Product Description
The FOX3T201 transmitter is a ultra-high performance fiber optic extender for long haul
transmission of the following over two fiber optic cables (see figure1 on page2):
• Uncompressed or visually lossless HDCP-compliant 4096x2160 or 3840x2160 (UHD)
@60Hz video HDMI video
• 2-CH LPCM audio
• RS-232 and IR control signals
The transmitter extends HDMI signals up to:
• 20 km (12.4 miles) for the singlemode cables
• 500 m (1640 feet) with 50 µm OM4 4700 MHz bandwidth laser optimized multimode
cables
(see Fiber Cable Transmission Modes on page2).
The transmitter converts the HDMI video, the selected audio, and the RS-232 serial
