Connecting your Avio F120 unit

How it works

Matrox Avio consists of a transmitter unit and a receiver unit connected by a fiber optic cable.
A Matrox Avio environment is made up of four (4) areas defined around its transmitter and receiver
units:
Host – Connections between the host system and the transmitter unit. The computer is
the only host device. You must connect the main USB and monitors. To use the sound
connectors at the front of your transmitter or receiver units, you also need to connect the
sound input and output of your computer to the transmitter unit.
Host connections require male-to-male cables with the proper connectors.
Local – Connections to the transmitter unit to control the host system. These
connections are optional. Local devices can be a keyboard, a mouse, monitors, sound,
and USB devices.
Optical – Connection through a fiber optic cable between the Avio transmitter and the
receiver units.
Remote – Connections to the receiver unit to control the host system. Similar to the local
connection, you can connect these remote devices: keyboard, mouse, monitors, sound,
and USB HID devices.
