- Page 3 Installation Site Install the unit in a place where the following conditions are met: The temperature and the relative humidity of the operating environment must be within the specified limits during operation of the unit. Values specified are applicable to the air inlets of the unit. Condensation may not be present during operation. If the unit is installed in a location subject to large variations of ambient temperature (e.g. in an OB‐van), appropriate precautions must be taken. Unobstructed airflow is essential for proper operation. Ventilation openings of the unit are a functional part of the design and must not be obstructed in any way during operation (e.g. ‐ by objects placed upon them, placement of the unit on a soft surface, or improper installation of the unit within a rack or piece of furniture). The unit must not be unduly exposed to external heat sources (direct sunlight, spot lights). Ambient Temperature Units and systems by FiberPlex are generally designed for an ambient temperature range (i.e. temperature of the incoming air) of 5 °C to 40 °C (41 °F to 104 °F). When rack mounting the units, the following facts must be considered: The permissible ambient temperature range for operation of the semiconductor components is 0 °C to +70 °C (32 °F to 158 °F) (commercial temperature range for operation). The airflow through the installation must allow exhaust air to remain cooler than 70 °C (158 °F) at all times. Average temperature increase of the cooling air shall be about 20 °C (68 °F), allowing for an additional maximum 10 °C increase at the hottest components. If the cooling function of the installation must be monitored (e.g. for fan failure or illumination with spot lamps), the exhaust air temperature must be measured directly above the modules at several places within the enclosure. Grounding and Power Supply Grounding of units with mains supply (Class I equipment) is performed via the protective earth (PE) conductor integrated in three‐pin Phoenix™ connector. Units with battery operation (< 60 V, Class III equipment) must be earthed separately. Grounding the unit is one of the measures for protection against electrical shock hazard (dangerous body currents). Hazardous voltage may not only be caused by defective power supply insulation, but may also be introduced by the connected audio or control cables. This equipment may require the use of a different line cord, attachment plug, or both, depending on the available power source at installation. If the attachment plug needs to be changed, refer servicing to qualified personnel. ...

Page 5: Theory Of Operation
Introduction The true “Swiss Army Knife” of fiber optic transport, the FOI‐6012 in conjunction with any combination of a myriad of FiberPlex or third party SFP/SFP+ (Small Form‐Factor Pluggable) optical & electrical modules, allows you to transport what you want, when you want it, how you want it, wherever you want it; all over one product solution... The FiberPlex FOI‐6012 and SFP/ SFP+ module should be in everyone’s toolbox. Key Features Ultra flexible SFP+ to SFP+ Dual TX/RX interface Supports Data Rates up to 12.5 Gbps USB interface for full access to all SFP standard and custom registers Limitless Conversion applications including but not limited to: Video distribution Analog Video to Fiber Conversion SD‐SDI (composite) to HD video conversion MADI to Fiber Conversion OM1/OM2 to OM3 Multi‐mode Conversion Optical Repeater Multimode to Singlemode Fiber Conversion Theory of Operation Many sorts of interfaces, not just fiber, are now available in the SFP/SFP+ format, including Full HD video and networking. On the user, connector side, they support the signals appropriate to those protocols, but then convert them internally to a standard stream of high‐speed serial data. The FOI/TD‐6012 connects those standard streams together, so that the different interface protocols can talk the same language. Since the fiber‐based SFPs are the most generic, it is usually possible to connect, not only two different copper interfaces together in the same FOI/TD‐6012, but also to interpose a fiber link between them. Since the range of signals over fiber is so much greater than that of copper, this allows significant expansion of the range of those protocols. SFPs also have an additional, low‐speed serial interface that provides identification, monitoring and also control of the devices through the processor in the FOI/TD‐6012. The FOI‐6012 and TD‐6012 support dual transmit and dual receive SFP and SFP+ ONLY. For standard MSA and non‐MSA transceivers use the FOI‐6010 or TD‐6010. Differences between FOI‐6012 and TD‐6012 Functionally, the FOI‐6012 and TD‐6012 are identical. The only differences are the packaging and power supply. The FOI‐6012 is part of the FOI line of products designed for ruggedized mil applications. It is housed in the familiar FOI shielded can enclosure. For standalone applications it can be powered by adding a PSQ‐4909 AC supply or a PSQ‐4920 DC power supply (not included). Optionally, up to 8 FOI units can be mounted on ... -

