About the FOX Matrix Switchers
MIXING
The FOX Matrix Switchers (see gure 1 for a FOX Matrix 3200 example)
are congurable matrix switchers that distribute optical signals. Fiber
optic I/O boards route signals that are compatible with all Extron
FOX 500, FOXBOX, FOX, FOX 2G, and FOX HD-SDI ber optic product
lines. 3G/HD-SDI/SDI/ I/O boards route 3G, high denition serial digital
interface (HD-SDI), and serial digital interface (SDI) signals. The matrix
switcher routes any input signal to any combination of outputs. An
optical input can be tied to optical outputs, 3G/HD-SDI SDI outputs,
or both and an 3G/HD-SDI SDI input can be tied to 3G/HD-SDI/SDI
outputs, optical outputs, or both. The matrix switcher can route multiple
input/output congurations simultaneously.
NOTES:
• Compatible optical signals are digital signals from 270 Mbs
through 4.25 Gbps that are sent and received via ber optic
small form factor pluggable (SFP) modules.
• The FOX transmitter-to-receiver communications, including the
serial link, occupy one matrix switcher input and output. This
matrix switcher can also support the FOX return (receiver-totransmitter) serial communications, but returning this signal
stream to the transmitter occupies a separate matrix switcher
input and output.
The switcher has two internal, hot-swappable 100 VAC to 240 VAC,
50-60 Hz, 175-watt (FOX Matrix 3200) or 180-watt (FOX Matrix 7200)
power supplies that provide worldwide power compatibility and reliability.
Configurability and Transmission modes
The FOX Matrix Switchers are assembled from individual input/output
(I/O) boards. The switcher can include up to four (FOX Matrix 3200) or
nine (FOX Matrix 7200) I/O boards, each of which supports 8 inputs by
8 outputs. The four types of I/O boards are:
• Singlemode fiber optic 8x8 I/O board
• Multimode fiber optic 8x8 I/O board
• Singlemode pathological fiber optic 8x8 I/O board. This board
addresses the compatibility issues of passing pathological signals
generated from 3G HD-SDI, HD-SDI, and SDI signals over ber optic
systems
• 3G HD-SDI, HD-SDI, and SDI 8x8 I/O board
NOTE: As listed above, three versions of the fiber optic I/O boards
are documented in this manual. They are categorized by the type
of fiber optic cable, multimode or singlemode, which defines the
effective range of transmission:

• Singlemode — Very long distance, up to 30 km (18.75 miles)
NOTE: In this figure, the FOX 3G HD-SDI units
are set to bidirectional transceiver mode.
Figure 1. Typical FOX Matrix 3200 application
The Extron proprietary ber optic signal, generated by Extron ber
optic transmitters, can include video, stereo audio, and transmitterto-receiver RS-232 serial communications. The video component of
the signal can be RGB video, Digital Visual Interface (DVI) video, HDMI
video, 3G/HD-SDI/SDI video, or low resolution video, depending on the
transmitter and receiver.
The matrix switcher can be remotely controlled via its Ethernet LAN port
or either of two serial ports, one on the rear panel and one on the front
panel, using either the Windows-based Extron Matrix Switchers Control
• Multimode — Long distance, up to 300 m (984 feet)
By adding or removing I/O boards, you can expand and contract the FOX
Matrix Switchers from an 8-input by 8-output matrix to up to either:
• FOX Matrix 3200 — A 32-input by 32-output matrix
• FOX Matrix 7200 — A 72-input by 72-output matrix
NOTE: On a fiber optic I/O board as delivered from Extron, all
transceiver modules are configured the same: either all multimode
or all singlemode. You can mix multimode and singlemode fiber
optic I/O boards in a FOX matrix switcher, but you must ensure
that you connect the proper transmission mode fiber cables to the
board.

the necessary directories and folders and installs the programs.
LAN port Connection
The rst time you connect your PC to the switcher via the LAN port,
you may need to change the default settings (IP address, subnet
mask, and [optional] administrator name and password) on the
controller (see the "Conguring for Network Communication" in the
FOX Matrix 3200 and FOX Matrix 7200 User Guide.
Starting the Program

