About the DMS Matrix Switchers

The DMS 1600, DMS 2000, DMS 3200, and DMS 3600 (see figure 1) are configurable matrix switchers that distribute DVI signals and DFX transmitter and receiver outputs and inputs. I/O boards route signals that are compatible with all Extron DVI video product lines and the fiber optic outputs and inputs of DFX transmitters and receivers. The matrix switcher routes any input signal to any combination of outputs. The matrix switcher can route multiple input/output configurations simultaneously.

Configurability

The DMS matrix switchers are assembled from I/O boards.

The DMS 1600 can include up to four I/O boards.

The DMS 2000 can include up to five I/O boards.

The DMS 3200 can include up to eight I/O boards.

The DMS 3600 can include up to nine I/O boards. There are six types of I/O boards available:

4x4 DVI inputs and outputs

4x4 fiber inputs and outputs

4

DVI inputs

4 fiber inputs

4

DVI outputs

4 fiber outputs

By adding or removing I/O boards within certain rules that are detailed in "Configurability rules," below, you can expand and contract each switcher model from a 4-input by 4-output matrix to up to:

DMS Matrix 1600 — A 16-input by 16-output matrix

DMS Matrix 2000 — A 20-input by 20-output matrix

DMS Matrix 3200 — A 32-input by 32-output matrix

DMS Matrix 3600 — A 36-input by 36-output matrix

operation, as detailed below:

The top slot (slot 1) MUST contain a 4x4 DVI or fiber optic input and output board.

The next slot (slot 2) can contain any of the six board types.

A 4x4 input and output board can be followed (in the slot directly underneath it) by any of the board types.

Figure 1. Typical DMS 3600 Application

Each matrix switcher model can be remotely controlled via its Ethernet LAN port, a serial port, or a USB port using either the Windows-based Extron Matrix Switchers Control Program or the SIS.

The switcher has two internal, hot-swappable 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz, 175-watt power supplies that provide worldwide power compatibility and reliability.

After you insert a 4-input board or a 4-output board, all active boards underneath it MUST be the same size (4 inputs or 4 outputs).

Fiber boards can follow DVI boards and DVI boards can follow fiber boards within the above size rules.

If you install a blank panel, all slots under it MUST contain blank panels (you cannot skip a slot).