Page 10: Handling Warnings
Inserting and Removing SFP Modules Handling Warnings SFP Modules are static sensitive. To prevent damage from electrostatic discharge (ESD), it is recommended to attach an ESD preventative wrist strap to your wrist and to a bare metal surface when you install or remove an SFP Module. Disconnect all optical or copper cables from SFP Modules prior to installing or removing the SFP Module. Failure to do so could result in damage to the cable, cable connector or the SFP Module itself. Removing and inserting an SFP Module can shorten its useful life, so you should not remove and insert SFP Modules any more often than is absolutely necessary. Protect optical SFP modules by inserting clean dust covers into them after the cables are removed. Be sure to clean the optic surfaces of the fiber cables before you plug them back into the optical ports of another SFP module. Avoid getting dust and other contaminants into the optical ports of your SFP modules, because the optics will not work correctly when obstructed with dust. Identify the Latch Type of the SFP Module SFP Modules have various latching mechanisms to secure them into the SFP Cage of a device. The FiberPlex WDM can support a host of manufacturers and brands of SFP Modules so the user may encounter any number of different latches. Some of these are described below. Bail Clasp Actuator Button The bail clasp SFP module has a clasp The actuator button SFP module includes a button that you that you use to remove or install the SFP push in order to remove the SFP module from a port. This module. button can either lift ‘Up’ or press ‘In’ to release the SFP Module depending on the manufacturer.

Page 12: Other Considerations
Other Considerations USB FiberPlex Auxilary Control (uFAC) Interface The FOI‐6012 includes a uFAC (FiberPlex Auxiliary Control over USB) interface which allows read write access to status and parameter registers in both installed SFP/ SFP+ modules if supported by Fiberplex. This port communicates over a USB 2.0‐compliant, full speed connection, via a USB Micro‐B connector. It enumerates as a custom Fiberplex device, requiring its own driver. Please contact Fiberplex Technologies for details and availability of the applications built around this interface. Although power can be supplied across the port, it is recommended that the appropriate external supply for the TD/FOI‐6012 be used. Power supplied through the USB port itself is not sufficient to power the device with SFPs installed. Video Optimization The Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers, or SMPTE, is a leader in the development of standards for film, television, and other video. The Serial Digital Interface or SDI, was standardized by SMPTE for broadcast quality digital video transmission. Other standards evolved from this original standard, defining Enhanced, High‐definition (HD), 3G‐SDI (1080p) and Ultra High‐definition (UHD), or 4K video (2160p). To help ensure error‐free transmission, the standards include a data scrambler / descrambler to create a high density of transitions in the serial data, making it easier for the receiver to maintain timing. Where an encoding method such as 8B‐10B ensures a minimal sequential run of all ones or zeros, it does so at the cost of a 25% increase in bandwidth requirements. The scrambler / descrambler method does not require this, but as a result there are certain combinations of scrambler state and the next data bits to be scrambled that result in a sequence of up to twenty consecutive ones or zeros. These sequences are referred to as pathological conditions, and are present in specific shades of pink or grey. These pathological conditions may create errors in transmission through typical AC coupled optics, or any other AC coupled interface. Video Enhanced or SMPTE Compliant optics are designed to accept these pathological conditions, allowing the longer sequences of ones or zeros to pass without error. ... - Page 13 SFP MSA Compliance The SFP Multi‐Source Agreement (MSA) is an agreement that was drafted among competing manufacturers of SFP optical modules. The SFF Committee was formed to oversee the creation and maintenance of these agreements including the SFP MSA designated as INF‐8074i. This agreement describes a mutually agreed upon standard for the form and function of SFP modules. However, not all SFPs produced are MSA compliant. The MSA provides for a transceiver (TX/RX) pinout. Other industries such as broadcast had the need for dual TX and dual RX SFP for unidirectional applications such as video. Naturally, a non‐MSA standard was introduced allocating pinout assignments for dual output and dual input I/O configurations. In addition, the some of the internal serial communication pins were reassigned. The FOI/TD‐6012 will only accept non‐MSA Dual TX and Dual RX pinout schemes. The following table shows the differences in these pinouts. Pinout Comparison Chart PIN Transceiver (MSA) Transceiver (Non‐MSA) Dual TX (Non‐MSA) Dual RX (Non‐MSA) 1 VEE VEE VEE VEE 2 TX_FAULT [VEE] VEE NC Rx2‐ 3 TX_DIS NC NC Rx2+ 4 MOD_DEF(2) ‐ SDA VEE VEE VEE 5 MOD_DEF(1) ‐ SCL SCL ...