Built-in HTML Pages
Another way to congure and operate the switcher is via its factoryinstalled HTML pages, which are always available and cannot be erased
or overwritten. The HTML pages that are pre-loaded on the switcher
are accessible through its LAN port (item D on page 8), connected
via a LAN or WAN, using a web browser such as Microsoft® Internet
2. Choose the comm (serial) port that is connected to the switcher or IP
[LAN].
NOTE: For a comm port, check the
baud rate displayed in the Comm Port
Selection window. If you need to change
the baud rate, click the Baud button and
double-click the desired baud rate.
3. Click OK.
If you selected a serial port in step 2, the Matrix Switchers Control
Program is ready for operation.
4. If you selected IP [LAN] in step 2, the IP Connection window
appears.
Explorer®.
Configuring for Network Communication
The rst time you connect a PC to a switcher via its LAN port, you
may need to temporarily change the IP settings of the PC in order to
communicate with the controller. Then you must change the default
settings of the controller (IP address, subnet mask, and [optional]
administrator name and password) in order to use the unit on an intranet
(LAN) or on the Internet. After you have set up the FOX matrix switcher
for network communication, you can reset the PC to its original network
conguration.
NOTE: The computer and the switcher must both be connected
to the same subnet on a LAN (using a straight-through cable).
Alternatively, you can use a crossover Ethernet cable to connect the
controller directly to the computer.
Use the ARP command to congure the IP address as follows:
1. Obtain a valid IP address for the FOX matrix switcher from the
network administrator.
2. Obtain the MAC address (UID number) of the switcher from the
label on its rear panel. The MAC address should have this format:
00-05-A6-xx-xx-xx.
3. If the switcher has never been congured and is still set for factory
defaults, go to step 4. If not, perform a Mode 4 system reset. For
detailed information on reset modes, refer to “Reset Operations” in
the FOX Matrix 3200 and FOX Matrix 7200 User Guide.
NOTE: The switcher must be configured with the factory
default IP address (192.168.254.254) before the ARP command
is executed, as described below.
a. Examine the Matrix IP Address eld, which displays the last
Matrix IP address entered.
If necessary, enter the correct IP address in the eld.
NOTE: 192.168.254.254 is the factory-specified default
value for this field.
b. If the switcher is password-protected, enter the appropriate
4. At the PC, access the MS-DOS® command prompt, then enter the
arp –s command. Type in the desired new IP address for the unit
(obtained in step 1) and the MAC address of the unit (from the rear
panel of the unit). For example:
arp –s 10.13.197.7 00-05-A6-03-69-B0 and then press <Enter>.
After receiving the
the new address and starts responding to the ping requests, as
described in step 5.
arp -s command, the controller changes to
administrator or user password in the Password eld.
c. Click Connect. The Matrix Switchers Control Program is
ready for operation.

NOTE: You must ping the FOX matrix switcher as shown in
step 5 for the IP address change to take place. The response
should show the new IP address, as shown in the following
figure.
5. Execute a ping command by entering “ping” followed by a space and

4. Press the keyboard <Enter> key. The switcher checks to see if it is
password-protected.
If the switcher is not password-protected, it checks and
downloads the HTML start-up page. The switcher is ready for
operation via HTML remote control.
If the switcher is password-protected, it downloads the Enter
Network Password page.
NOTE: A User name entry is not required.
NOTE: You can reconnect using either Telnet or a Web browser
to verify that the update was successful.
6. After verifying that the IP address change was successful, enter and
issue the “arp –d” command at the DOS prompt. For example:
arp –d 10.13.197.7 removes 10.13.197.7 from the ARP table
or
arp –d* removes all static IP addresses from the ARP table.
5. Enter the appropriate administrator or user password in the Password
eld and click OK.
The switcher downloads the HTML start-up page (see gure 7). The
switcher is ready for operation via HTML remote control.

use with caution.
Do not look into the ber optic cable connectors or into the ber
optic cables themselves.
Plug the attached dust caps into the optical transceivers when the
ber cable is unplugged.
AVERTISSEMENT: L'appareil émet une lumière invisible en
continu, à utiliser avec precaution.
Ne regardez pas dans les connecteurs de câble bre optique sur
le panneau arrière ou dans les câbles bre optique eux-mêmes.
Branchez les protections contre la poussière dans l'ensemble
émetteur/récepteur lorsque le câble bre optique est débranché.
NOTES:
• On a ber optic I/O board as delivered from Extron, all transceiver
modules are congured the same: either all multimode or all
singlemode. You can mix multimode and singlemode ber
optic I/O boards in a FOX matrix switcher, but ensure that you
connect the proper transmission mode ber cables to the board.
• Typically, singlemode ber has a yellow jacket and multimode
cable has an orange or cyan jacket.
• For proper cooling and air ow, boards or blank panels should
be installed in all locations during normal switcher operations.
• See A Note on I/O Boards on page 5 to understand the
different arrangement of connectors on the I/O boards.
• The FOX Matrix Switcher components that are user-replaceable
are hot-swappable. You do not need to power down the
switcher to remove or replace a component.

ATTENTION:
• Do not touch the electronic components or the connectors
on the backplane or on the circuit boards without being
electrically grounded. Handle circuit boards by their edges
only. Electrostatic discharge can damage circuits, even if
you cannot feel, see, or hear it.
• Ne pas toucher les composants électroniques ou les
connecteurs sur la carte mère ou sur les circuits imprimés
sans être électriquement relié à la terre. Manipuler les
circuits imprimés en les tenant seulement par leurs bords.

ou l'entendre.
power supply) are identical. Each power supply module has a 2-color
LED, visible on the rear panel, that indicates the status of the power
supply outputs. If the LED is lit green, the power supply is operating
normally. If the LED is lit red, the supply has failed and should be
replaced at the earliest opportunity. LEDs with identical meaning are also
on the front panel.
ATTENTION:
• This unit uses double pole/neutral fusing. Do not operate the
equipment with only one power supply cord connected.
• Cette unité utilise double pôles/fusion neutre. N'utilisez
pas l'équipement avec seulement un cordon d'alimentation
connecté.
NOTE: Power supply modules are not interchangeable between
models.
