Extron Fox3

The new Fox3 series fiber optic HDMI extenders 111 of Extron Provide secure long-distance transmission of HDMI video with embedded audio over fiber optic cable.

Manufactured for exceptional high-resolution image performance, use Extron all-digital technology to provide a mathematically perfect transmission of images up to 4K/60 a 4:4:4 through a fiber optic cable.

Fox3 Series Extenders 111 Support data rates up to 18 Gbps and are designed to deliver mathematically lossless video images up to 4096×2160 a 60 Hz con chroma sampling 4:4:4. Maintain a rate of frames of 60 Hz with a color space 4:4:4 Ensures smooth transitions of moving video frames and maintains the details of high-quality computer images, as CAD designs.

These extenders are compatible with the complete line of Fox3 matrix switchers. Fox3 matrix switchers are available in standard sizes up to 840×840, as well as in designs adapted up to 2000×2000 and above. Fox3 Systems allow from the point to point extension up to applications with matrices of 2000×2000 and higher without switching restrictions and with total reliability.

Extron's new proposal is capable of sending and receiving HDMI video with embedded stereo audio over very long distances through fiber optic cabling. They are puerto Ethernet Enabling proactive control and monitoring over LAN, WAN o Internet. The Fox3 are available in multimode models 850 nm for transmissions over moderate distances up to 500 meters and in single-mode models 1310 nm for extreme distances of until 20 kilometers.

Designed for safe environments

Fox3 HDMI Extenders 111 they have HDMI protocol security to ensure a secure HDMI connection between source and destination. Consumer Electronics Control (CEC), Ethernet signal transport and Return Audio Channel signal paths (ARC) are not supported on secure HDMI connections.

Additionally, Fox3 systems use two methods to ensure that the confidential data are separated and protected correctly with the possibility of priority switching and creating secure partitions. Priority switching assigns a security level to each input and output. An output can only be linked to an input with an equal or lower security level, preventing unauthorized access to sensitive data. This switching is useful in systems with multiple levels of security classification.

The creation of secure partitions allows dividing the switching matrix into small auxiliary matrices to separate sources and destinations into partitions. Sources can only be routed to destinations within the same partition. Any attempt to link an input to an output in different partitions is prohibited, returning an error code.
