Introduction
About this Manual
This manual contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the
Extron Fiber Matrix 6400 matrix switcher with user-replaceable singlemode fiber
optic I/O boards, multimode fiber optic I/O boards, and SDI/HD-SDI I/O boards.
N
The multimode and singlemode fiber optic I/O boards are physically and
functionally identical, with the exception of the effective range of transmission.
In this manual, any reference to fiber optic transmission applies to either
transmission mode unless otherwise specified.
About the Fiber Matrix 6400 Switcher
W
The Fiber Matrix 6400’s fiber optic I/O boards output continuous invisible
light, which may be harmful and dangerous to the eyes; use with caution.
•
Do not look into the rear panel fiber optic cable connectors or into the
fiber optic cables themselves.
•
Plug the attached dust caps into the optical transceivers when the fiber
optic cable is unplugged.
The Fiber Matrix 6400 (figure 1-1) is a configurable matrix switcher that distributes
optical and electrical signals. Fiber optic I/O boards route signals that are
compatible with all Extron FOX 500 fiber optic product lines. SDI/HD-SDI I/O
boards route serial digital interface (SDI) and high definition serial digital interface
(HD-SDI) signals. The matrix switcher routes any input signal to any combination
of outputs. An optical input can be tied to optical and/or SDI/HD-SDI outputs
and an SDI/HD-SDI input can be tied to SDI/HD-SDI and/or optical outputs. The
matrix switcher can route multiple input/output configurations simultaneously.

Figure 1-1 — Typical Fiber Matrix 6400 application
The Extron proprietary fiber optic signal, generated by FOX 500 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. The switcher has two internal, hot-
swappable 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 180-watt power supplies that provide
worldwide power compatibility and reliability.
