About the HFX 100 Tx and HFX 100 Rx The Extron HFX 100 HDMI extender comprises of a transmitter (Tx) and receiver (Rx) pair, which use one multimode fiber optic cable to transmit a signal up to 300 meters (984 feet). The transmitter accepts a single HDMI input and converts it to a proprietary signal that is sent over the fiber optic cable to the receiver. The receiver converts the signal back to an HDMI output. The extender supports DDC and HDCP pass-through. Features Signal extender — converts the HDMI signal to a proprietary format that can be carried up to 300 meters (984 feet) without loss of signal integrity. Power supply — Both the transmitter and receiver are powered by a 12 VDC, 1A power supply (provided). Display Data Channel (DDC) pass-through — ensures that the resolution and refresh rate of the video input signal matches the capabilities of the display device. High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) pass-through — ensures that HDCP-compliant outputs are able to display HDCP-encrypted content. 1 HFX 100 Tx and HFX 100 Rx • User Guide Application Diagram Extron HFX 100 Tx Transmitter 00 X1 HF Tx WER PO V 12 MAX A -- UT TP OU T PU IN Up to 300m ( 984 ft ) on Multimode Fiber HDMI Extron HFX 100 Rx Receiver FL OSE N/CL OFF USB OPE I HDM 00 X1 HF S PQL WER PO V 12 MAX A -- Rx T PU IN ON DBY/ STAN Blu-ray Player UT TP OU HDMI Flat Panel Display Figure 1.

When power is provided to the unit but there is no HDMI input, the front panel lights amber. ATTENTION: • Always use a power supply provided by or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product. • Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities. The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron AV processing equipment in an ordinary location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium, or desk. • The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 725 and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to building structure or similar structure. NOTES: b • The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm). If it is any longer, the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit between them. If it is any shorter, the wires can be easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws. • Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its shape and can become loose over time. HDMI input connector — Connect a HDMI output to this male connector. NOTE: With appropriate DVI-D to HDMI cables or adapters, the unit will accept DVI-D input. When the transmitter is receiving an HDMI input signal, the front panel LED lights green. 3 HFX 100 Tx and HFX 100 Rx • User Guide c Optical output connector — Connect one end of one multimode fiber optic cable (not provided) into this LC connector. The other end connects into the LC input connector on the HFX 100 Rx. The cable can be up to 300 meters (984 feet) in length. CAUTION: • Possible damage to eyesight. The HFX 100 Tx outputs continuous laser (Class 1 rated), which may be harmful and dangerous to the eyes; use with caution. Do not look into the rear panel fiber optic cable connector or into the fiber optic cable itself. Plug the attached dust cap into the optical transceiver when the fiber optic cable is unplugged. • Possible radiation exposure. Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures other than those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.

Rack Mounting UL guidelines for rack mounting The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines are relevant to the safe installation of these products in a rack: Elevated operating ambient temperature — If the units are installed in a closed or multi-unit rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the equipment in an environment compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma: +122 °F, +50 °C) specified by Extron. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in the rack so that the equipment gets adequate air flow for safe operation. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that uneven mechanical loading does not create a hazardous condition. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Consider the equipment nameplate ratings when addressing this concern. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections to the branch circuit (such as the use of power strips). Rack mounting procedure To mount the unit on a rack shelf, follow the instructions provided with the shelf accessories.
