Audio input — The transmitters accept an unbalanced stereo or mono audio input on
a 3.5 mm mini jack.
Audio input gain/attenuation — The input audio level can be adjusted within a range
of -18 dB (attenuation) to +10 dB (gain) via the RS-232 port.
Audio output — The receivers output unbalanced stereo audio at the consumer level
(-10 dBV) on a 3.5 mm mini jack.
Links monitoring — The front panels of the transmitters and receivers have indicators
for monitoring image and audio transmission and both fiber optic links.
Loss-of-light alarms — The rear 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 Control Program — For RS-232 remote control, the Extron FOX
Extenders Control Program provides a graphical interface and drag-and-drop/point-
and-click operation.
Simple Instruction Set (SIS) — The transmitters and receivers use the SIS for easy
remote control operation.
Upgradable firmware — The firmware that controls the operation of each unit can be
upgraded via an RS-232 port. Firmware upgrades are available for download on the
Extron website and they can be installed using the FOX Extenders Control Program.
Memory presets — 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 — All FOXBOX Tx and Rx 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
