1Introduction
The ibaBM-FOX-i-3o device (Fiber Optics x 3) is designed to generate three parallel
optical output data streams from one incoming fiber optic signal data stream.
In addition, the incoming optical signal is refreshed (repeater functionality)
The maximum input baud rate can be up to 5.0 Mbit/s and can be used with the fol-
lowing iba devices/ PC-boards
TibaPADU-8, ibaPADU-16, ibaPADU-32
TibaPADU-8-O
TSLM Monitor
TibaPADU-8-ICP (only data stream to the PC)
TibaLink-SM-64-io, ibaLink-SM-128V-i-2o
TibaFOB x/4-F
TibaFOB-4i, ibaFOB-4, ibaFOB-4i-S
TibaFOB-io, ibaFOB-io-S
It is possible to monitor the data with a Notebook connected to the RJ45 jack via an
ibaCom-PCMCIA-F card (not for ibaPADU-8-ICP/ -8-M!).

2Package Contents
The package includes the following items:
TibaBM-FOX-i-3o device with 2-pole Phoenix connector (for power supply)
TibaBM-FOX-i-3o manual
3System Requirements
TPower supply 24 V DC
TSignal source (outputs of ibaPADU, ibaLink-SM- or ibaFOB card)
TSignal target (inputs of ibaPADU-8-O, ibaLink-SM- or ibaFOB card)
TPC, equipped with ibaFOB-card and software ibaPDA, ibaLogic or ibaQDR
TThe supported baud rates range from 2.0 Mbit/s up to 5 Mbit/s
4Installing the Device
Install:
Make sure the DIN-rail clip at the back of the device fits properly into the top edge of
the DIN-rail, then lightly press the device down – back into the DIN-rail. The device
will easily snap into the DIN-rail. After that connect the power supply and all necessary
connectors.
Removing the device:
First remove all connectors from the device.
With one hand press the top of the device slightly down to ensure that the device later
will be secure between both hands.
Place two fingers of the other hand under the bottom of the device and slightly push
the device upward. The device will easily remove from the DIN-rail.

5System Topologies
The ibaBM-FOX-i-3o provides the ability to multiply fiber optical links. This is possible
at each interconnection between iba devices, also between ibaPADU-8 and
ibaPADU-8-O devices. A variety of system topologies can be created. Applications can
vary from redundant I/O-systems, to measurement systems running in parallel to the
I/O system while reusing the same I/O devices. ibaBM-FOX-i-3o can also be simply
used for signal refreshing when fiber optic transmissions over 2000 m (6500 ft.) are
necessary.
6Functionality
The device provides the following functions:
T24 V DC power supply (18..32 V input voltage range).
TRugged, EMI-stable metal chassis with DIN-rail snap mount.
T3 status LEDs
TOne fiber optic input,
T3 fiber optic outputs
TSignal refreshing of the incoming data stream (bit refresh)
TDelay between input and output(s) max. 80 ns
