About the FOX HD-SDI  
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.  
Do not look into the rear panel fiber optic  
cable connectors or into the fiber optic cables,  
themselves.  
All transceivers in the system must be the same model (all  
singlemode or all multimode).  
N
Plug the attached dust caps into the optical  
transceivers when the fiber optic cable is  
unplugged.

opposite corners.  
(2) 4-40 x 3/16"  
Screws  
Circuit overloading — Consideration should be given to  
the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and  
the effect that overloading of the circuits might have on  
overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate  
consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be  
used when addressing this concern.  
Figure 2-1 — Mounting the transceiver on a  
VersaTools rack shelf  
On the non-VersaTools rack shelves, the transceiver unit can be  
mounted in the front or the rear of the rack.  
5.  
Reliable earthing (grounding) — Reliable earthing  
of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.  
Particular attention should be given to supply connections  
other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as  
the use of power strips).  
1.  
2.  
If installed, remove the feet from the bottom of the unit.  
Mount the unit on the shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16" screws  
in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure the unit to the

The length of the exposed (stripped) copper wires  
is important. The ideal length is 3/16" (5 mm).  
Longer bare wires can short together. Shorter wires  
are not as secure in the connectors and could be  
pulled out.

indicates that the FOX HD-SDI transceiver is receiving power.  
Rate indicators — These LEDs light to indicate the detected  
input video rate, either on the HD/SDI input BNC (if configured  
as a transmitter) or on the Optical Rx connector (if configured as  
a receiver or bidirectional transceiver). The recognized rates are  
270 Mbps, 1.485 Gbps, or 2.97 Gbps.  
When the Rate Unknown LED lights, this indicates that an input  
is detected, either on the HD/SDI input BNC (if configured as  
a transmitter) or on the Optical Rx connector (if configured as a  
receiver or bidirectional transceiver), but that the FOX HD-SDI  
does not recognize the rate.  
All four Rate LEDs blink repeatedly if a fiber optic  
connector module on the rear of the unit is unseated.

The FOX HD-SDI equalizes and distributes the input  
whether it recognizes the rate or not.

Fiber Compatibility Indications  
You must use the proper fiber cable for your transceivers.  
Each transceiver indicates its fiber compatibility, singlemode or  
multimode, at power-up by blinking the four Rate indicators.  
Multimode — The Rate LEDs blink once.  
Singlemode — The Rate LEDs blink twice.  
To determine the fiber cable type, observe the cable jacket.  
Typically, singlemode fiber cable has a yellow jacket and  
multimode fiber cable has an orange jacket.  
N
All transceivers in the system must be the same model (all  
singlemode or all multimode). Mixed transmission mode  
units will not work together.
