Extron FOX3 Matrix 320x no FPC (part number 60-1578-02) — the 12U modular fiber optic matrix frame supplied without the front panel controller. Extron lists this part as retired.
Mechanically and optically this is the same 320x chassis as the IPCP Pro version: 40 slots, each taking a FOX3 I/O 88 board with eight LC fiber ports, giving a switcher that grows from 8x8 to 320x320. What it does not carry is the integrated IPCP Pro Q xi control processor fitted to the IPCP Pro models. Control comes instead from the front panel USB configuration port, the rear RS-232 port and the Ethernet port, or remotely through an FPC 6000 Front Panel Controller.
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
- Mixes multimode and singlemode I/O boards in one frame, hot-swappable in the field
- RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet port reaches any FOX3 endpoint without extra cabling
- Priority Switching across six security levels and Secure Partitioning into up to six sub-switchers
- Redundant power supply fitted as standard on an IEC 60320 C20 inlet
Where It Is Used
Large fiber plants in government, military and medical facilities, entertainment venues, campuses and utility control rooms. Because the frame is retired, it is usually bought now as a spare or an expansion for an installed FOX3 system rather than as the basis of a new design.
