Extron FOX3 Matrix 320x IPCP Pro (part number 60-1578-12) — 12U modular fiber optic matrix frame with an Extron control processor built in.
The frame carries 40 board slots. Each slot takes a FOX3 I/O 88 board with eight LC fiber ports, so the switcher grows from 8x8 to 320x320 as the installation grows, and boards can be swapped hot without powering the chassis down. Multimode and singlemode boards may be mixed in the same frame, which lets a short in-building multimode link feed a long singlemode run out of the same matrix. Video, audio, USB, RS-232 control and 3D sync all travel on the same fiber pairs.
Key Capabilities
- Routes 4K at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma over HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.3, 18.0 Gbps maximum video data rate
- 8x8 to 320x320 unidirectional, or 4x4 to 160x160 bidirectional when ports are linked
- Integrated IPCP Pro Q xi processor with a dedicated AV LAN port, standard LAN port and USB-C configuration port
- Two Dante ports carrying up to 32 stereo channels each way, plus a DMP expansion port
- Priority Switching across six security levels and Secure Partitioning into up to six sub-switchers
- Redundant power supply fitted as standard, with hot-swappable I/O boards
Where It Is Used
This is enterprise-scale infrastructure: government and military operations centres, hospital and medical imaging networks, broadcast and entertainment venues, university campuses and utility control rooms. The security model, with per-port classification levels and partitioning, is aimed squarely at sites handling more than one data classification on the same fiber plant.
