Specifications — FOXBOX 4G DVI/VGA Series
NThe FOXBOX 4G DVI and FOXBOX 4G VGA consist of a transmitter
(FOXBOX 4G DVI/VGA Tx) and a receiver (FOXBOX 4G DVI/VGA Rx) with one or two fiber optic cables linking the two units. They are available in singlemode or multimode versions.
NFor the VGA models, the analog RGB input signal is digitized pixel for pixel in the transmitter, sent digitally through the fiber cable, and converted back to analog RGB in the receiver.
NThe analog audio signal(s) is (are) digitized in the transmitter, sent through the fiber cable, and converted back to analog audio in the receiver.
NThese transceivers are class 1 laser products. They meet the safety regulations of
Optical fiber interconnection between transmitter and receiver
Number/type �������������������������������� 1 or 2 fiber optic
NOnly one fiber is required to transmit video, audio, and unidirectional data. A second fiber is required to transmit return data for bidirectional control/communication.
