mm mini jack.
Analog audio input gain/attenuation — The input audio level of the analog audio can
be adjusted within a range of -18 dB (attenuation) to +10 dB (gain) via the RS-232 link.
Analog audio output — The receiver outputs balanced or unbalanced stereo audio on a
5-pole captive screw connector and digital audio embedded in the HDMI output.
Links monitoring — The panels of the transmitter and receiver have indicators for
monitoring image and audio transmission and both fiber optic links.
Loss-of-light alarms — The panels of the transmitters and receivers have discrete outputs
that indicate if either of the fiber optic links have suffered a loss of the light signal.
FOX Extenders Control Program — For RS-232 remote control from a PC, the Extron FOX
Extenders Control Program, which runs under Microsoft® Windows®, provides a graphical
interface and drag-and-drop/point-and-click operation.
Simple Instruction Set — The transmitter and receiver use the SIS for easy remote control
operation.
Analog audio level — The analog audio output is at the consumer level (-10 dBV).
Upgradable firmware — The firmware that controls the operation of each unit can be
upgraded in the field via an RS-232 link without taking the unit out of service. Firmware
upgrades are available for download on the Extron Web site,

www.extron.com

, and they

can be installed using the FOX Extenders Control Program.
Memory presets — 30 memory presets are a time-saving feature that lets you store input
size and position settings relative to a specific input resolution. You can then recall those
settings, when needed, using the SIS or the control software.
Rack mounting — Both FOXBOX HDMI units are rack mountable in any conventional
19-inch wide rack, using an Extron 9.5-inch or 6-inch deep rack shelf.
Power — The 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz external power supply for each unit provides
worldwide power compatibility.
