Introduction W The FOX HD-SDI units output continuous, invisible light, which may be harmful and dangerous to the eyes; use with caution. About the FOX HD-SDI • Do not look into the rear panel fiber optic The Extron FOX HD-SDI product family consists of two models (MM and SM) of high performance digital (HD-SDI, SDI, or 3G-SDI) video fiber optic transceivers. The transmitted signal can include any audio or unidirectional serial data that is embedded in the input video.
Introduction, cont’d A bidirectional transceiver can also simultaneously receive a proprietary signal from another transceiver (in any configuration) on its Optical Rx port, convert the proprietary signal to back to the original format digital video, and output the video on its own two Buffered Outputs BNC connectors.

Installation and Operation Mounting the Unit C Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. Mounting instructions For optional rack mounting, mount the transceiver on any of the following rack shelves: The 1" high, quarter-rack width transceiver can be placed on a tabletop, mounted on a rack shelf, mounted under a desk or tabletop, or mounted on a projector bracket.
Installation and Operation, cont’d 1U Universal Rack Shelf 1/2 Rack Width Front False Faceplate 1/4 Rack Width Front False Faceplate Both front false faceplates use 2 screws. Use 2 mounting holes on opposite corners. (2) 4-40 x 3/16" Screws Figure 2-2 — Mounting the transceiver on a standard rack shelf 5. Secure the shelf to the rack using the supplied machine screws. Figure 2-3 — Under-desk mounting 6.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Through-desk mounting The transceiver can be mounted through a desk or other furniture using an optional Extron MBD 129 through-desk mounting kit, part #70-077-02. Mount the transceiver through a desk or table as follows (figure 2-4): c. Tighten the screws. d. Replace the unit inside the surface (step 4).
Installation and Operation, cont’d 3. Use the two included tie wraps to strap the power supply to one of the brackets. N The PMK 300 has a hole in the bottom plate that allows the projector pole to be inserted through the center of the plate (figure 2-6), rather than outside of the plate (figure 2-5). To install the PMK 300 in this configuration, slide the bracket up from the bottom of the pole before the projector is installed on the pole.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Assemble the U-bolt and the following parts in the following order (figure 2-8): 6. Connections and Settings All connectors are on the rear panel (figure 2-9).

Pass the legs of the U-bolt through the slotted holes on the mount plate flange.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Rx — If the FOX HD-SDI is configured as a bidirectional transceiver or as a receiver, for one-way communications from the transmitting unit, connect a fiber optic cable to the Optical Rx connector. If the FOX HD-SDI is configured as a bidirectional transceiver, connect the free end of this fiber optic cable to the Optical Tx connector on the transmitting FOX HD-SDI. Power supply wiring Figure 2-10 shows how to wire the power connector.
Installation and Operation, cont’d Operation System operation Front panel indicators All indicators are on the front panel (figure 2-13). 270 Mbps RATE 1.485 Gbps 2.97 Gbps After the transmitting and receiving units and all of their connected devices are powered up, the system is fully operational. If any problems are encountered, ensure all traditional and fiber cables are routed and connected properly.
