Overview

The Extron FOX DA8 is an Eight Output Fiber Optic Distribution Amplifier for distribution and long haul transmission of incoming fiber optic AV and RS-232 control signals over a single fiber. It provides eight optical outputs for distribution to FOX Series fiber optic receivers, switchers, or matrix switchers, each via a single fiber link. It features very high-speed, all-digital distribution of pixel-perfect standard definition video, high resolution computer-video, DVI-D, and multi-rate SDI. It also features active optical signal splitting so that original transmitter power levels are maintained for all outputs. Designed specifically for AV systems, the FOX DA8 includes a host of integrator-friendly features such as RS-232 control, rack-mount capability, and the ability to mute one or more outputs.
