About the FOX 4G Matrix 14400

The FOX 4G Matrix 14400 (figure 1-1) is a configurable matrix switcher that distributes optical signals. Fiber optic I/O boards route signals that are compatible with all Extron FOX 500, FOXBOX, FOX 2G, and FOX HD-SDI fiber optic product lines. The matrix switcher routes any input signal to any combination of outputs. The matrix switcher can route multiple input/ output configurations simultaneously.

The Extron proprietary fiber optic signal, generated by Extron FOX fiber optic transmitters, can include video, stereo audio, and transmitter-to-receiver RS-232 serial communications. The video component of the signal can be RGB video, Digital Visual Interface (DVI) video, SDI/HD-SDI video, or low resolution video, depending on the transmitter and receiver.

Figure 1-1 — Typical FOX 4G Matrix 14400 application

NCompatible optical signals are digital signals from

270 Mbs through 4.25 Gbps that are sent and received via fiber optic small form factor pluggable (SFP) modules. The FOX 4G Matrix 14400 supports all compatible optical signals, whether transmitted or received by an Extron fiber optic system component or not.

NThe FOX transmitter-to-receiver communications, including the serial link, occupy one matrix switcher input and output.

This matrix switcher can also support the FOX return (receiver-to-transmitter) serial communications, but returning this signal stream to the transmitter occupies a separate matrix switcher input and output.

The matrix switcher can be remotely controlled via its Ethernet LAN port or either of two serial ports using either Extron’s Windows-based Matrix Switchers Control Program or the Simple Instruction Set (SIS).

The switcher has two internal, hot-swappable 100 VAC to

240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 400-watt power supplies that provide worldwide power compatibility and reliability.
