Figure 1. Typical FOXBOX Tx/Rx HDMI Application

Transmitter

The FOXBOX Tx HDMI transmitter accepts HDMI video or DVI-D video (with an applicable

adapter), at resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 at 60 Hz. The video input can also include

embedded audio. The transmitter also loops the HDMI input through for a local monitor.

The transmitter can also accept an analog audio input on 3.5 mm mini jack. A front panel

DIP switch selects either the embedded audio or the separate analog audio for the unit to

transmit to the receiver.

The transmitter accepts a one-way (transmitter-to-receiver) RS-232 serial communication

(for applications such as projector control) serial signal input. The transmitter can receive an

optional return (receiver-to-transmitter) stream of serial RS-232 communications, such as

projector responses.

The transmitter converts the HDMI video, the selected audio, and the RS-232 serial

communication into a proprietary data stream and outputs it as an optical signal on a single

LC connector to a compatible fiber optic receiver. It also can receive a proprietary optical

signal from the receiver consisting of the RS-232 return from a controlled device.

FOXBOX Tx/Rx HDMI • Introduction 3

Receiver

The FOXBOX Rx HDMI receiver accepts a proprietary optical signal on a single LC

connector from a compatible fiber optic transmitter or daisy-chained receiver.

The receiver outputs a single link of HDMI video, digital audio (embedded in the HDMI

output), analog audio, and RS-232 serial commands.

If the receiver is appropriately configured and has a second fiber optic cable installed, it also

can either:

• Receive an RS-232 return from a controlled device and send it to the transmitter via a

proprietary optical signal.

• Output a daisy-chained signal to another receiver.

If either RS-232 return or daisy-chained communications are implemented, the receiver

outputs a proprietary signal on the second fiber optic cable carrying the signal.

For video resolutions up to 1600 x 1200, 1080p, or 1920 x 1200, the video output of the

receiver is a perfect, pixel-for-pixel recreation of the video signal input to the transmitter.

With the appropriate adapter, the single link of HDMI video output by FOXBOX Rx HDMI can

be converted to DVI-D video.

The receiver has built-in alternating pixels, color bars, and grayscale test patterns to assist in

setting up the display equipment.

Both Units

The transmitter and receiver have many controls, including image and audio adjustments,

that are available under RS-232 Simple Instruction Set (SIS™) control. Both units have

image, audio, fiber light status, and lost-light alarm indicators.

System Compatibility

The FOXBOX Tx HDMI transmitter operates in either of two modes, selected under

RS-232 control, for compatibility with other, non-HDMI, units:

• Plus — Support resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz. The fiber optic output of

the transmitter can be received only by one of four receivers: a FOXBOX HDMI Rx, a

FOXBOX DVI Plus Rx, a PowerCage HDMI Rx, or a PowerCage FOX DVI Plus Rx.

• Non-Plus — Supports resolutions up to 1600 x 1200 @ 60 Hz. The fiber optic

output of the transmitter can be received by any FOXBOX, PowerCage FOX, and

FOX 500 VGA and DVI unit, including the Plus and non-Plus units.

The FOXBOX Rx HDMI receiver operates interchangeably with all FOXBOX, PowerCage

FOX, and FOX 500 VGA and DVI units, including Plus and non-Plus units.

NOTES:

• Although the receiver can operate with non-HDMI transmitters, the video output is

not HDCP-compliant.

• The transmitter and receiver are not compatible with the FOX AV,

PowerCage FOX AV, FOX 3G HD-SDI, PowerCage FOX 3G HD-SDI, and

FOX 3G DVC models.

FOXBOX Tx/Rx HDMI • Introduction 4

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.

•

Compatibility with FOX 500 DA6 distribution amplifier and FOX Matrix Switchers

•

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 Contr

ol 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 firmwar

e — 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 pr

esets — 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.

NOTES:

• Ensure that you use the proper ﬁber cable for your transmitter/receiver pair.

Typically, singlemode ﬁber has a yellow jacket and multimode cable has an

orange or aqua jacket.

•

Only one ﬁber optic cable, transmitter

-Tx-to-receiver-Rx, is required for video,

audio, and serial command transmission. But, if you connect only one ﬁber

optic cable, or if your receiver is conﬁgured to daisy-chain the optical signal:

•

The HDMI signal output by the r

eceiver is not HDCP-compliant.

Making Connections

HDMI connector

HDMI signals run at a very high frequency and are especially prone to errors caused by bad

video connections, too many adapters, or excessive cable length. To avoid the loss of an

image or jitter, follow these guidelines:

• Do not exceed 16.4 feet (5 meters) on the input or buffered loop-through of the

FOXBOX HDMI transmitter or the output of the FOXBOX HDMI receiver.

• Use only the cable designed for HDMI signals that is supplied by Extron.

• Limit or avoid the use of adapters.

• Use only cables specifically intended for HDMI or DVI signals. Use of non-HDMI or

non-DVI cables or modified cables can result in a missing video output.

To securely fasten an HDMI cable to a device:

1. Plug the HDMI cable into the panel connection (see figure 8,

1

).

). The screw does not have to be removed.

3. Place the LockIt lacing bracket on the screw and against the HDMI connector, then

tighten the screw to secure the bracket (

).

ATTENTION:

• Do not overtighten the HDMI connector mounting screw. The shield to which it

fastens is very thin and can easily be stripped.

•

Ne serr

Loosely place the included tie wrap ar

ound the HDMI connector and the LockIt lacing

bracket as shown (
