Fiber optic connectors and LEDs —
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 Ensure that you use the proper fiber cable for your I/O
board. Typically, singlemode fiber has a yellow jacket and
multimode cable has an orange jacket.
N The Fiber Matrix 6400 uses one connector on the block as
an input and the second connector on the same block as a
separate output.
Ä
Input connector —
Connect a fiber optic
cable between each Input
LC connector and a
FOX 500 Tx or any other
compatible Extron FOX 500
device.
N Or, for the FOX 500 serial
return, (receiver-to-transmitter)
function, connect the free end
to the Optical 2 connector on a
FOX 500 Rx receiver.
Input LED — When lit,
the link is active (light is
received).
Å
Output connector —
Connect a fiber optic cable
between each output LC
connector and a FOX 500 Rx or any
other compatible Extron FOX 500
device.
N Or, for the FOX 500 serial
return, (receiver-to-transmitter)
function, connect the free end
to the Optical 2 connector
on a FOX 500 Tx
transmitter.
Output LED — This LED is
always lit.
b
BNC connectors —
Ç
Multi-rate SDI Input connectors — Connect HD-SDI, SDI,
or 3G-SDI video inputs to these BNC connectors.
É
Multi-rate SDI Output connectors — Connect digital
displays to these BNC connectors.
c
Ethernet port — If desired, connect a network WAN or LAN
hub, a control system, or a computer to the Ethernet RJ-45 port.
Network connection
— Wire as a patch (straight) cable.
Computer or control system connection — Wire the interface
cable as a crossover cable.
N The factory default IP address is 192.168.254.254.
d
Remote port — If desired, connect a control system or computer
to the rear panel Remote RS-232/RS-422 port.

Power connector — Plug the switcher into two grounded AC
sources.
N For reliability, connect the Redundant power cord to either
an uninterruptible power source or to a power source that
is completely independent from the primary power source.
f
Primary and Redundant power supply indicator LEDs —
Green — Indicates that the associated power supply is
operating within normal tolerances.
Red — Indicates that the associated power supply is operating
outside the normal tolerances or has failed. See chapter 5,
“Maintenance and Modifications“ to replace the power supply.
